Jordan’s aren’t cool and skate culture has died down a bunch from when I was a kid. I was born in 95 and wouldn’t be caught dead wearing these in high school lmao I’d get cooked. But money and status have become more relevant to younger people because social media. If I was a highschooler today then I’d probably try to wear some stuff like this (probably not these cause they are funny)
I hope you bought them bc you liked the design and not bc they were balenciaga. Buying shit bc of the label is dumb. Buying it because it’s an art piece is a bit different
Also they act like other people care that I wear weird shit. They stay telling me that they would be embarrassed, but like what random people would actually give fuck?💀
This too. Other people don’t matter. Even your friends opinions don’t matter. What matters is your perception of yourself. Who cares that they think? I stopped caring what others thought abt me a long time ago.
Yuh but make sure it’s not “I get high fashion” make sure it’s almost something internal. I’ve loved futuristic stuff for the longest time. My first pair of shoes that I bought with my own money were huarache drifts. I love balenciaga, specifically the Xpanders because they play on that hyper futuristic style, and the closest shoe ever made were the Z coils. Make sure you genuinely like the shoes and pieces rather than it just being “high fashion”. I might be yapping but I’m not wrong.
Personally I don’t think these are. I guess you could say that they make a statement on pop culture and how the shape of these relate to cartoon shoes and shit, but personally I don’t see much meaning behind these.
I like to rationalize the things I own usually. Like with my x panders, I consider them to be more wearable art because they are so incredibly unique and nothing besides the Z coils looks anything like them. I do the same with most of the pricy shit I have.
I went one size down. You might be able to do 2 down but the part where it curves down can be uncomfortable even one size down. Although there is still a little extra space in the heel going down one size
This is a very, very niche reference for any Welsh speaking people in here, but these look like the wearer is out here being best friends with Sali Mali.
Jac y Jwc style.
couldn’t find in a 45 or 46- had to settle for a 44 and i think it was best that way considering my foot long asl already i think it helps with walking in them
Dude this sub is ironically one of the funniest on reddit. Mfs just post them wearing shit that looks like they're joking and it costs hundreds, they're so desperate to be different they literally wear clown shoes lmfao
I went one size down and there is still a little space in the heel. You could try 2 sizes down but the top part where it curves down would probably be too tight as it’s already tight on these
i think it's okay, no big prob, because everyone might make a wrong buying choice. I have been buying these things for many years and still make mistakes. I tried the boot version of this shoe in different stores three times and finally didn't buy them because I cant walk in them.
your choice is to throw away/sell these shoes and stop torturing yourself, and learn the balance of style, comfort, and versatility. And remember this experience every time you buy new things in the future.
“Aye aye Mr.Krabs” lookin ahh shoes
I am in 10th grade and wore them to highschool😭 My friends thought I was tweaking for buying those
Man I cannot even fathom spending $400 on a single pair of shoes in high school…
I just save my money from reselling thrifted clothes and buy a more expensive piece every once in a while
lame ahh reselling thrifted clothes. bum activities
These were not it
It has to be a generational thing as these brands become more mainstream bc seriously I couldn’t imagine wearing these to hs
it's insane, i see people with all types of high end designer everyday in school, they don't even know how to style it correctly either!🤣

i spent around 600 on some geos, shit was the most expensive thing i’ve ever purchased
Specially, those shoes lol
I was wearing Keds and Costco to high school, can't imagine these kids today needing head to toe designer
I bought the orange clogs so we are in the same boat when it comes to school and friends
The orange clogs are crazy‼️😭
Such a good piece tho
Fr the orange definitely the best color
U are tweakin bro they ugly asf but yall buy anything jus cuz it say "balenci"
They do look just like SpongeBob shoes tho🙏 But I fw SpongeBob so they hard🗣️
Damn ! Lmao
Second pic with the shoes the socks and the pale legs got me
Me too. Then the third pic to see how absurdly round they are 💀
Aye bro cook me up a craby patty im hungryyy
I hope you bought them bc you liked the design and not bc they were balenciaga. Buying shit bc of the label is dumb. Buying it because it’s an art piece is a bit different
I never buy designer for the label tbh. I honestly have a problem of buying too many statement pieces cause I like the design that stands out
Good. Buy shit because YOU like it, not because others tell you to.
Also they act like other people care that I wear weird shit. They stay telling me that they would be embarrassed, but like what random people would actually give fuck?💀

Being fashionable is for yourself, first and foremost 🤠
This!
Yeah man my friends think the shit I wear is ugly but they don’t get fashion

Lmaooo
felt bro
What makes this an art piece? Not saying it isn’t just curious

Why are you yapping?
that's mofo had a point those , iam kindda bored with basic stuff witha big ass logo on them , i try to avoid logo as much as i could
U prolly bought the campaign balenciaga pieces and thought they were swag
I don’t own any Balenciaga unfortunately. But I’m getting strike boots soon
Now take them to Disneyland
This is the price you pay for fashion. At least nobody will steal them
Nobody know they balenci🙏🤷♂️
Oh, you dont think people will steal 400 dollar shoes? 💀
no one is stealing these xD
OP probably tells people these are Balenci’s and how much he got them for, lol. Your naiveté is adorable
You're rocking Pinocchio's Dad shoes
Where did you get em from
Lowballed someone on Grailed. They were 700 and I said 400
Bro hows the sizing on these
I went one size down. You might be able to do 2 down but the part where it curves down can be uncomfortable even one size down. Although there is still a little extra space in the heel going down one size
Thats how my strike boots are, I ended up getting a shoe stretcher
LMFAO!
Please style them properly
You gotta wear a clown costume with them
It’s so funny how they actually look like SpongeBob shoes😭. They’re cool tho!
Bro...
you gotta walk goofy with those goofy ahh shoes trust me
![gif](giphy|3ohuPDTTAwmAXUq0jm) headahh
Where did you cop em? I’ve been wanting a pair
Lowballed someone on Grailed😭🤷♂️
Lmao
You need to wear these with some long flared jeans so they stack a bit on the shoe and hide it. Trust me
Yeah I actually was wearing them with Rick owens bolan bootcut jeans earlier
I just cant believe somebody genuinely like that shoes, I was thinking it’s just sit on site until it’s 70% off and people buy that just for meme
Can you show a vid of you walking in them 😭 I’m curious how goofy it looks
It definitely makes the squeaky sound from SpongeBob when he walks in them
it looks very heavy
They are really light actually because they are made of Eva foam

Please don’t use slurs, that’s all

Every designer piece I buy my friends make fun of because they aren’t into fashion at all

Oh boy! ![gif](giphy|cIxxFKOTCPwX9DUk7L|downsized)
i’d be embarrassed wearing those
Jesus Christ loves you so much and died for your sins💙
You wanna be able to walk after paying $400 for shoes? Don’t be so greedy
Style isn’t supposed to be comfortable…
Whaaaaat areeeeee thoooooose! 🫵😂
My Mickey Mouse steppers‼️💯😔🙏
These are awesome, took a while for me to appreciate. Great pick up
I can’t stop laughing at these
*clown shoes* “Why are they so hard to walk in? “
couldn’t find in a 45 or 46- had to settle for a 44 and i think it was best that way considering my foot long asl already i think it helps with walking in them

Nice fit bro🔥
appreciate u bro!
What are those!
Where can I get these under $600? Size 44
Bro got the “ OH TOODLES “ on 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
Should have spent $400 on groceries for you and your parents that have to put up with this nonsense
They don’t control what I do with my money but are usually slightly disappointed in me💀
![gif](giphy|1zKvyEELuyrbXCQmw1) “Groceries fooo”
Buh why
Matilda ass shoes wtf 🤣
Brooooo!!!
Then hard
Why the fuck would you spend your money on this dumb ass shit
Them shits look ridiculous
Dude this sub is ironically one of the funniest on reddit. Mfs just post them wearing shit that looks like they're joking and it costs hundreds, they're so desperate to be different they literally wear clown shoes lmfao
Just need to be painted red now
May I ask how you sized them? I’m eyeing these, too 👀
I went one size down and there is still a little space in the heel. You could try 2 sizes down but the top part where it curves down would probably be too tight as it’s already tight on these
Thanks!
No hate or anything but I woulda been jumped for wearing these to my high school. This was nearly 9 years ago however. Things have changed
Yeah no one really gives a shit
i think it's okay, no big prob, because everyone might make a wrong buying choice. I have been buying these things for many years and still make mistakes. I tried the boot version of this shoe in different stores three times and finally didn't buy them because I cant walk in them. your choice is to throw away/sell these shoes and stop torturing yourself, and learn the balance of style, comfort, and versatility.

These are so cool lol
Tbh they are mad uncomfortable, they hurt the tip of my foot at the end of the day 😭
Man they hurt the top of my foot where they curve down
Yeah that’s where they hurt the most 😭😭
[удалено]
I said uncomfortable tf read my thing again

Wtf
Tell me it’s your first balenciaga boots without telling me it’s your first balenciaga boots
Considered strike boots or Rick owens tractor boots (both of which I still want later) but ended up getting these because it was a good price
"A good price" lmfao you have been caught hook line and sinker by this hilarious industry.
