Balenciaga Triple S Breds: Don't Believe The Hype
Ойын-сауық
Complex's weekly series Don't Believe the Hype takes a look at what's hot and what's just hot air. Sneakers, clothes, tech, food-nothing is safe. One of the most hyped sneakers in the last few years is Balenciaga's Triple S sneaker. So what happens when they decide to drop a "bred" colorway very similar to the Jordan 1? The hype was so big, we decided to wait on line for several hours in the rain to get these...and Complex employees didn't hold back at all when they got their eyes on them, in this episode of Don't Believe The Hype.

When this vid dropped I didn’t believe the hype too, and now I’m literally about to buy a pair next week.

On foot it looks fine imo, not worth $850 though. And people are complaining about the price, obviously it’s marketed to people who have that amount of money to spend so what are you complaining for if you don’t even like it? And it’s pretty bold saying that “nobody” likes Balenciaga shoes and that people only like them for “the hype” because people have different tastes and they’re made by a designer brand. Tbh I don’t even know why I’m talking about this because at the end of the day people are people and shoes are just fuckin shoes...

really the only people I see wear the balenciaga triple s are fashionistas that are not into "hypebeast" or "complex". they're usually into "vogue", "harpers bazaar", etc...

Go to Seoul, Korea we come in a bunch of groups, and some of them are rocking Triple S. It's funny how American fashion culture couldn't handle this shoe since they are stuck with their bogos, hoodies, and skinny distressed jeans. Pretty much what 12 American kids would wear. Lol

"I didn't realise, there are literally three soles" IM DONEEEEE
I bought em and they are super comfortable. Downside was they only came in 1 size and my feet look really big. Still worth it in my opinion, plus I got it for 550-ish dollars on therealreal so yay for me

Sure the look is polarizing, but in/on person they are actually quite nice. the shoes are actually the comfiest pair of sneakers I have ever worn. yes they are way overpriced especially now that it is made in china. but if they were maybe 250$ they would be the best sneakers ever.

You must be broke as hell. I have it and the Balcenciaga's are the most uncomfortable shoe in my collection. I'll probably give it away to my little cousin. They're heavy and don't compare to literally any nike or Jordan I have. Just admit you're a sheep
When the guy said by the shape of the box i thought you where doing an episode on birthday cake 🎂. The rice I was eating went up my nostril, next time I see don’t believe the hype I would make sure I’m not eating

Man I'm glad these weren't around growing up, my dad loved launching shoes at me while being lazy watching tv and I was being annoying,,,these things would've caused lots of damage property alone including human KO's and TKO's...shoe (pun intended SHEW!)
1:35 pure comedy
It's just part of the oversized culture that we're currently in. Everyone's rocking oversized jackets right now, so what's so bad about an oversized shoe?
A must cop.
Bought mine for € 779 ! Dublin 🇮🇪 Triple S CLEAR’S 🔥🔥🔥 When you put them and look down at them and see how crazy they look and how comfortable they are, the air bubble with the sole helps, not with the weight.. doh!. You will want them. First time walking in them is funny but you get used to the weight over time. If making long distances bring a backpack and some Yeezy’S or Ultra-Boost as back-ups. They should be €550 since making the move to China 🇨🇳,

It`s a very comfortable shoe... when u try on u will see, but it is really big. If u are used to "daddy shoes" they will be great, in fact they are lighter than Dolce Gabana Daymaster.

Its actually quite comfortable thoo honestly.And its not as heavy its expected to be.But yeah its still an expensive shoe.But what can u expect a shoe from a designer brands right?😅
What happens if a person was shooting at you and was aiming for your back?
Yo it's the chop cheese guy
There are a number of shoes in this new dad shoe trend that have grown on me, but I still don't like the triple s. I like the yeezy 700 and 500, puma spectra, adidas yung 1, and even the m2k techno by Nike to an extent, but these.... nah... I'll keep y'all posted if that changes lmfao.
Its fashion and form of self expression. Its not believing the hype or not but if you can incorporate these quirky comfortable sneakers in your wardrobe from time to time,I guess that it. Its how you carry it. Its 1% shoes and 99% attitude.

personal I believe these shoes are a testament to American culture in our current time frame. Overcompensation, Affluence, Hype, Faux Dirtiness, nineties back in style, etc..Surprised you all aren't more into them?
Send me a pair I'd rock them.
Those shoes are so big they make regular pants look like skinny jeans
Only the people who know how to be themselves understand how fucking amazing this shoe is
Everyone that ACTUALLY dressed well believed
After seeing the balenciaga fashion show. It kinda make sense. But honestly those are too big and bulky to be considered a "sneaker"
I saw these on dhgate
Are they some crocs covered in ketchup?
Ppl say they ugly but I cant be the only one that didnt knew what balenciaga was and likes how they look 😂😖
If its comfortable than the yeezys, i could buy those clouds
