if it didn't have the word tims on them, but just a blank boot....i'd rock those in a hearbeat, pending they under $30.00Bruh, ain't nobody trusting "Tims"
They just want the look.
High End Replicas vs Fakes...Is there really a difference?

No that's not what I said and you know that
Look no further than Balenciaga dad shoes. They are ugly and they are marked up because they know people will buy them
Now if Fila made those same shoes, they sitting on the shelf
Oh, i'm not a label hoe, so idgaf about that type of shit.
I was more so talkin about wearing real Fila , oppose to wearing fake Fila.
You're talkin about wearing a shoe that's identical to a "designer" type shoe. I would rock the cheaper shoe if the quality was the same, but in most cases the quality on the designer product is much better.
No that's where the disconnect is
I'm talking about two shoes that are identical, one labeled Gucci the other labeled Fila
That's what im saying.
Me personally, idgaf, I'd rock the Fila's , IF the quality was just as good. But in many cases the designer shoe is much better in quality.
Story time
Right around the time fila made the fake Prada sneakers, I had a homeboy that worked at Nordstrom in Dallas. He called me and told me they were having a clearance sale on Prada sneakers. I'm not gonna say what I paid for a pair of low and high tops but I got them on like 75% clearance.
Soon as I bought them, Fila dropped their version.
Now, this not probably a good example as the fila brand were inferior in EVERY single read possible. It wasn't even close. Had I not gotten the hook up on the Prada sneakers,I still wouldn't have bought the fila joints mainly because they looked extremely poorly made and were a blatant rip off of the Prada silhouette. I still have those shoes to this day and occasionally wear them
The only thing that has worn down was the insole in my low tops. But I would never pay retail for those shoes

The one between three and three.
I've never spent that much on running, court, or hooping shoes.
Gators, on the other hand, don't come cheap.

Dont drank out my drank, foo
i got that shit bad man, i wont lie
im not into high end shit but I wont wear "off brand" either...fuck that
since ya'll posted the "tims", I just got some regular wheat work boots for around the house that look almost identical to the real timbs but will NOT wear them shits in that manner, cuz it aint no tree on em lol
im no shoe head but i've spent 150 here, 125 there on max's and shit
Fila's are still acceptable, I'd wear either if they were really the same
now if they were exactly the same but the "off" ones said "aBW Sneaks" or some shit across the tongue, nah man...im sorry lol
until I move to a country or in the wilderness somewhere where the shit truly doesnt matter, im semi stuck
but here, today, people are literally passed over for jobs and anything else you can think of for wack clothes...its not inviting, it doesnt look successful or like you're taking care of yourself, people arent even interested in being seen associating with you lmao...im guilty of it myself

I don't believe the average consumer can detect quality.
They just pay more for the bigger brand and just trust that those extra bucks are going towards higher quality

We all watched the wire, so we know
Lurk you and me are so different it's crazy.
You prolly brush your hair for like 22 minutes every day. Take over an hour to get ready to go anywhere. Walk in to multiple stores while shopping. Hold different shit up to the mirror and pose talking about "which one look better"
You a shopping ass fashionable ass nigga. I give no fucks about any of that shit. So naw we not the same in those regards. I understand everybody ain't like me. What you gotta understand is that every nigga don't care about logos brands and designer shit just cuz you do.
You prolly would say I dress ugly, and that shit means nothing to me, fashion niggaz always said I dressed ugly. That shit goes back to elementary school. I just never wanted to be that guy. Every one else does though.
It is what it is, and I respect the jokes. But don't think I be having my heart set on some shoes just cuz that's the shit y'all do.....
