What would you think of these Bricks if they were at let's say $200 instead of $800+?

Do you think more people would have bought them or do you think that the hype built up around them only did so because of their crazy price point?

I see these fuckboy and e-girl or whatever the fuck they are called, these types wear them. I dgaf if they are real or fake, they look laughable and pathetic

think they would have been a little more popular but they are quite outrageous. When i see young girls wear these and i know they didnt pay for them themselves i just laugh. parents are just mongs.

They have a really unique silhouette and why can't we have oversized shoes if we already have oversized clothing?

The multicoloured pairs look horrible but the monochromatic ones can look great with the right fit

>crazy price point
They are in line with other designer sneakers, the og ones were made in Italy but the later versions in china, those are the real overpriced version.
>Brick
No, for 200 they are in line with sneakers like yeezys or ozweegos at the time. So they would sell even more, I remember when they were sold out everywhere.
Anyways, they were only good in the runaway show, I like how they were used in the show with office suits. When normal people/"fashion experts" got their hands on them the shit show started, pretty much no one pulled them off.
Thankfully 2017 was a long time ago... and I blame them for one of the worst trends in the last years: the fila disruptors.

they make people look like they have those robo legs attached to a shoe

I wouldn’t buy them nor would them take for free if i wasn’t allowed to sell or gift them. They are too clunky, too far away from a matching design to the human foot. The highest price i ever spent for a sneaker was 100€ a few days ago for the mexico 66 sd.

Even at $800 I still feel like I saw them consistently enough. Granted I do live in NYC am around the SoHo area but damn, I consistently see them paired poorly.

people buy cheap alternatives to these so i assume they are hated because they are expensive

they look cute on girls

They were the amalgamation of the chunky shoe trend and were very polarizing. Not my bag but I don't blame people for liking them.

>> No.15021626

I think they're dope when paired with the right clothes. Too often you see them in terrible fits tho
Wanted these, but considering the shit build quality 800 is just too much. If the retail was around $400 definitely would have copped

They were made with the assumption that they'd only be worn by people who knew how to construct an outfit.

Not hypebeast niggers and e-boys.

there are good oversized shoes and these aint it, chief

OP, these only got hype because of the price and the brand name. the cost bars poorfags and even most better off people from buying them so they only really see their favorite celeb wearing them. there are plenty of $200-ish shoes that actually look good (and get hyped to a point where they cost more on the resale market) that actually look good.

also theres a LOT of fakes of these and the people who wear them real or not really ruin it further
