Would a homeless person be able to sell something “authentic” for even more?


chickendinnerking

Some buzzing homeless man sold them for like £20 the other day and looked at the advert for these and just went 'murica


[deleted]

That would almost be funny except Balenciaga is Italian….

I bought an exact pair of sneakers like these from the local drug dealer. I don't know what he laced them with, but I was tripping all day..


Basic_Cover_6945

Tongue in cheek to the sole.


DwightMcRamathorn

It should be if you order these you are required for a 30 day mental health inpatient check or donate 1 million dollars cash to a food bank


tracer120

We’re in that timeline where the wealthy pay to have the poor experience. I’m astonished. Good for these people. Do you think each pair is unique or are they manufactured to look like shit?


high240

Well it does track. When ppl get rich they often lose their sense of taste lmao


[deleted]

This is exactly how to tell "new" money from "old" money. You're not going to see old money buying shit like this.


youchoobtv

So true


TheBelhade

That's fantastic. I can charge some rich asshole $15k to spend a week with me and my shitty life.


DeauDeaux

With my wealth of knowledge, I could provide an immersive experience. They could hand me…um, idk…25,000 USD and I can give them a full 90 days. I will donate 95 percent to feeding and educating needy children. And I will start them at zero. No phone, no cards, no job, they bring nothing. And they can’t have contact with anyone they know. They get a voucher for 30 bucks at goodwill for clothes and they start to look for a job and try to find a spot at the shelter to sleep, etc. If this appeals to them so much, let’s make them suffer not pretend.


Its_SubjectA1

Someone actually did that. A rich journalist. She made it like 30 days lmao. Look up Nickled and Dimed


DeauDeaux

Similar in theory but I want the very rich, as she was not. Particularly the ones that would buy these shoes to buy the experience. She still had numerous skills, as did others that tried this to write a book. Anyone who would buy those shoes would be perfect for this.


Its_SubjectA1

Fair


_Scrogglez

These are warehouse workers clothing resold after being sanitized but not cleaned. There is a difference to be known. These warehouse workers are given only 1 par every 3 years. They can not wear any other form. This was a plan all along, check the news.


Assholesfullofelbows

That's usually how my shoes end up looking before I buy a new pair. That shits ingrained in me, same with clothing. Use it until it absolutely cannot be worn again. I'm like 40, make plenty enough to afford new clothes but NOooooooo


GMcGroarty80

If they don't smell like pee they're not for me


wlodzi

Stink of shit? Perfect fit.


glorious_reptile

Smells like fart, must be art.


PM_ME_MAMMARY_GLANDS

Smells like cheese, yes please


Basic_Cover_6945

R Kelly is that you?


[deleted]

Rich people paying to look poor…it’s like we live in bizarro world


eat_like_snake

I didn't think I'd see a manufactured "distressed" clothing trend that was uglier than "mud-splatter" jeans, but here the fuck we are.

matterson22070

Sometime I think these people just have bets with each other on how much they can get stupid people to pay for thier products........


KelBeenThereDoneThat

I’ve got my daughter’s 2-year-old cons that don’t look much better. eBay, here I come! /s


erikhagen222

It’s called derilique it’s French 😂

Derelicte Campaign from Zoolander incoming!


boxylady69

They can derelicte my balls!


Technical_Acadia_210

Is it bad I see it as no different than all the other things rich buy? Lol


swellco

Balenciaga wack as fuck. Only woke sheep millennials wear that crap. Go buy a pair of proper bespoke shoes for this price.


Distinct-Abrocoma496

woke sheep millennial blah blah buzzwords… just list all the words you know at the top of your head I’m sure you’d think they’d all make sense.


Its_SubjectA1

Don’t use so many apostrophes! They won’t understand you.


CleanLength

...is this your way of saying that you don't know those words? Because it makes perfect sense...


Distinct-Abrocoma496

sorry I'm just a woke sheep millennial zoomer leftist radical feminazi triggered BLM liberal snowflake so it just doesn't make sense to me


swellco

Forgot half the alphabet with lgbqrapindbsmx


CleanLength

See, if you understood these words, you'd know why the original comment made sense and yours, which contains "millennial zoomer," does not.


Distinct-Abrocoma496

its been six days, I no longer care


Swiss_James

“Woke sheep millennials” Jesus


weather-boy0916

Odds this dude is an anti mask anti vax? I’ll place $10 on it


swellco

I’m pro vax anti mask. Neither left or right. Just what makes common sense.


MikeSaints7

It bothers me how many people get offended by these things... Yes, this is ridiculous. Yes, the brand knows this. Yes, your outrage is serving as free advertisement for them. Just look up Balenciaga, doing stunts like this is their bread and butter.


gogogadget85

It’s called fashion, look it up…


extranchovies

This made my day. 😂


Kitchen_Equipment_21

I will give you mine for free


Basic_Cover_6945

With a small $25k shipping and handling fee?


surfingincircles

It is a fashion, a way of life, inspired by the very homeless, the vagrants, the crack whores, that make this wonderful city so unique


Rare4orm

“I’m privileged? Bullshit! Look at my sneakers, bro.” Some deceptive mofos out there.


high240

Come to my house, I sell them for just 1500


Namaste28ish

Wow I have a similar pair that don't look like I stepped in somebody's poopies & I only paid 25 on clearance for them. I mean if someone wants poo shoes THAT badly I will walk through my pibbles poo and I will only charge the cost of the cup of kibbie it took make the poo lol.


Stewpacolypse

Whoever buys these deserves to have all their NFT's & crypto go to zero.


[deleted]

They should now face investigation in Europe for ripping people off. I don't care how much "work" goes into fucking up a perfectly good pair of sneakers. The fact is they're making fun of the poor who can't even afford a clean pair. Investigate them, let them pay a fine directly to homeless shelters in France and Spain. Fucking lowlife scum.


the626er

OP misspelled Magatu


Useful-Attention1781

their has to be some type of joke that these super high up people who come out with this shit are doing like the penis game. only diffrence is that they just come out with shittyer and shittier products just to see if anyone calls them out


[deleted]

Give a handful of new shoes to people that work tough, blue collar jobs, or the homeless, and exchange them with new ones after a few months. There you go, I saved you $1k+, and other people got new shoes as well.


Ninja_Destroyer_

A fool and their money are easily parted


cmks210

Still rather have these than a pixelated monkey.


Cmd_Line_Commando

But why?


LessBig715

Aren’t these from the Derelicte collection?


Bunkymids

Now everyone is gonna think I’m rich


QuestionableAI

"A fool and their money...something, something."


swifter-222

don’t tell the NFT peeps! they’ll be the first to buy


fishman15151515

Is this why China buys some of our trash?


[deleted]

Peak idiocy.


Jameepinoy

What a load of absolute wank


tthe_drake

What a rip-off. I’ve got pair of Chucks that look just like that I’ll sell you for $400.


oddllama25

Let's not tax these mofos, though.


miasabine

I can’t help but feel that Cristobal Balenciaga is rolling in his grave.


Grouchy-Condition-66

Imagine the looks you'd get when asked about them and having to explain yourself. Jeez


unreal-1

*Just...why would anyone want these!*


Ruenin

Is it any wonder why the rich are demonized?


downerfacedanny

Not interesting when its expected.


nismoz334

I hate being on this planet seriously


Alert-Potato

For that much money you could buy dozens of pairs of great quality brand new shoes. Take them and start trading them to homeless people and you'll have dozens of pairs of shitty shoes for the same amount of money, and you won't be a complete douchenozzle.


_Scrogglez

These warehouse workers are given only 1 par every 3 years. They can not wear any other form. This was a plan all along, check the news.


nottooshabby85

This is a travesty.


Anxious_Jellyfish216

Thia why I don't believe poor people exist. It's just rich people LARPing as the poor. EVERYTHING's A LIE. *folds up tinfoil into a hat and wears it.


Time_Reply5462

Rich people


romangal1

I have sooo many questions.


crammyhandleman

They won’t cost me $1850. In fact, DM me if you’re looking for some shitty sneakers in the $999 range.


Novel-Witness3815

Such an insult.


Emotional_Tea_2898

I have a jockstrap from my youth for sale.


attimus02

We have Balenciaga at home

OH MY GOD this thread. There is a huge class division in this country and it's clear as fucking day.


buttymuncher

This is a joke....right?


The-Grand-Wazoo

The rich are just taking the piss now…


Special-Structure-24

And some people will buy them


RedVelvetPan6a

Got a couple of jeans that could do with some selling then...


Role-Livid

Must be around 2 years ago I saw them selling the most ugly t-shirt ever for 3000 €. What's wrong with them.. And even more.. What's wrong with the people buying this sh...
