Best quality to price ratio or most expensive meme? When it comes to high tops you're basically paying ~3x the price for jordans or adidas/yeezy and supposedly getting much better quality shoes. I'm gonna dump my favorites, feel free to say whether or not they are disgusting or dope.
Always liked the jasper. Never gonna own and I would change parts about it if I could but I still like
Very much considering buying these but cant decide if I want the black and red or the black and whites
Also feel like these are the best meme there is. Fuck rick. Fuck common projects. Velcro is best meme
Also I feel like these are bad but they remind me of the jasper so I like them but I also know that the jasper is kinda bad too. Quite the mind fuck
Also I'd just like to say that cp's would be great if they were the only minimalistic high quality leather sneaker on the market but thats actually a highly populated niche and I feel like everyone's just buying them cause they're brand recognition if growing so rapidly
you have the taste of a nigger hypebeast kanye dickrider, stop posting
I don't even know what to think about the whole versace medusa line but that face decoration is on point, I just dont know if it belongs on a shoe.
>>11104386
post your fit rn
>>11104374
Same shoes
>>11104360
red is trying too hard
These are my nice trainers/loafers. They are worth the money as the soles last really long especially the pradas.
>>11104524
kek
spoiler alert: soles always last a long time if you're not a heel dragging cretin
not trying to be judgemental here but velcro strap shoes that are not Raf Velcros? :^)
>>11104392
they look like sketchers lol i have a lot of money but i would never buy them
>>11104382
terrible i have lots of money but i would never spend a penny on em
>>11104369
not bad i have a lot of money but i wouldn't probably buy these
>>11104534
good to know you have a lot of money
>>11104534
Do you by any chance...have a lot of money?
>>11104360
I like the all white and zip or the black and silver the most. However, black and white is the best out of the options.
>>11104532
ive never heard of raf simmons lol sorry.
>>11104382
I like the all white with a zip or black and silver more.
>>11104392
Fresh
>>11104559
yeah all white is the best colorway
these are the best, better than any SLP sneakers ever
>>11104524
terrible shoes, throw them out and start again
>>11104571
what size do you wear in these, i have a 45 and the laces are so short. is it just because i have them display/bar laced?
>>11104739
i wear 43 in these, it could be
>>11104571
so ugly, they are fashion victim highlighters
>>11104705
Guess i wasted 3 and a half grand.
>>11104798
Yes, you did.
>>11104757
what's so ugly about them? they are simple and they look amazing. doubt you even know what a fashion victim is
Greats, Koio, and Axel Arigato. These are my current favourite.
>>11104369
too bad youd have to buy second hand to get ones without silver
>>11104570
i agree but holy shit they look horrible worn like that
>>11104570
>>11105056
I'm starting to dislike these after seeing how skinny they get around the ankle compared to the rest of the shoe. I'm not sure if they dont have enough padding, or they're too tall, or if they should just be left loose but i dunno man. Still really like the red and black cause im a sucker for jordans but im definitely gonna put more thought into it before actually copping them now
>>11104534
what do you spend your lot of money on friendo?
>>11105138
on cars and bitches, lots of chains and even more expensive shoes than these poverty "luxury" sneakers you have here
>>11105136
Don't buy the red and black ones. They are tacky as fuck.
>>11104524
You should feel bad for owning these shoes
What's a reasonable price to pay for Common Projects? (Original Achilles Low to be exact)
This is my quick, no bullshit guide to luxury sneakers:
Abomination tier (suitable for niggers and new money chinese ONLY):
Givenchy
Giuseppe Zanotti
Buscemi
MCM
Versace
Fendi
Non-Prorsum Burberry
Commercial tier (quality varies, you have to be selective. Stay away from monogram shit, it tends to be the cheapest made):
Louis Vuitton
Gucci
Prada
Bally
Jimmy Choo
Salvatore Ferragamo
Balenciaga
Meme tier (you’ll score points on the internet AND NOWHERE ELSE):
Raf Simmons
Rick Owens
Kris Van Assche
Y-3
Discreet tier (high quality luxury that isn’t too flashy or ugly):
Bottega Veneta
Lanvin
Ermenegildo Zegna
Dior Homme
Overpriced tier (high quality but stupidly expensive):
Hermes
Zilli
Tom Ford
Stefano Ricci
Louboutin
MMM
Saint Laurent Paris
All-out tier (best stuff in the world, with a price to match)
Kiton
Berluti
Socialist tier:
Brunello Cucinelli
>>11106748
>>Abomination Tier
I feel the same way but you missed out Balenciaga, Valentino, Dolce & Gabana
Goyard should fall in Overpriced tier
Moncler goes in Commercial/Meme
Here's my local mall that has my favorite stores ever but are literally so limited in supply
http://www.balharbourshops.com/shops/store-directory
>>11106662
New anything in the $200-$280 range is a good deal. They can regularly be had at the top of that range and go on sale once or twice a year at certain retailers for closer to $200.
>>11106765
Balenciaga is in commercial luxury tier, I don't find it quite as heinous as those others
>GOYard
yeah no
Moncler makes shoes? u wut?
Dolce & Gabana aren't sold much anymore
No experience with Valentino but it looks a shit
>>11106778
Oh you're talking about sneakers, I thought you meant luxury brands in general
Well, then Balenciaga is fully abomination tier, literal shit-core
Moncler does make shoes which are decently priced for their quality
Dolce & Gabanna is shit, you also forgot Tory Burch which is shit/meme and then Michaeleme Kors which is basic bitch wear
"Valentino yellow diamond ropes got yo hoe on go!"
>>11106748
Not a bad list, but objectively wrong on several accounts.
Balenciaga goes to abomination tier
Jimmy Choo goes to abomination tier
Salvatore Ferragamo goes to abomination tier
Louboutin DEFINITELY goes to abomination tier
LV goes to abomination tier
Gucci goes to abomination tier
Hermes goes to abomination tier
Everything in discreet tier goes into abomination tier except Dior Homme
Berluti and Kiton go to abomination tier
Meme tier parenthetical should be changed because normies fucking love velcros/multilaces/rick sneakers too
>>11106765
>>11106778
Valentino makes some good sneakers occasionally, most recently the block stripe sneaker is great for a minimalist look with a pop pic related
>>11106748
>>11106837
also Fendi sneakers can look great on girls
>>11106837
>hurr half the list belongs in abomination tier
fuck off faggot you have no idea what you're talking about
>>11106799
Balenciaga is not into the full bullshit like Guissepiss (plated metal, big fuckoff chains, over 9000 zippers, etc)
I don't think Tory Burch makes men's shoes
>>11106854
>says I have no idea what I'm talking about
>endorses sneakers like pic related
show me a gucci sneaker that looks good
show me a hermes sneaker that looks good
show me a louboutin sneaker that looks good
show me a jimmy choo sneaker that looks good
show me a balenciaga sneaker that looks good
show me a LV sneaker that looks good
show me a salvatore ferragamo sneaker that looks good
show me a berluti sneaker that looks good
show me a kiton sneaker that looks good (there is one kiton sneaker I like, but one/100 doesn't = good brand)
It's like you don't even realize that luxury brands sell sneakers for people to show off their wealth rather than look good
>>11106884
>post 15 images to argue with me on a matter of personal taste
>posting what was clearly a one-off custom ordered shoe
literally eat shit dude
>>11104404
>>11104409
These are growing on me, but they only look good from the front.

Where do you live and how rich are you?
Formerly Surfside here.

Ft. Lauderdalé,
Go there sometimes but I prever Apt 606 or Alchemist
>>11104480
I like Rick, but these are literally sonic shoes
>>11107406
I think y-3's would be more suitable.
>>11107416
fbts have such an amazing silhouette
>>11106911
I didn't mean to say you should give an example of each one, I was just giving you a list to choose from.
I don't like midtops and those shoes look gaudy as hell for trying to look minimal but slapping this nasty metallic blue paint on with a huge chunky sole w/ no detailing
>>11106911
>>11107448
a margom sole would make them passable and a different c/w would make them good.
>>11107446
Agred. Picking these up in a few weeks.
>>11106748
>not mentioning the goat
>>11107469
I have FBT shamans in black
words can't describe how amazing they are. I am totally bought into that aesthetic though so I definitely have some bias
Could someone recommend me some shoes only from Nordstrom, Barneys, or Saks5th?
I can get 30% off this sites and they don't make me pay taxes.
>>11104353
Those are literally some of the ugliest shoes I've ever fucking seen
ITT PEOPLE WHO DONT KNWO WHAT THE FUCK THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT AND NEVER WILL
are DBSS lux?
i wanna get a pair of adidas raf smiths. worth it? anyone who owns give me a breakdown of why i should/shouldnt cop, and which is the best colourway? im deciding between that grey blue colour, red and black. not getting white because im already stocked to the gills with white shoes
>>11108281
lux usually refers to brands like gucci, burberry, tom ford
dbss makes decent-to-good quality stuff, and it's not cheap, so in that sense it's lux. but lux isn't an adjective that comes to mind when i think of the dbss brand
>>11108281
>are DBSS lux?
Sort of? IMO they're pretty ugly.
> adidas raf smiths. worth it?
Don't pay over $250. IMO grey is the nicest, black is to low key. Materials are /better/ but still not really worth over 300, and they hit sales all the time.
>>11108234
u must be the dude trying to defend the nigger/chink brands
>>11106837
You're wrong, you only look at the commercial part of Gucci,... Etc but I'm sure you havent seen their newest walk way shows. They dont only make clothing with huge logos on them
i own
>>11104353
>>11104360
>>11104369
>>11104374 in all red/cracked black colorway
>>11104392 1's tho
>>11106662
>>11107416
among others, if you have any questions
>>11109500
why do you own so many expensive shoes, do you wear them all
>>11109489
100% -- Gucci menswear is some of the best shit happening right now. But hey man, let these kids remain uncool, more chance for us to buy something on sale!
>>11109526
probably cuz he can afford to
>>11107416
>>11107446
>>11107469
I'm much more of a skagway guy myself. I ended up selling my FBTs after I gradually stopped wearing them. Visvim is still best at outerwear though.
>>11105155
tru
here are mine
i love luxury / expensive sneakers a lot i have many
>>11109489
nah, I'm not talking about the commercial part of Gucci, and I've been watching their runways ever since Michele took over because hes fucking killing it
they rarely send sneakers down their runway, and not everything on a runway hits the shelves
just because they make 1 or 2 good sneakers every few years doesnt mean theyre a good brand for luxury sneakers. I like Gucci for their exquisite prints and patterns (not including monogram) and tight tailoring and vintage vibe
>>11110759
>>11109602
missed your comment. I'm not disagreeing, Michele has been consistently putting out some fire and hes really made Gucci cool again, but sneakers have nothing to do with it and considering we're in a LUXURY SNEAKERS thread gucci really has no place here unless you a fob or a nigger
>>11109618
sick converse
>>11109500
How do SLP's fit compared to Margielas (Same sole as low GATS) and Velcros?
>>11105056
Literally look like some shit you can get at Payless shoes
feit and pierre hardy are pretty cool i think
