WTF Happened to FAKE Fashion? 

Great advice

Fr

ok brokie

@@nevimbrasko bro who are you💀

but impressing others is what people think will make them happy, nobody dresses for himself, if stranded on a desert island we'd all be in shorts and a tee shirt all the time.

genuinely thrifting is one of the best ways to build up a unique wardrobe and you save money

@@k00_ma cant even thrift anymore with stores selling shit way over priced $50 used hoodie is crazy, resellers will always fuck up any market if theres hype for it

@@monke2395 that’s true, my Goodwill is taxing on junk most of the time

@@k00_ma too many people thrifting now

@@monke2395 bruh it’s simply demand aka people like you who fuck up the market. Stop with that “evil reseller destroy everything” narrative. They are just people who use that demand to make money

You’re not wrong lol

Letting go of ego where other’s opinions affect how you view yourself is key❤keep doing you! I like that idea btw, added to my notes

I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. "All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.” GOD loves you JESUS loves you in JESUS name amen❤️✝️

That’s dedication staying away from resellers for this long🤯I’ve definitely noticed the quality having no consistency based on the actual retail price/hype of the shoe. On the bright side it’s given other brands time to shine who are consistent with quality

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon forreal ! You make a great point about other brands getting some shine . I don’t think I deserve a pat on the back for staying away from resellers, it seems more legit now and I did buy a pair of Oreo 5s from goat last year, but that has been it so far… but it just wasn’t a seemingly trustworthy endeavor to me in my younger years, but like I said I also grew up in Oakland and getting your Jordan’s called fake in the 2000s- beyond was too constant lol . Remember we started ,,, what are thoooose . We harsh

@@baby.nay. 😂😂felt like a detective in middle school while looking for fakes in the halls

Would’ve probably done the same if I wasn’t scared of getting my debit card hacked lmao

Appreciate your honesty. If only the rest of these counterfeit apologists would admit the same thing then fakes wouldn’t be as controversial

You were just a clown by lying on obvious fakes.😂

Nike air mags with chrome jeans and a raf bomber could be a fit🤫

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon still, they would look goofy doing so cuz everyone finna know they broke💀

@@PRODSUPREME air mags are a no go, but im buying it cause i like the design or product. im noy paying all that money for something i can get for cheaper when its the same quality at that point its about the status for one chrome hearts shirt i can buy a rep fit thats quality and looks good

Good point, I see where you’re coming from

Reps are ultimately for inauthentic and disingenuous people

I like that idea a lot. Definitely wouldn’t be mad at seeing more people take logos/brands/designs and making them their own

Dapper Dan made bootleg pieces from materials not 1 to 1 fakes of already existing items from the actual brand.

Yeah I doubt that a problem unless your in middle school or at sneaker con lol

I’ll check out that paper! I agree, instant gratification is definitely a large part of the rise in replicas

Yoooo I grew up in the bay , those were lit 😅I remember those

The Spongebob Dub Zeros are a grail

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon 😂 with a 3x-Tall tee

Nice! I’ve seen some crazy steals on eBay lately on some used sneakers. What have you had your eyes on lately?

That’s definitely played a big role in it👌

The balance between being materialistic vs enjoying fashion would be a really good video

That’s a good point, when prices are more easily attainable it becomes tempting to buy more and more and more

Definitely, resellers are so easy to blame for ruining sneaker/fashion cultures. There’s so many good items that sit on shelves and online that I don’t buy that opinion as much

That really means a lot bro! Motivation to keep going harder💪

Manifesting you get a pair one day for a good price🙏

I feel like that’s something MSCHF could turn into a big product by playing upon all the most faked sneakers

Graduating from the replica haul addiction program is my biggest accomplishment, shoutout replicas anonymous🙏

I’d trade my car for some 1985 Chicago 1s

You bought them because Gazelles and Sambas are the new wave adidas wise... also the gucci collab is the most popular from these styles atm. You not slick my g.

I can't afford thosr guccis and i think they look fire but does that mean im gonna run and cop a fake? Hell no plenty of other fish in the sea.

@@paulishpaul not quite. I'm an adidas head. Have about 7 other pairs of sambas over the years. Just got myself the new blondeys too. Stop assuming and grow up.

Damn it’s crazy how this dude thinks he cool for calling you out

@@ChrisTamayo either way my point still stands I think they heat, way out of my budget. Ima pick something else instead of going with a fake.

TikTok and the pandemic played a huge role in sneaker hype, but many shoes are now going for under 300

Definitely! So many good sneakers go under the radar with even better prices once they’re used

I see what you mean, but there’s definitely relevant reasons to steer away from fakes, which I share towards the end

Yeah I just read a comment that shared a similar idea. Resale has made non luxury products sell at luxury prices

I call it Beta Behavior

Sigma males wear reps too😥

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon lmfaoooo that makes them a cornball it don't matter. Fakes are fakes it don't matter who rocking them. If you not a 10 year old child whose moms copped them a fugazi by accident or cuz she was broke but a grown man who can't think of a way to hustle to afford the real thing or just buy a used pair to save money then you a simp for sneakers and just wanna feel like you part of something haha

I don’t see no issue w it. It’s like people who wear fake jewelry, most do it, because if it was real they’d have to walk around w security or be ready to fight/kill 🤷🏽‍♂️

@@montgomeryscottys8213 yes and the ones who wear fake jewelry fake watches is clowns. The whole point of this shit is so that there is a risk of it getting stolen. Thats how it was in the old days half the flex of these items is them being coveted and people potentially wanting to steal them. If you got expensive jewelry or a watch on yes you better insure it or have security or be ready to fight for that shit once tested. Yall dont get why some shit is the way it is.

Really, why’s that?

Yeah I get that, I’d personally just rather buy a different all black shoe

Might’ve been the wrong financial decision, but you made the right decision 👌

I understand that, but for me buying real emphasizes the value of the products. Since I can’t easily buy that same pair of shoes again, it feels more rewarding getting the product

I do buy retail, if it is resonable price, an example recently would be the LPL dunks that I baught from GOAT they were 170bucks aka slightly over retail, for a china only release. I am a huge fan of dunk lows, I am also an avid watcher of the LPL (chinese league of legends) as i mentioned above when talking about Li-Ning. So it was a natural thing for me to want, and 170dollars is something I could more than afford, but for other sneakers I am not paying 600usd for a pair of aj1s that realisticly are worth 150-80 tops. Its scalping and I cant stand scalpers, I dont even call them resellers beacuse they arent reselling something they wanted, they are scalping the fans of a product beacuse of the nature of a limited release and fomo.

I’m glad you shared your comment because I hadn’t thought much about how location came really play a big aspect into replicas and the idea of flexing. That’s too bad Norway doesn’t have access to SNKRS.

Appreciate that! I try to share both sides of what’s going on

Thanks for the comment Reggy, I think you’re right on in your thoughts!

Definitely! I’m glad to help anyone out with their channels, I love talking about RU-vid

Appreciate that man, keep up the good sneaker content💪

Big drip

I feel like that depends. If you really like a certain sneaker based on the history/meaning of the shoe I think it’s worth it

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon most of them uninspired money grab collabs . Can’t blame them they already done everything tbh

Thank you! What you shared makes sense to me. I think this view on replicas is becoming more and more popular

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon ofc man! lots of people have the wrong idea abt rep buyers, lots of people buy for lots of reasons. For me it’s about being smart with my money, while still being able to have those things I like without making an irresponsible purchase. Love the vids n content man

@@Mojiiizz appreciate that! There’s a lot of misconceptions on both replica buyers and resellers in my view. Might make a video on that specifically soon

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon I think that would be a really dope video i really haven't seen anyone touch on.

@@Mojiiizz definitely, thanks for talking bro!

I’m not heavily involved in the reps scene, but is it really popular to flex replicas as authentic? Feel like people either wouldn’t know at all or they’d clearly stand out as fake

Travel anywhere cool lately?

Only real ragers own legit Travis’s

Makes sense to me🫡

Yeah I get that, I feel like sneakerheads are bothered by that because there are so many great authentic shoes that still sell for retail prices

Those a ma Maniére 5s are looking VERY nice

I think it’s crazy how much shoes can resell for, but that’s just a part of sneakers IMO. Having grails, hyped shoes, and super rare sneakers keep sneakers interesting. It’s not the materials, but the demand that should dictate prices, which are why they’re so high.

Top tier subscriber❤️❤️❤️

Needles, Grailed has the best selection

Not sure if you made it to the end, but I share arguments I believe are reasons to not support fakes. With that said I can definitely see the appeal

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon I did make it to the end, and you seem to have the same dilemma as most people.

Reselling has definitely become more popular, but resale prices have definitely dropped a bunch from the covid hype. Reselling becoming popular is honestly mostly a good thing in my eyes since it’s shined a new light on brands outside of Nike/Adidas

Seems like more and more people are feeling this way

Really great comment, thanks for sharing! I can definitely see where you’re coming from. Only correction I’d say is the Hypebeast era being the BEST lol

I can understand that, how do you know if the replica will be good qualities? I assume getting qc pics and checking reviews

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Correct. And checking QC photos of previous orders. Sometimes it’s a gamble but I’m mostly happy with what I get. I also get reps for things I like but not that much or things I will beat on or use for working out. If it’s going to be worn out I don’t want to pay much for it.

@@newyorkvisionary that makes sense, thanks for letting me know

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Of course, love the channel! Thanks for the reply 🙌

That makes sense. Honestly, I don’t blame anyone for buying fake EE shorts or Stussy tees. The quality isn’t amazing on the authentics. I never thought about countries not having outlets. I’m taking a trip to Germany this summer for the first time!

Same here! Have you ever considered buying fakes?

@@WhatsTheHype.Landon Nah, people around me wear reps. When they tell me the price I understand it is tempting, but I prefer wearing the real deal, something I had to save up for.

Scam the scammers

I definitely did till I saw how good reps started to become then I started to understand the appeal more. I just feel better wearing authentic products so I stay away from fakes

I think this perspective is becoming more and more popular, which I understand. In defense to it, people who have liked sneakers for years don’t view sneakers just as shoes for style

Yeah I agree it takes away from legit sneakerheads. Now seeing a hyped sneaker and instantly assuming they’re fake has taken away the appeal to wearing grail sneakers a bit

Anyone try to call you out?

That makes sense to me, wear what you like👌
