The end result looks FARRRRRRRRR better than all of the /fa/gs that tried to do MMM dips a year or so ago...
At least, unlike you /fa/gs that never go outside or try anything outside of the TRICKY RICKY TICKI TAVI OWENS hivemind, that Ledditor was willing to do a DIY
Shit makes me sad actually. Over a year ago /r/mfa circle jerked mmm converse and now they don't even know they existed. Fashion = dead

U retard I was referring to the comments and reaction to the DIY. This is a great DIY.

You didn't really specify that at all, but in that case I agree.

What is with 4chan's obsession with Reddit? They don't give a shit about us, why do you guys obsess over them? Fucking grow up.
>>11192272
>They don't give a shit about us
they do, but only /r9k/ /pol/ /int/ /fit/ and /b/ or whenever theres a shitpost on another board. https://www.reddit.com/r/4chan/
>What is with 4chan's obsession with Reddit?
Because they generally follow a 'hivemind'. This in turn creates communities of people who think that dress shoes go with fucking everything. At least here theres no people to correct you with right or wrongs through upboats. Here everyones their own special kind of retarded, but Reddit is just the same retard.
>>11192272
Ok I was wrong /fa/s just unfunny a lot of the time https://www.reddit.com/r/4chan/search?q=%2Ffa%2F&restrict_sr=on&sort=relevance&t=all
the shoes look alright, too bad he cant style them for shit
I think "Hey dipshit your shoes are peeling all over my carpet what the fuck is wrong with you" is a valid, not closed-minded complaint
>>11191529

People enjoy laughing at others failures, and this feeling is heightened when laughing at those others makes you feel like a part of a superior group.
It's not an obsession, it's just an amusement. A very normal human amusement that many groups partake in. People are bound to repeat things that give them pleasure; and no, I don't see myself as part of a superior group.
>fucking grow up
Although I am laughing at you for thinking that doesn't make you sound like a frustrated teenage girl.

>Daily "lewk whut leddit did!" threads
>not an obsession.
K.
A lot of what the brand Margiela plays with is the idea of deconstructivism, construction, and history. For example, deconstructing a jacket to the most abstract, simple symbol possible. Or playing with the material and fade of denim to create something new from the old. It's not always practical.
There's something really cool about seeing these shoes age by the flakes slowly peel off showing the layer underneath; similar to why people like to see crisp fade marks on their jeans. Plus honestly these shoes honestly take forever to peel; it's not like the flakes are going to get everywhere like people make it out to be.

You are deluding yourself if you don't think 4chan is just as hivemind.

I don't go on reddit but i assume the threads posted there are exactly the same as the ones posted here, i see people post threads like "holy shit can you believe this reddit thread" meanwhile the exact same thread was posted here a week ago.
Basically what I'm getting at is fuck off and stop posting reddit discussion threads.
Diy mmm x cons were here all the time a year or two ago.

I saw that comment. He's right, but c'mon you don't use fucking gesso to paint your sneakers. If you don't know what they are using to paint them to they get the nice flaking, don't even try (or try and experiment, that's good, but don't show it like it gives you a good result). Look at >>11191973
