I bet not a single legitimate PPG fan got to actually buy the sneakers. They were all gone within hours and reappear on the reseller market for >$250 each. Also fuck Nike for making such a limited edition sneakers. I refuse to play their game.

Thankfully there’s always the 1:1 bootleg replica market. It is actually nice that you don’t feel bad wearing your sneakers outside like a regular human being rather than keeping them in the closet.

    I got to visit Japan and my wife insisted we spend hours in Uniqlo shopping, while we were at Shibuya Square.

    I… don’t understand. But she was ecstatic.

      It’s reasonably priced basics that are decent quality. That shouldn’t stand out, but we live in a fast fashion world lol.

      Their brick and mortar stores are pretty uncommon in the US, so I’d probably be pretty hype to visit one even if it’s silly to be hype about that.

      Uniqlo is good for basics. Maybe Japan had better inventory. I know a lot of western tourists are ecstatic visiting Japanese gas stations to buy microwave food and Kit Kats lol. So weird.
