Give me ONE FUCKING REASON Why I shouldn't just buy chink fakes.

The ONLY people who will know are insecure /fa/gs who i don't care for anyway, normies dont know or give a shit but will still praise you for looking good.

There is NO REASON to pay more.
Of course i'm not exclusively referring to glasses, literally anything in general.

>> No.12558894

Quality of materials and production tends to be much worse with fakes therefore they're less comfy

If the difference in that regard is non-existant than sure, why not

Thinking about some DHgate Ultra Boost reps. Not to pass off as legit, but to beat on, saving miles on my real boosts. As long as the boost material is similar to retail and they don't fall apart, I'll be happy.

>> No.12558911

>>12558898
isn't boost material patented and shit?
I seriously doubt any replicas would be comparable in comfort

>> No.12558933

>>12558894
Since companies outsourced their manufacturing factories to third world countries wouldn't the quality be comparable?

>> No.12558939

>>12558933
that's only if you buy shit-tier clothing just for the logo, which is the most pleb thing possible
for any actual quality designer clothing fakes are pretty retarded. just buy the real thing used or on sale. unless it never goes on sale because you're hypebeast trash that only buys hyped shit

>> No.12558941

well, big brands tend to fuck employees over but they're usually don't skimp on meterials and the factory itself

There are definitely bad fakes around. But look at recent YouTube videos and you'll find some convincing reps.

>> No.12558962

>>12558951
I'm not talking about convincing, I'm talking about quality and comfort
What's the point of wearing some hip shit if it fits poorly, fall's apart after month or two or just uncomfortable to wear?
I myself never cared for expensive clothing but when I tried to actually wear it, I changed my mind, it just feels so much better than average. Of course there's tons of uncofortable and expensive clothing but fuck this shit completely, no one should wear it.

>> No.12558977

I can almost understand wanting to buy reps of something that's worth like $1,000+, maybe you want to test the look or something, I wouldn't do it myself but I can at least understand it

But how fucking poor do you have to be to buy reps of fucking Ray-Bans or adidas? These aren't expensive to begin with.

Okay fuck everyone in this thread first of all
My dude, get fakes if no one will roast your ass for them, make sure they look legit, and remember that you not only pay for name but also quality of the plastics and the actual UV protection. It can and will fuck your eyes up if you have cheap tinted plastic. Fuck it tho, be wavvy my dude

Aren't fakes just damaged or fucked up but still from the original factory?

I have those in black. They look like shit in person (super glossy and cheap) and have a strong chemical smell. The lenses are almost flat and several people told me they look like 3D glasses. Also they don't have UV protection so wearing them in the sun is actually worse than not wearing sunglasses at all.

fugggg, I ordered them a couple of days ago so I haven't got them
