Are these the shoes that Kanye west created?
Or he created very similar and people went mad for them.

Too many people have more money than sense and just buy thing’s because they think they should.

I swear the people who create these things must be laughing!
They can create anything knowing that if it’s expensive enough, some rich idiots will buy them.

Oh how fantastic, I can buy some for my wanky BIL who is always bragging about his twatty Range Rover he uses to drive to Waitrose and back.

I wouldn’t even keep them as tip shoes (you know, shoes you only wear to the tip!)

Sing along with the common people
Sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along even though they're really laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
Because you think that poor is cool

I am just waiting for someone to come along and say they have three pairs. Because something something women don't have to follow fashion rules.. That's what happened the last time we laughed at ridiculous fashion.

I've come home from muddy festivals and my trainers look cleaner than that

In Venice a few years ago I saw these, I was so taken aback I had to photograph them. The shop also had some "ready dirty" shoes but they didn't photograph well.

I couldn't believe it myself 2yrs ago going into the GG concession in Portugal. Goes well with some ripped jeans, t-shirt, and torn jacket of course. Get the (w)hole outfit and you might be mistaken for a zombie. Lol.

Pre "vintaged/destroyed" footwear is a thing at the moment.

Ha ha brilliant. Those trainers are so hot right now

'It costs a lot to look cheap'

I don't wear trainers really but I don't hate them, the colours are far more pleasing to me than those god awful brilliant white ones that look tacky as hell to me.

Ive always been baffled by the fact people seem to spend so much time looking at people feet... in day to day life I have NEVER took notice of someones shoes.

Only time I notice shoes is if its MEGA obvious like someone wearing bright pink moon boots or someone deliberately trying to flash those ugly irregular choice shoes with gnomes glued to them and stuff.

I'd never spend that much on footwear but I really like them!

Aren't there "specialist" (ahem) sites for horrible old worn shoes?

Oh they are a bit like these 😂

Yes, they must think that just because people fell for it with basic housing they will jump at the chance to buy a pair of trainers for silly money as well, LOL.

i saw them first on Jo Whiley at Glastonbury. I like them! Can’t afford them and wouldn’t spend that £££ on them but they looked so great on her that’s when I looked up which brand they were.

I just don't get that, surely they just scream more money than sense, a desperate need to show off? Of the really high status people I know, they wouldn't be seen dead in something like this. Understated luxury is the way they roll, a la Gwenyth Paltrow in the skiing accident court case.

I love the way they've been styled with a pair of Clem Fandango trousers.

These are much better

They can add the smell of cat piss for an extra
100 😐

Anyone got a spare £45k and change? They're MACHINE WASHABLE THO

I hadn't heard of them before this thread.

Seconding this, they have been the subject of other threads. But usually the ones that look a bit more like Converse. Did Jo Wiley (is that spelt correctly?) have some.

You must be new to these parts. They're not nice but to my eye they're no worse than other trainers. Seen worse on here many times.

They're not even the most expensive.
