>actually buying full price CP

dude...

you fell for the oldest /fa/ troll in the book

common projects isn't designer sorry bro

and yeah people do get surprised when you tell them you bought an expensive pair of basic as fuck sneakers. People are more understanding when they are interesting-looking designer sneakers

>>7509394
not op here

but no he didnt youre just new

>>7509394
you did by not buying fresh new CPs, pleb

People make fun of me for spending $500 on my jacket. It was $2100 new. I ain't even mad, $500 for a camel leather jacket from a designer I love.

Fuck em

OP here.
Paid $280 for new, no tax, & free shipping from UK to Murica'.
Feels good.

Fishing for compliments to validate a purchase. Stay thirsty.

>>7509410
Was the jacket from Hermes? That's the only brand with those sort of prices.

>>7509390
I used to be like that OP.
>brother turns 18
>gets a job
>spends all his money on 100s of shitty $120+ sneakers and other shit he doesn't wear
>I buy a pair of KVA HTs and some Wang shirts
>teach her the difference between quality and quantity
>she no longer complains that my clothes are "expensive"

>>7509427
Not reading that people were arguing about how much I paid for them.

>>7509394
>>7509394
nah
CP's are a bit overpriced sure but buying them for full price is hardly "falling for a troll"
im assuming youve never owned a pair

i op shopped(thrifted) a dope as fug fur/suede jacket recently for like $35usd equivalent, getting mad compliments. idk its retail price but i'd guess somewhere between $200 and $400, and there's nothing wrong with it at all. fits me absolutely perfect and suits me better than I thought it would.
feels good man

>>7509439
>his
>her
can you re-write that explaining who is who.

>>7509465
read OPs story
>b-but mom, it's quality
both stories about our moms

>>7509439
that feel when i googled KVA HT and it came up with high tension transformers, like for phone lines. i loled imagining you buying that and bringing it home and lecturing your mom about shoe quality. with that just sitting on the counter. now i feel retarded.

KVA is a designer kristoph vanne ashe

HT is probably high tops but I have nooo fucking idea why he abbreviated it like that

Your purchase will look pretty dumb until its been a while and they're still holding up strong.

Also paying full price for them flat out retarded if you're a college student, or if it costs more than a days worth of pay.

>2013
>falling for the overpriced plain sneaker troll

so new.

>>7511532
youre the newfag here, cps are not a troll. the design is amazing and the quality is nice.

>>7511529

>there is people on /fa/ RIGHT NOW who doesnt own at least one pair of cps

So much money is wasted on 'designer' clothing. Attempting to be /fa/ and unique then paying out the ass for deconstructed>reconstructed items is moronic.

>have my eye on a pair of shoes for a while

>>7511649
i didnt even say that you fucking asshole

Hey guys, it's great that you're spending a lot of money on some sneakers that look almost like other sneakers costing less than a half of what yours do. I respect it, that's your choice. It's your money, and they're your sneakers.

But please, don't come and tell me what should I do.

>>7511655

Google: Common Projects

you should feel bad, those shoes look worth $40 from payless

>>7509399
>interesting looking
I hate that. I mean seriously, to be worth money, things shouldn't have to be over-designed and covered in shit. and it's not even entirely true, because people would be surprised at adirafs costing that much.

>>7509390
>i don't think you understand designer

herewego.jpg

>>7512943
Being designed by people with names doesn't make it designer. I don't think you or OP "understand designer".

>>7513046
youre uneducated and stupid. you dont know shit about design and youre not interested in design. get the fuck out.

>>7511627
>dressing to show off wealth/for other people
>ever
seriously, do you only see worth in things covered in gold and diamonds so everyone can physically see your wealth on you. primitive cunt.

>>7513046
What makes something designer then?

Buy a pair of Black "Shoes for Crews" or something
they look exactly the same

>>7509390
tell her that used cps sell for hundreds.
i can't blame her for brow beating you for it, though. she's doing her mom duties

>>7513085
show me shoes that look exactly like cps. i dare you.

>Hey anon check out my new Armani jeans, they were £200 in the sale down from £300, cool huh?
>Hey anon, how come your jeans are so stiff?
>Oh they're APC jeans I haven't worn in yet
>How much were they?
>£125
>Wow, £125 for a pair of plain jeans from a brand I've never even heard of

I didn't even bother trying to explain.

>poorfags trying to feel better about being poor

It's okay you don't have to get mad on the internet because you can't afford nice shoes.

Veja sneakers look pretty similar.

Spending £200 on plimsoles is dumb as fuck.

>>7513568
they dont

Moms are the best. Luv u mum

>>7513586
theyre knockoffs and they will fall apart within a month.
seriously? zara? thats the best you can do?

>>7513598

Because your overpriced ones are handcrafted by elves with magically sealed seams.

>>7513605
have you ever touched zara footwear?

>>7513605
Srsly mang, Zara is total shit quality

I would only ever buy a tee from there

>>7513598
lol not they won't, stop kidding yourself. If you want to to buy expensive shoes, do it, don't pretend quality is your main concern.

>>7513624
Sure they won't actually fall apart in a month if you take decent care of them but they're not going to last as long as a set of CPs

>>7513586
ever seen them from a top perspective?

lol

>>7513624
oh please, i babied my vans in high school and they never lasted more than 6 or 7 months at best
i take care of my nicer sneakers but i still wear them rough. they look nearly new still

>mfw CP's are the Clarks Desert Boot of 2013
>Every fuccboi has a pair

It's going to be cool to hate them in 2014

>>7513690
too expensive to become widespread like that

>>7513652
But vans have that really thin canvas, even those cheap zara shoes will last longer. If the sole starts to detach you can have that fixed for next to nothing. The problem with them is probably not being very comfortable.

>>7513690
>oh man these shoes I used to like have become popular I'm going to hate them now and make fun of people who wear them
yeah you're the only fuccboi here

>>7509799
they have $2400 wallets

it's not even like whale foreskin, just plain old leather

People have asked me where I got some of my SLP stuff from and when I tell them I have to pronounce Saint Laurent exactly as it's spelt (so not the correct French pronunciation.) otherwise they just give me a confused look.
