Why is everyone on this board hype for overpriced shoes designed

I'm 26
I only own "retro" Adidas sneakers, a few pairs of Adidas running shoes, and some boots

>>10866726

lmao bait thread.

every time someone makes a post about yeezys a lot of people trash them and this thread is no different.

OP is probably just looking for other people to agree with his opinon so he doesn't feel ostracized by his r/streetwear friends

>>10866726
I never like kanye...but I understand that social media presence is everything in this world in America.

Tough to get a decent job without a Instagram account with hundreds of millions of followers as a millenial. ..glad I'm on the end of a better generation

at least he's better than dick ovens

>>10866740
that or he has missed every drop and no stockist will let him sign up for lottery by phone

"only claim to fame were always his personal connections" ????????? is this bait? yea hes an ass but hes a god tier producer, thats how he got famous. Do your research.

>>10866752
Is that what they've been telling you kids? Kanye got famous because he was fucking that one famous bitch, and she basically bought him everything he has in return.

>>10866763
wtf he blew up in like 04 after college dropout out

>>10866792
Nice try, KIDF, but no one heard of that nigger until he started sleeping with that slut whose name sounds like a Star Trek alien.

>>10866802
obvious bait

>>10866763
Alright yea youre bait nevermind

>>10866726
Why are there pockets in those shoes? Is there a high demand for shoe pockets?

>>10866819
not him but you have to admit he's gotten more mainstream because Kim got tired of fucking every NFL and NBA athlete and went to him afterwards.

The only people that knew about him before Kim were kids that actually listened to niggerpop and no one respects those people anyways

>>10866819
Don't you know South Park spoofed Kanye's big ego before? Why was it so funny, when many celebrities are arrogant? It's because of the context. Kanye made hos entire career off of Kim K. Look at these ridiculous shoe designs his name is plastered on! The sad thing is that he probably paid someone else to do this for him.

>>10866726
18 desu

There are some older 20/30 something's here and there, but the majority of 15/16 y/o posting their nigger kenya shit and high school sneakers averages it out to 18.

>>10866919
wtf
the wedding is a sham; they were just trying to be a power couple, which they are
the kids aren't real it's just a false flag operation
fucking sheeple

>>10866726
Wow those look exactly like some shoes I just bought at zara, can't believe adidas ripped them off.

Why are you obsessing over kanye west's existence this much? Kinda sad

>>10867785
I completely agree that there's no need to obsess so much over Kanye West's existence... so why does his name jack up the price of these shoes to $600+?

Who was obsessing, again?

>>10867792
Yeezys cost 300$. Only people paying 600+ are desperate ppl that are hyping the shoe or are really stupid. Just don't wear them if you don't like them desu

only decent yeezy are the duck boots

>>10867805
What are you talking about? They're all $600+.

>>10867939
can u stop

>>10867805
>yeezys cost 300$

For what? Fucking suede, a piece of velcro, shitty ass laces and a crappy zipper that people keep breaking? lol An don't tell me that boost is that expensive

>>10866726

its called hype..everyone knows kanye is a annoying talentless cunt.

>>10866726
>What is the average age on this board?
~17

>>10868069
what are you even doing on here?

>>10868443
Trying to talk about fashion- something Kanye knows nothing about.

>>10866792
No, he was on chapelle's show and he was another one of the disposable rappers back then

I see 15 year olds post here all the time...

>>10866726
These are a tually nice when matched with green socks kirk on the photo. Unfortunately this board is getting wrecked by idiots who think techninja and gothninja, vaporwave and all those special snowflake units is actually look good on a person out in the streets. Most of the time I only come here to laugh or to check some info on fragrances

>>10869297
uuhhhhh...
ok lol

>>10866733
This. I'm 25. I don't think anyone here actually shells out for hella expensive shit as much as they want you to think.

/fa/ went to shit at the exact moment that KTT users decided to take up residence here. Since then it's been an endless parade of Kanye dickriding, sneaker threads, and poor advice.

>>10866726
i'm 24 and wouldn't wear this nigger trash if I was paid to

>>10869297
wtf Chapelle's Show had a pretty good list of musical guests
Mos Def
Talib Kweli
Killer Mike
Slum Village
Erykah Badu

Personally, I really don't care for any shoes that Kanye has released, but if you like 'em, whatever. I'm not the one wearing them.

>>10870926
When you see Chinese bapestas wearing these while they walk out of Niketown enough times, it gets annoying

>>10869980
I'm 25 and can see two pairs of Yeezy shoes on my shoe rack from here.

What's your point?

>>10870928
How vapid and empty is your own life if you get annoyed by what other people wear?

>>10870910
How can you forget Common and Wu-Tang

>>10866763
He was dating sumeke rainey when he blew up.

>>10866726
I like the 350's in black with dark grey speckles and black soles but considering they cost like £600 to get today I would have to buy fakes and would really rather not look like a guy who paid £600 for £50 shoes.

>>10866763
You blew the bait dammit

>>10868443
baiting

>>10871194
However does anyone know anywhere that does a similar shoe but without the logos etc? Might have found some on aliexpress but it could be they come with the logo and they're just concealing to avoid getting shut down

>>10866919
Yeah he has become more popular no doubt.
>The only people that knew about him before
Nah man not having it, he has been pretty huge for years

>>10866931
Huh? That first episode where he fucks fish was before he married Kim Kardashian. What you're saying is just not true, just because you heard of Kim first doesn't mean Kanye wasn't a success in his own right.

20 y.o. here.
Own 2 pairs of Stan Smiths, Vans Old Skools and Supergas. Don't have money for >200$ designer sneakers and don't like them to be honest. Probably some Fieg's Asics only.

I know it's a bait thread but reading this thread reminded me of old kanye moments..

- dave chappelle performance w/ common
- that 2004 grammy speech
- 2006 grammys where Kanye wins everything
- Love Lockdown debut performance
- MBDTF release

>>10866802
>30 Grammys
>known for being well dressed
Yeah bro sure, no ones heard of him.

How old are you man? I'm 28 and was hoping to dodge the social media bullshit, but it's a no go. I need to be like 35

why did kanye west make a futuristic-like shoe if the main body of his collection is this boring primitive concept..

>>10873574
What primitive concept?
