This red pill nutter doesn't like my sneakers.



If I didn't buy those 6 or 7 pairs of really expensive sneakers I would be making mid 6-figures instead of low 6-figures.

Dammit.

I've been transformed. #trumpf2020

Why is the video specifically calling out sneakers? Did everybody stop wasting their money on everything else?

A channel like that just saddens me. Aimed at vulnerable people seeking help, that person produces phony self-help videos in order to push his political opinion.

Stanley, first time, long time here. Would you recommend shoes for me so I look like an adult instead of an overaged college student?

How on Earth do those warrant a $180 price tag?

Those look so uncomfortable that I would argue they are closer to dress shoes than sneakers.

For that same $180, you can buy a pair of Adidas Ultraboosts. Such an easy decision.

Ah, well this is an American company that makes all their shoes in a small Italian factory. They use top grain leather and Margom cups. They're very nice. My pair is almost 2 years old and other than creasing there's little sign that they've every been used. I wear them probably 2x week.

Ultraboosts look like uber douche shoes and fall apart in weeks.

this is representative of a bro in ubs. I'm all for hype pieces, but every dude who flies in these looks like a f***ing clown. And that's coming from me - someone who prides themselves on looking poor as shit.

The culture of grown men wearing trainers for fashion has got to be the worst thing about they hypebeast culture. I hate it.

He looks like a clown regardless of his shoes. Throw your leather Vans on him and he would still look ridiculous.

Your shoes look like they belong on someone with a popped collar, spiked bangs, and ripped Abercrombie & Fitch jeans. Do you also own a pair of Rainbow Sandals and a puka shell necklace?

Sneakers aren't meant to be "fashionable", as in, I wouldn't wear them if I was dressing to impress. They're meant to be everyday 'I don't give a f***' wear.

Yeah, we're just this humble little small town shoe company that gets sold at mother f***ing Barney's.

Oh, excuse me, you appear to have dropped your monocle.

Ah, I see your butler is getting it for you.

I’d say something like this is more his speed.

Probably @Swedish Puck Mafia too since he’s all about functionality. Why bother with laces? Velcro is faster, probably won’t get as dirty or something, and no worry of having to replace a ripped lace or anything right?

f***ing mook.

I don't know where you get that idea from. The majority of my shoes are Nike and Adidas.

I was advocating for Adidas Ultra Boosts, which are most definitely not sold at Walmart.

Yeah, we pretty clearly have differing tastes.

I just know my feet would hurt so much wearing those no-support shoes.

When I searched Common Projects, Barney's was the first or second result.
