Bleu Davinci just launched his new designer $1,400 shoe WOULD YALL ROCK THESE? (POLL ADDED)

[NvrCMyNut]

The name has nothing to do with the 'c00n mindset' its simply because everyone recognizes and understands that Europe runs fashion. Black americans run music, Bieber has Drake on his album for the same reason DaVinci pretends his kicks are Italian, validation by association. For a hip-hop site obssesed with culture vultures yall should recognize game when you see it. DaVinci just doing what whites and asians been doing. Good luck to him.

It's got nothing to do with black or white. Ppl buy into fashion for brand's story, prestige, kudos aswell as the design and product quality. Blu cant compete with fashion houses in all these factors and then on top of that the design is super played out and more expensive. Other black brands do very well, Oswald boateng, Mr Hare, A Sauvage etc, because they have brand story, history, and design.

At the end of the day, people buy from brands that have established themselves it that field. Even Louis Vuitton struggle to sell their clothes, why, because they are a baggage brand. People go to LV to buy bags. So why is a knowledgable consumer going to pay over the odds for a shoe made by a rapper?

i never heard of none of these nikkas til today



that today is the problem

 

[thernbroom]

who remembers these

 

[blizzard man]

nah, no thanks

 

[Unknown Poster]

Jim Jones co signed them

Oooggllllllaaaaaaayyyyyyy!




But i appreciate him trying to make a black version of Giuseppe's.

 

[NoChillJones]

1300 breh? If the man was smart he would make a regular shoe and go the payless route. Way more money........but nikkas gotta try to be fancy. And you can get there, but out the gate like you that nikka.........FOH breh.

When someone tries to market something to you, and a key point is how much they cost... As in expensive. Nah!

Galiano Davincis. If that ain't a try hard...

The reason Giuseppe Zannottis cost that much is because they're handmade in italy with a custom sole and premium leather alongside the gold accents. Each pair is numbered.

These don't look like they have the same consideration towards construction and design and look like they were made in either China, Singapore, or Vietnam in a sweatshop and cost no more than 25 to make.

Tariq Flexboots>>>>These.

They look like shoes you'd find at the Chinese market

Or Gabriels
Or Ross
Or TJ Maxx
Or Marshalls.

They're ugly like most "designer" high fashion shoes. His mistake was associating them with him, had he put them out under a different French sounding name, I could see him having some success just because of the price point. I don't understand how brothas still haven't figured out that the typical black consumer doesn't buy sh1t that black people create unless it has Nike or Adidas name attached to it.

I noticed someone above say they look cheap as hell, when they don't look any cheaper than the other sh1t out here. He seen a black man standing next to it and cheap was the first thing that came to mind. EVERYTHING black people do is seen as cheap until it's repackaged with someone of another race and then it's acceptable all of a sudden. Sadly you see this behavior with black men more than you do with black women because every instagram model has an online boutique these days and other instagram models with thousands of followers will shout it out and wear the designs on their page after they BOUGHT it.

It's telling... Euro mind X black skin smh

Nah.

These look cheaply made.

I run a black business and my products are bought by black people. You mke points but in this situation they don't apply. They are beyond overpriced and until I see it that these are made with the same quality construction as Giuseppe or Filling Pieces (handmade in Portugal hence the price) or Hender Scheme or Visvim (handmade in Japan using premium materials) I'll have to pass on them. They aren't worth 1300 Euros. The markup is ridiculous.

If they were $500....then I would be like okay then.

The style is pretty very played out and they look tacky. With these thing you generally have to be a step above the competition to do well, and from I see he isn't. Buscemi did well coz he had a lot of experience and channels already laid out. Is this shoe better than:

Zanotti
Margiela
Lanvin
Givenchy
Versace etc

Basically no,

Margiela's

Givenchi's

Lanvins

These shyts are trash. But since a white man made them, nikkaz fukk with them

In reality all these high end sneakers are fukking trash. That includes buscemi and giuseppi. Just cause they expensive dont mean they hot. They all use the same sole, have the same build...and are stiff as fukk.

You're not wearing these more than once.

And it sucks nikkas forgetting their have been successful black owned sneaker companies like Axion (skate shoes) and Starbury. And1 is still around.

Make stuff people want to wear and everyone will folck to this. Some of you have such a low opinion of other black people its fukking sad.
