Hey /fa What's the consensus on replica clothing/shoes? Pic unrelated
>>10703359
find your own.
btw reps are stupid
>>10703359
nothing really wrong with buying reps, op. just make sure they're quality reps that don't fucking look obviously fake.
They're fine when you are using them to put together a style. When you're trying to flaunt wealth it won't work because 1. you're most likely still poor and people assume it's fake because they know you can't afford that shit or 2. you look like a huge douchebag. This really only applies when you're buying reps of gaudy stuff like LV, Gucci, bags, belts or shiny golden shoes. They're fine if you're rich because the hater can't say shit about you being poor when you can clearly afford the legitimate but choose not to because you don't care. Most niggers buy fake jordans which is why they're so common even in ghetto areas. These days the reps are 99% there and the only people who insist there's a difference are insecure their lives depend on having more nice things than others to prove their worth and feel that someone cheating their way to having nice things hurts their pride.

Pick somewhat related tho, I've heard good things about rep all-black Qasas. Black hides whatever faults they have, I'd imagine.

Highest Trips of Truth
Also OP buying pic related as replica's is fine because most people don't even know who Yohji is and probably refer to your shoe as
>Ninja shoe
>lol you have a mathematical equation on your shoe
That last one happened to me
>>10704210
I have them and other than the leather being shiny and the lace holders being plastic they're hard to differentiate unless of course you're on top of those shoes

Few reviews of reps y-3

y3 must have

I have rep Qasa lows, too, and you'd have to be up-close to them to see that they're reps.
Eitherway, I just got 'em for the look, not to pretend to have money -- I'll be the first to admit they're reps if asked.
>>10704622
I have those exact all-black Qasa reps. The only flaw I can think of is the Yohji name on the sole has some slight defects, but you'd have to be right up to them to see it.
The defects were likely caused when removing the sole from the mold. Otherwise, nothing outright wrong.
Op here, not that im poor; im far from it
Its just usually I don't buy designer clothing/shoes im just now getting into the market. Im planning to buy replicas and then go down to barneys and cop the real thing in order to avoid being called out poor
is ordering a rep stan smith a good idea
the market here is full of rep adidas shit anyway
>>10704965
why not just buy the genuine ones?
>>10704965
why would you buy reps then buy the real thing?
>>10705034
>>10705037
Im on the fence. Plus tuition in NYC is on my mind
>>10705056
Don't buy them then imo
It's not like you NEED them
>>10704965
Lol just skip the step and buy the real thing

come on man stop deluding yourself saying there aren't many flaws
I know for a fact being a constant lurker on rep boards that they rarely get anything 1:1, even on the most requested fuccboi yeezy reps there are constant flaws
do you really believe your lesser cared about fashion shoes are going to get better quality than that?
