omnidataThere's an Asian bald guy at my hospital who either wears those or the new runners. They look even worse in real life, as if you have bloody hooves.
I thought the runners were cool when they first came out because I only saw them sideo on, but as soon as I saw them in person I changed my mind. Those elaborate squared off soles look dreadful. Way too superfuture for me
Hurr, slap on some random brand name items from the bargain bin at Azzuro's Four or Sneakerboy's sale, and I look fresh killa!
He is not wearing an outfit, he is wearing the costume of a delusional consumer who's pride and self-worth is solely fuelled by the appreciation of his peers for the materialistic goods he is wearing. It's a mess.

It's sad.
Can't people enjoy fashion as a hobby...? Sure there are those who are slaves to consumerism, but that happens in every hobby.

Not when he puts together such an outfit, he doesn't enjoy fashion, he doesn't understands it, he merely uses the outskirts as a vehicle for peer approval as said in my last post, that's not fashionable, owning fashion items =/= knowing about them, I bet you he is jacking off to the likes on his instagram, people want to be somebody, they dream up this illusory image of themselves they have conjured up in their head, reality alone counts, and that dreams, expectations and hopes only serve to define a man as a broken dream, aborted hopes, and futile expectations.

Unfortunately I think its quite rare that anyone is purchasing and wearing fashion items without the intention of making some sort of statement to others. Yes, one might appreciate the art of fashion but for the average person (as evidenced by many members of this site) a hypefashion-type like that guy in the Raf sneakers and someone with a non-mainstream, "educated" sense of style & fashion are often grouped in the same category as knowing style/fashion. Further, the innovators are criticized & laughed at and then, as acceptance grows, followers are praised as interesting.
I agree that its ridiculous when people think that buying hype and trends makes them some sort of fashionable person but what your "goals" are for purchasing and wearing such items is entirely open to interpretation and something highly personal. Does one need to "know" about a fashion item just to like it/wear it?
Like any Art, fashion is full of people who think that associating themselves with it will make them interesting to others who are likeminded or less educated about the art itself

nah man lawrence has a point. there's kids like that popping up all the time on instagram/ tumblr who just spend stupid amounts of money on all the hyped items but can't put an outfit together to save their lives. i agree with you too but there are seriously some people out there who just don't get it.

Perfect example is this stock, spoiled, pudgy, little turd who popped up on my explore page.
hahaha exactly man, everything down to "yung crosby" is just recycled from 100 photos/ profiles they've seen elsewhere. there's no personal input to that outfit, and that's missing the whole point. like that outfit is worth well over $1000 and i could easily find a ton of photos of people wearing the exact same thing

i mean i'm all for people doing what makes them happy and wearing what they want, but really there's a point where it becomes stupid
