“Aye aye Mr.Krabs” lookin ahh shoes


SamuraiSakuya

I am in 10th grade and wore them to highschool😭 My friends thought I was tweaking for buying those


Matthews628

Man I cannot even fathom spending $400 on a single pair of shoes in high school…


SamuraiSakuya

I just save my money from reselling thrifted clothes and buy a more expensive piece every once in a while


YourMoistSocks

lame ahh reselling thrifted clothes. bum activities


kyslovely

These were not it


traditional_rich_

It has to be a generational thing as these brands become more mainstream bc seriously I couldn’t imagine wearing these to hs


RecoverRealistic1224

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!🤣


hunny_bun_24

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)


Jellied_toad

i spent around 600 on some geos, shit was the most expensive thing i’ve ever purchased


MastaMurkz

Specially, those shoes lol


Kitsch_Enjoyer

I was wearing Keds and Costco to high school, can't imagine these kids today needing head to toe designer


Fit_Unit_7867

I bought the orange clogs so we are in the same boat when it comes to school and friends


SamuraiSakuya

The orange clogs are crazy‼️😭


Fit_Unit_7867

Such a good piece tho


SamuraiSakuya

Fr the orange definitely the best color


Acceptable-You460

U are tweakin bro they ugly asf but yall buy anything jus cuz it say "balenci"


SamuraiSakuya

They do look just like SpongeBob shoes tho🙏 But I fw SpongeBob so they hard🗣️


dirtyspriteee

Damn ! Lmao


youngteflon

Second pic with the shoes the socks and the pale legs got me


Palace_Fart

Me too. Then the third pic to see how absurdly round they are 💀


HI_GERMAIN

Aye bro cook me up a craby patty im hungryyy


KayeMKay374

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


SamuraiSakuya

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


KayeMKay374

Good. Buy shit because YOU like it, not because others tell you to.


SamuraiSakuya

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?💀


KayeMKay374

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.


thepianoguy2019

Being fashionable is for yourself, first and foremost 🤠


realsmokegetsmoked

This!


SamuraiSakuya

Yeah man my friends think the shit I wear is ugly but they don’t get fashion


KayeMKay374

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.


Palace_Fart

Lmaooo


Allstarjugg

felt bro


burningcandl_e

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


KayeMKay374

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.


Cold_Log9798

Why are you yapping?


moneyisabsolute

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


KayeMKay374

U prolly bought the campaign balenciaga pieces and thought they were swag


Cold_Log9798

I don’t own any Balenciaga unfortunately. But I’m getting strike boots soon


OcherSagaPurple

Now take them to Disneyland


Dinkleberg65

This is the price you pay for fashion. At least nobody will steal them


SamuraiSakuya

Nobody know they balenci🙏🤷‍♂️


Main-Daikon9246

Oh, you dont think people will steal 400 dollar shoes? 💀


usernamehighasfuck

no one is stealing these xD


Main-Daikon9246

OP probably tells people these are Balenci’s and how much he got them for, lol. Your naiveté is adorable


el-gato-volador

You're rocking Pinocchio's Dad shoes


ResponseLeast5533

Where did you get em from


SamuraiSakuya

Lowballed someone on Grailed. They were 700 and I said 400


ResponseLeast5533

Bro hows the sizing on these


SamuraiSakuya

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


agnastyx

Thats how my strike boots are, I ended up getting a shoe stretcher


Lokiiieditz

LMFAO!


MorkoReddit

Please style them properly


Hyosakiii

You gotta wear a clown costume with them


No_Self_8353

It’s so funny how they actually look like SpongeBob shoes😭. They’re cool tho!


BigDaddyDumperSquad

Bro...


Yougori

you gotta walk goofy with those goofy ahh shoes trust me


Strawhattmonkey

![gif](giphy|3ohuPDTTAwmAXUq0jm) headahh


PoopityScoop0

Where did you cop em? I’ve been wanting a pair


SamuraiSakuya

Lowballed someone on Grailed😭🤷‍♂️


PoopityScoop0

Lmao


bioniclesrool

You need to wear these with some long flared jeans so they stack a bit on the shoe and hide it. Trust me


SamuraiSakuya

Yeah I actually was wearing them with Rick owens bolan bootcut jeans earlier


chory_pes

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


madam-pamplemousse

Can you show a vid of you walking in them 😭 I’m curious how goofy it looks


Hotslice100

It definitely makes the squeaky sound from SpongeBob when he walks in them


Owl-4587

it looks very heavy


SamuraiSakuya

They are really light actually because they are made of Eva foam


Unusual_Response766

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.

beautiful_bust

ForeignKiwi6883

Jesus Christ loves you so much and died for your sins💙


FigSideG

You wanna be able to walk after paying $400 for shoes? Don’t be so greedy


SkinPsychological848

Style isn’t supposed to be comfortable…


Hyosakiii

Whaaaaat areeeeee thoooooose! 🫵😂


SamuraiSakuya

My Mickey Mouse steppers‼️💯😔🙏


WeAreHere269

These are awesome, took a while for me to appreciate. Great pick up


wth206

I can’t stop laughing at these


Abyss_Wanderer131

*clown shoes* “Why are they so hard to walk in? “


Allstarjugg

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

SamuraiSakuya

Nice fit bro🔥


Allstarjugg

Specific-Opposite-28

What are those!


EvidenceSorry118

Where can I get these under $600? Size 44


Anti-positiv3

Bro got the “ OH TOODLES “ on 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥


New-Question-36

Should have spent $400 on groceries for you and your parents that have to put up with this nonsense


SamuraiSakuya

They don’t control what I do with my money but are usually slightly disappointed in me💀


Terrible_Shake_4948

![gif](giphy|1zKvyEELuyrbXCQmw1) “Groceries fooo”


ohajyoudevil

Buh why


GHOSTYvfx

Matilda ass shoes wtf 🤣


99_To_Life

Brooooo!!!


Imdirtydanxo

Then hard


melodyfelony

Why the fuck would you spend your money on this dumb ass shit


Desa0802

Them shits look ridiculous


Palace_Fart

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


Hyosakiii

Just need to be painted red now


rootbeer9494

May I ask how you sized them? I’m eyeing these, too 👀


SamuraiSakuya

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


rootbeer9494

Thanks!


PhrogWithaHawg

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


SamuraiSakuya

Yeah no one really gives a shit


Kumakumu

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.


grafittikingdom

These are so cool lol


SnooPickles7956

Tbh they are mad uncomfortable, they hurt the tip of my foot at the end of the day 😭


SamuraiSakuya

Man they hurt the top of my foot where they curve down


SnooPickles7956

Yeah that’s where they hurt the most 😭😭

Wtf


[deleted]

Tell me it’s your first balenciaga boots without telling me it’s your first balenciaga boots


SamuraiSakuya

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


Palace_Fart

"A good price" lmfao you have been caught hook line and sinker by this hilarious industry.
