I have seen so many hipsters wearing those in Paris though.. and they are all white and black ppl actually.
To be fair most shoes aren’t worth their retail price when factoring labor and materials. What drives value is craftsmanship and branding

When Balenciaga shoes were manufactured in Italy I could (ever so slightly) agree with the pricetag. They were the Ferrari of sneakers so to speak. But now they're mass produced in China, so IMO they should be priced in the same realm as Nike/Adidas/etc.

i mean just cuz theyre from china doesnt mean theyre all the same. there are probably good chinese factories and ones that mass produce shit but putting them all in the same boat cuz theyre from china sounds a bit unfair...

@@danielkim6751 I am definitely not saying that they are all the same, because they're definitely not. I am just saying that the labor costs of producing these shoes in Chinese factories is MUCH lower than the costs of producing them in Italy. Therefore there's no longer a legitimate reason these Balenciaga sneakers should still be priced the way they are. Plus, I've read many accounts of a decrease in quality ever since the manufacturing got moved out of Italy.

You genius
Great video guys. Really liked how you pointed out the difference between having money versus being cool and that just because you’re wearing something that’s expensive doesn’t mean it looks good.
Throw the balenciaga logo on sketchers and boom they’ll sell
They are very well crafted. I’d pay $400
I seem to be the only one really liking this shoe, thing is; the fact that everybody says their overpriced makes me wonder if i should get them and if i will regret it if i do.
loved this a lot, thanks for quality content and reviews!
I'm there with you,Foamie. Money doesn't make cool.

You made the point perfectly. I maintain that many of the less popular Jordan's (14 and up) would be high fashion sneakers if they weren't "Jordans". If the 18s came out of a fashion house and were called dix-huit , they'd be covered like Yeezys in prior years.
Love the videos bro. Keep it up!!
Reminds me of sociology class talking about a person’s status. Good video!
I love the combination of red and black and grey in general, so these shoes look really cool to me. But the price tag, though...

Finally a video on this topic
i love these shoes, prolly my favourite shoes of all time. just my opinion, ik people hate these, but i think thats what makes this shoe cooler for me.
I see alot of people saying they're too expensive and stuff but these shoes are definitely made for people who can spend money without caring.

Oscar de la Renta, Valentino, E. Ungaro, Hubert de Givenchy, Christian Dior, and some others where Balenciaga’s pupils. Only for those reasons, the price is worth it! Best wishes from GDL JAL MX !
Am I the only one who noticed that fire ass sweater he had on on that podcast???
I just bought the Grey washed triple S kicks. I love the defenders, but they don’t drop below retail that much. I love the triple S grey. They’re mad comfortable, bricks, but comfy and they go w anything. I absolutely have loved these for years and got them for under retail.
Will you guys ever put the podcasts on KZread?
In the uk, the retail is £650 but I bought my pair for £425 at a designer outlet
Where can we find video of the podcast?! Been listening on soundcloud. #androidlife
I love my Saint Laurent and Prada sneakers. I don't own a lot because the price tag hurts my heart but i still love them and to me they're worth every penny. I don't think every designer shoe is worth the price tag though.
I have the same exact color way and ask how many times I've worn... none.Way too heavy and I waited too long to return.
Saw u at a sushi place bro! Didn’t want to bother tho 👌🏽
I like these designer sneaker reviews
Every time you slap the heel on your hand with other shoes in slo mo, a wave travels through them. With these it shakes your whole body lol
Nice video, could you please make one on the Speed Trainers? They're my favorite shoe to date, the upper is the most comfortable I've ever had, but the midsole could be softer

Update i have only 1 pair and these was a black and white xD the red one just broke i dont recomend balenciaga at all.
WHICH is worse paying a high resale price of a shoe or paying high for a designer shoe?
Great vid
I would say the driving force for these is famous people started wearing them and it started to spread like wildfire.
this shoe and this exact colorway was the first designer sneaker i’ve ever copped. hated paying $900 for them, definitely not worth the price AT ALL but the shoe itself is extremely dope if you look at all the detail put into it. if these were $500 i’d say it’s fair price. that goes for the made in Italy pairs, not the made in china pairs

They are hella comfortable doe it’s just the weight that makes it uncomfortable when walking

these are prob the cleanest looking pair of triple s’s
Review the ASAP Rocky Underarmour sneaker
Just got my first pair of triple s yesterday, made sure to get the made in Italy ones because the price tag on the mic ones isn’t justified. I’m okay with spending a grand on Italian sneakers
People complain about designer shoes but I don’t hear nun when they buy reskined Jordan 1s for 2k
Puma thunder spectra look similar but better for 1/10th the price
I'm just happy somebody is finally ripping off Sketchers for a change, instead of the other way around
Is it me or did he not say they weigh 850 pounds🤔
Price aside...I feel like in the same way I won't buy a tuxedo made by Nike, I wouldn't purchase a sneaker from a luxury brand.
Its a designer brand why wouldnt the shors be expensive like the clothes
I wish I had one of the Sole pairs🤤
You said they weigh 850 lbs?
For £250-300, that colourway is awesome
If they pay me the price then I'd prolly wear em'
I go to sleep to casino and goodfellas and snapped so who am I to judge lol.
