The aesthetics is like a fusion of nike rooshrun/y-3 qasa/adidas rick owens tech runner. But more minimalist.

>>9512541
My grammar sucks, I know...

>>9512606
Feels good man

>>9512584
Idiot

>>9512644
Can't accept the truth can you.

>>9512606
>they sell a lot of clothes and make a lot of money

yeah and those clothes are awful quality, fall apart quickly, use bad materials, are poorly designed/rushed, and have as bad (if not worse) a markup as designer clothes.

do you know why zara can make billions by selling things for $60 ? because those things cost like 26 cents to make and a dollar to land into a store.

>>9512584
Holy shit have you ever seen kids shoes? Half of the shoes look like this.

>>9512675
Because you know Zara decided to make plain white shoes with velcro straps just like kids shoes out of nowhere.

Those are some kind of gross Huarache x Roshe combo.

>>9512691
No, you're right. It takes the genius of Raf Simons to come up with such a groundbreaking shoe.

>>9512658

This. All of their materials are crap cheap ass synthetics.

Dudes... This fucking shit is velcro...

ITT: Poorbois who've never owned anything designer trying to justify buying Zara and getting BTFO'd

>>9512738
This argument is the ultimate underage spotter.

>>9512769
funny i thought calling people underage was the ultimate underage spotter

because honestly who was even thinking about underage before you brought that shit up

>>9512718
What ever helps you poorfags sleep at night.

>>9512769
>>9512779

Get called out, kid

Zara is alright for basics, bought a bunch of t-shirts, long sleeves and sweatpants there, the fitting is great and the quality is alright.
I wouldn't buy jawns, jackets or any of their more 'expensive' items tho.

Hey m8, not even American, but Wal-Mart is god-tier shopping

>>9512817
Why do you think people buy the stuff in Walmart? Because they accept the low price and therebefore they are ok with the chain instead

>>9512858
>Why do you think people buy the stuff in Walmart?

because the majority of the profits of all labor go into the hands of the few and the unlaborious. therefore the unfairly compensated laborers, who are kept at the brink of unanxious living, must squeeze their pennies as hard as they can.

also some people just don't know any better or care about the overall quality of an item as long as it completes what they see as its intended purpose. it's clothes? does it cover my body? good enough

>>9512530
Idem

>implying i would spend $350 for a poorly constructed animaymay shoe
>implying i would spend $50 for an even shittier imitation

How does Zara quality compare to regular Adidas / nike etc?

>>9512779
>>9512785
Okay kids, let me try to explain it to you: I know these shoes were a huge investment for you, because you blew all your Xmas and Birthday money on 'em, but trust me: almost everyone working in a Western country can afford them, most people just don't want to. So please do me a favour and stop calling other people poor because they don't like whatever emptied your piggybank.

>>9513188
poorboi alert

>>9512606
They have high revenue and sell lots, but so does walmart. Does that mean that walmart is god tier shopping to you?

Zara develops products fast because all their desgins are derivative..

Good business model for sure, good products not so much..

>>9512643
So derivative garbage, the minimalist version?

>>9512658
Zara is the type of company to call a product "wool blazer" but it's 100% polyester. Not sure if they do that for more stuff but a few examples like that wa slinked here a while ago.

>>9512562
they look like velcro GATS to me

At the end of the day - here is the difference between me and Zara / knockoff shoppers.

I look down at my feet and feel good that I can afford a $750 sneaker with my job and lifestyle.

You look down at your feet and feel shame for having to fork out €50 on a pair of shitty shoes that look kind of like the real thing and now you have to forgo one of your non-ramen meals for the week.

When will poorfags learn that part of the appeal of expensive sneakers is that it's a mark of wealth?

>>9513582
this is what the average gucci customer actually believes

>>9512517
I'd wear em
I like cheap unbranded sneakers heh

>>9513587
>fa riddled with replica and cp alternative threads
>now this thread

>people really debating if they should pull on zara

>>9513587

Yes but Gucci is gaudy and tasteless. I was not making the point of "buying them for the sake of buying them" which is what many Gucci / Buscemi / GZ buyers do. But it's reassuring and empowering to know that your shoes are legit and that you can afford that lifestyle.

>>9513582
i think you're projecting way too much here,
i doubt just cause someone bought a replica or a fashion piece that was inspired by something else, that they'd feel shame for it, for god sakes there's like a fucking handful of ppl in each city that would even know what brand or designer you're even talking about let alone give a shit about it
everyone thinks that everyone cares about their specific subculture, but guess what? nobody really does, most ppl think as long as you dont dress like a neckbeard that you're fine, and dont think anything past that and thats the truth, just like with places like /fit/ most ppl think as long as you're not fat and you have a little muscle your ripped, regular society has very low standards and dont really give 2 shits about small subcultures like these, so fuck off with your elitest ego cause nobody gives a shit if you're rockin some clown meme shoes that cost $800

>>9513636
what the fuck is that

>>9513646
/fa/'s most holyest of grails

>>9513582
>when you go full materialistic
>doesn't have a wife or kids or even a gf
Yeah, when you turn 25, maybe you'll start to realize your clothing doesn't matter for shit but rather the important shit like owning a nice car and house, having friends and family. I doubt you even talk to women because you just sit in the corner thinking why no one is noticing your $1000+ fit.

>>9513667
>things that ugly, old balding people actually believe

>>9513667

Nice projection but I am actually 25 with a car, home, and a fiancé living with me. Kinda made your argument fall a bit flat m8.

>>9513664
like, are those actually real or...

>>9513701
>being this retarded

Yeah ive seen these irl, actually really really crap. Looks more like af1s rather than cps cz theyre bulkier up front. Id say its comparable to taobao stuff from what you guys describe here but then again ive never handled taobao so...
