the whole authentic vs replica thing always seemed lame to me...i mean i know there's the subtle differences in the look but in some cases you cant even notice unless you analyze the shyt outta it up close.
at the end of the day a sneaker a sneaker...made of the same materials and fabric and glue. so what's the real difference? the fact that the authentic is made in the next sweatshop over from the one that makes replicas? is that worth payin 5x the price? i've seen documentaries on sneakerheads that went broke because they just had to get the 'real' version. and whats that even mean anyway? is a 'fake' shoe not a shoe? same design and all...plus, dudes out here spending hundreds on authentics and then not wearing em cause they gonna get dirty
idk man...if more people saw side by side video of how a 'real' shoe and a 'fake' shoe are made they'd realize how silly it is to spend so much more for the receipts. its the same chinese man making the replicas on the weekend in his spare time off-shift that made the authentics
this breh lays out it for yall.
i mean look at this...you tellin me you know which 1 is the 'real' one?
its like that with all these real vs fake videos too
i know brehs gonna step in here and clown me...roast on brehs...im a college student tryin to stack my money instead of spend it just to say 'yeah they real'. nikkas got student debt but they'll be first in line to cop them new j's...unboxin them on the same table where you fix ya struggle plate every night
look at it this way: i'd rather a replica of a limited edition shoe than none at all. i'll straight up admit its a fake call me corny but ya cant deny i look fly in these fakes tho
this the worst that can happen to you...
but even ye said "they not real buts its ok tho "
