I don't get it. What's the appeal here?

I saw a guy in my calc class last term wearing these and the first thing I thought was that they looked like tugboats.
>>
>>12578259
fucc i wish I could find the pic of the guy who put them beside that boat that looks exactly the same in the archive, made me kek

>>12578259
The only appeal to the shoe is that it's a status symbol. Even normies have at least heard of Yeezys and know they're expensive and hard to obtain.
>>
>>12578322
I didn't even realize they were Yeezys until I saw the picture just now. I thought they were some weird Chinese shit or something.
>>
>>12578259
the appeal is being a hypebeast, colors/silhouette etc. don't matter for the people who wear these. the oreo/zebra colorways are actually pretty cool though and the shoes do look nice, especially the latter.
>>
You might as well just buy decent replicas. Anybody who recognizes them is just going to assume they aren't genuine even if they are authentic
>>
>>12578322
I thought the appeal was that they were hard to get but NOT expensive

What do you mean "what's the appeal here"? This is a pretty famous marketing tactic, and not just for sneakers.
>>
>>12579221
Hypebeasts always pinroll their jeans very tight to keep the spaghetti from fallling out
>>
>>12579223
I mean that they're ugly, which should outweigh any other consideration.
>>
>>12580592
It really doesn't though. Quite a few shoes out there are ugly. Hell, 90% of sneakers look like they were designed for autistic toddlers. Thats not the appeal though.
>>
>>12580601
Wouldn't shoes that look good be more appealing?

Comfy and unique looking.
The Kanye appeal isn't such a big deal to me, since I liked yeezys before I even discovered Kanyes music. Used to really hate him.
One of my favorite artists now, but I think I'd be buying the sneakers even without his influence.

Nice to see that not everyone on this board is just pointlessly shitting on others' tastes.
>>
>>12579187
>Yeezys
>for betas

Doesn't compute.

Anyway, I'm personally not excessively into the 350s (or the whole socky shoe/boost NMD, etc. craze) but I would pay retail for Belugas or the black and orange ones if given the chance. They are pretty striking in person. You can see that orange stripe a mile away. I've tried 350s on and they are quite comfortable. They're not for everyone, but it's a neat shoe.

If you are a grown-ass man, why would people assume they're fake? Maybe in your world. Go away, teenager.
>>
>If you are a grown-ass man, why would people assume they're fake?
Most fakes I see are worn by 20-25 year olds who don't mind wearing fakes, because their friends don't care enough to "call them out". In most cases they're terrible fakes.
The teenagers who wear fakes often have at least a bit better fakes, so they can try to pass them as real to their friends.

I've rarely seen good fakes (the ones that are close to legit retail) so it's easy to spot them. They're usually pirate blacks, turtle doves, moonrocks or oxford tans anyways, which were so rare in my country (I hear we got aproximately 15 pairs on the first drops, moonrocks didn't even release here) so you pretty much know every 350 that goes by is fake.

V2 resale is so low that I assume most people have legit pairs by now. Saw DS zebras being sold last week for 350€ in a local sneaker group.

What kind of pants are these?
>>
>>12582807
I don't have a personality or anything I Excel at so instead of improving myself I'm just going to collect these shoes and mention that I like generic pop music.

Then I'm going to complain when people seem disinterested in me and my interests...I mean I have a whole bookshelf with tennis shoes on them. I hope people recognize me....

>>12583690
How boring is your life that you sit there and watch the feet of other people trying to determine if they're fake or.not?

Like that's your life bro?

OMG he doesn't have the geniune sand nigger/nigger couple of the decade licensed China made sneaker haaaaaa

So lame!

I b-bet he doesn't have a fulfilling life like I do like my bookshelf full of sneakers and constant glares from niggers and spics...I just thrive off of the attention of undesriables!

These shoes show that one time I had $500 a whole $500 from my part time job at minimum wage I'm so rich!

Like girls are going to be whoa are those the Kanye west shoes that are genuine sand nigger nigger hybrid approved??

I bet you're a quality individual and aren't dull at all because the busy pattern shows that you have a rich and fulfilling life filled with life experience!

Pretty far from generic pop music.

Where did I complain?
You are fucked in the head mate. I don't even own any tennis shoes.

>>12586564
Haven't worn anything else since I got them.

>>12589739
I had heard, but didn't listen to or pay any attention to it.
I got interested in 808's because of an article I read online about the production. Really fell in love with it and started getting into Kanye from there. I was also interested in TLOP because of the weird release and his "fixing" of the album.
So yeah, pretty much started listening to Kanye some time after TLOP hit spotify. Didn't like it at all at first though.

>>12592667
808's is his best work imo.
TLOP could've been a great album but he added way too much filler songs that don't go with the album. Some great songs, yet just a decent album.
>>
>>12578259
I live in a city with like 3 unis who get most of their money from chink students so I almost only see them wearing yeezys, usually with an mcm bag and a black mannequin hoodie. On the rare occasion I see a non asian wearing a pair it's always one of those slightly dweeby white kids who probably listens to 21 savage and has a fetish for asian girls but only manages to pick up slightly overweight filipinos who masquerade as 'thicc' on tinder. idk they're not the ugliest shoes I've seen in the world and I'm sure they're very comfy, I just can't help compare them to a modified civic or something; bought in order to impress women but only other guys end up impressed
