Would it be alright to wear reps of legit pairs you own but are way out of reach to double up on (and would like to preserve for the near future)? Can also apply to pairs you own but are beat up to the point that they’re not comfy enough to use 😂

Picture for attention 😄

    Do you but wearing a shoe is part of making it last longer. Why would you wear reps while your legit pair sits and crumbles?

    Yeah but what about the day you finally get called out for wearing reps and you have to respond with “I-I have the r-real thing at home!”, sounds embarrassing ngl

    Got myself a pair of fake Mars Yard 2.0 and I love them. If you really want an expensive sneaker and don’t want to pay the crazy prices some go for then do it. I really like how the mars yard looks, it’s not a crazy shoe at all, just quantities and hype made them unobtainable, I tried making copies on a pair of Nike Internationals on ByYou which looked good but at £135 for a mock I thought I’d leave it. Then stumbled across someone selling a fake pair for £25, snapped them up and they are really good.

      Totally understand you man esp when it comes to pairs that are way out of reach nowadays. Personally it’s just a battle against my conscience if you know what I mean

      The Lost and Founds are a sz 12.5 US and the Sky Jordans are what they used to call the kid models of the shoe.

    Reps if you just want something to beat bro, not worth beating shoes you paid a lot for

    For a $400-$500 pair like Lost & Founds? Wear the damn shoe. If you’re talking a true grail that’d be upwards of a few thousand, do the reps. Really tho do whatever you want nobody in the real world will care what you’re wearing

      It was in a sneaker shop in Ginza, Tokyo! I believe it’s simply a hole in the wall with a glass door 😂
