So what? There’s a million and one alternatives to all clothing. Why don’t we all just rock Walmart s***?

You have a valid intuition but the a***ogy of explicitly saving money on say a flight or a coupon at a restaurant is not congruent with buying a completely different version of a thing. That’s more like having a heroin habit and choosing to buy fentanyl instead.

What's a fake product?

All this stupid s*** being spewed

Someone liking something, buying a look alike that costs a fraction and provides the same purpose is not akin to a d*** addict settling for anything.

They simply found a deal (to them) and acted upon it lmao.

So would I, I don’t care about about flaunting brands

Chicago 1’s are basically timeless and one of the most classic sneakers of all time

Any alternative to them is irrelevant because they aren’t Chicago 1’s… it’s completely different shoes

It’s not like buying a plain black tee for $10 or buying a plain black Gucci tee for $500 and the only difference is the label inside the shirt or a tiny little Gucci logo on the breast

Something that triggers a loser entrapped into the concept that paying 30x more for an item slightly different and unnoticeable to the average person makes them elite

Because I don’t give a flying f*** about lining the pockets of some 17 year old reseller???

How the f*** does paying $500 for a $160 sneaker honor that any more than buying a rep pair lmfao???

so you're admitting you want them not because its good design but because they are a classic status symbol? because if you simply appreciated the design, one of the extremely similar alternatives would be fine

Well it’s a natural part of life isn’t it? Most of us here were probably conceived during a sexual act. Just because they’re your parents doesn’t mean they don’t have their own desires or histories. Do you resent them for acting upon their desires?

This argument doesn’t work the way you want it to lmao.

Nike is Nike. Someone is not going to be able to easily find another legit sneaker that carries the same look. Regardless of anything, Nike shoes are objectively nice and unique.

If Nike were to drop the prices of all sneakers down to $20 and make unlimited stock, then I would literally load up on Nike the next day. Because I simply like the look of the fashion.

If someone only cares about the imaginary status and being seen rocking something, then Nike dropping their prices down to $20 and making everything unlimited stock would make them disgusted with wearing Nike and want to find a more “exclusive” alternative to start getting reps for.

Actively partaking in classism and saying “are we allowed to just think this??”

You cannot explain your issue on reps without it coming down to traditional classism being your mindset lmao
