Reps has been the way to battle out the sneaker resell culture. Some reps are straight up 1:1 now, depending on the source. Easier to wear at the end of the day without as much care than the real deal.
With reps nobody will call you out if they do they look really funny either that they’re insecure as long as you got a cute personality and you know how to coordinate outfits and know how to match things you’ll be good! And nobody should make you feel less than regardless of what you have and that goes with everything!
if they call you out, call them out for being a weirdo looking at your feet for a long time just to start an argument about what you got on your feet haha.
Amount of people with both encyclopedic knowledge of colorways and telescopic vision to spot minor differences _out in the real world_ is very, very small. Wear with confidence!
@@NE0C0R7EX Only person to comment on my replicas was a Foot Locker employee. 100% wearing with confidence because “an expert” can’t tell and says “nice shoes!”
If there's anything I've learned about rep Mochas it's that the suede on replicas are usually a lot nicer/more alive than on retail, it's not supposed to be that nice lmfao
Ive got kids to feed, reps are a great way for me to wear what I like affordably. If anybody called me out id tell them they were reps and why I wear reps but Ive never been called out.
I’ve had bad craftsmanship on authentic sneakers. Not uncommon. It’s another reason why I like to by shoes in person at a retailer rather than online. Hard to do these days and a lot of retros have flaws
Really good video on reps! Imo I resort to reps when I can't buy a specific pair I really really want for retail price such as the ts x frag lows when it was announced and I took an L, I just thought it looked so sick and it wasn't even about the hype (as what everyone thinks for shoes that cost thousands for resell) I just wanted and liked how it would look on my feet, it was just a really sick sneaker by itself - I cannot and will never even attempt to spend 2k on shoes even if I could afford ten of them, there are much more important places to put your money on - maybe I would if I plan to use it as an investment - but I love wearing my shoes and practically turning them to beaters. Reps allowed me to just enjoy the sneakers that I want and really enjoy them for myself.
Same. I saw a pair of Jordan Low Travis Scott Mocha LAST summer at a flea market outside Philly, this vendor has been there for a while and has some amazing looking reps. Loved this TS Low Mocha sneaker...impossible to the grab real on release day. This guy had it for $140, looked and felt amazing.... I totally would have bought that but he didn't have my size. After that, he moved his site to a totally different and larger location in NJ. One of these weekends I'll stop up there. Point blank...I simply refuse to spend resell...700...800, 1000+ on sneakers!
At this stage, and assuming you got a decent quality reps, nobody will know they're reps. The only way they can find out is if you flat out tell them or they get unrealistically close to look at them with stuff like a black light or see the stitching.
I notice resellers tend to do that a lot like these big corporations don’t have sweat shops with little kids in them and overpricing shoes that cost at the most 20 bucks to make and selling them for over 200 bucks
I wouldn't say most people "know these" as the "Mocha." They just know it as a brown/black/white pair of high tops/Nikes/Jordans. Sneakerheads and Watch idiot Savants vastly overestimate how close people are observing details of their outfits. As SHEROY says, it's about the _entire outfit_ and not about one single detail above all else. Plus, you can only "flex" so much; if you're "dripped out" in Audimar Peakgay, Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Luigi Viton, Patrick Phillip, Rolex, etc. etc. etc. but if you're getting out of a smashed up Nissan with peeling tint, a spare tire and a bumper dragging behind you ain't nobody thinking you're hot shit or rich. Lets be real here, it's pretty damn cringe to wear _any_ visible logos. You're not a sponsored athlete, brand ambassador or on the clock, don't make yourself a billboard for some globohomo corporation that wouldn't spit on you if you were dying of thirst.
I gave the company permission to post their site in the comments and pin it but in order to comply with RUclips's rules and regulations not gonna share it elsewhere sorry 😔
Great vid. 💯💯💯Very very hard to tell on foot and the smell goes away after a couple of days if you leave them out of the box. Personally I wear reps and retail the top batches of reps are incredible quality some batches are terrible tho. If it does not come directly from Nike or a Nike retailer I’m not buying it. Gotta be careful out there. I live in NYC and no one ever calls you out only if you’re in high school. You can’t wear a pair of off white reps and dress like a slob. Sometimes top tier reps will pass a black light test also no guidelines, stamps or water marks. DO NOT SELL THEM THOUGH
I hit on the Travis Scott Olive's...but I don't want to ruin them by wearing them out, so I want to get reps. I just don't know where to get them, I keep getting so many sketchy advertisements on Instagram, do you have any recommendations for a legit place to get them?
imagine if this dude spoke like that in real life...it would get very tiring real quick. everything is in really short sentences...with a break...and then he inflects down on every other sentence...
Im thinking they didn't care at first but im sure someone did they just didn't post weather they thought or knew if they were real or not and i doubt anyone would really come to u and say hey those are fake or whatever ya know . I mean especially if the reps are made thst well
1.1 Rep are same with retails, they made with same machine and material. $40 rep are BS $150 REP of any brand is the best rep. Not for resale at retail price that is the rule, no matter how good the quality of the rep.
You can get near flawless reps for between $10-$100 if you buy direct If spending over $100 on reps, your getting fleeced. $40-$60 is what I spend on average per pair including shipping. Usually ship 5-10 pair at a time I got a pair of TS Reverse Mochas last Christmas that would be would be tough to tell even with an authentic right next to it and they were under $50 and nearly a year early. Lol
Great video bro. I have over 50 pairs of Jordan's still DS. I would love nothing more than to sell them at resale and buy my favorites UA. BUT I DON'T HAVE A GOOD REP CONNECT...it's soooo hard to find a decent seller at a decent price with decent quality. If I found one I could trust......oops man they would get rich off me..
I will start off by saying this, I was a sneakerhead since 1991 I was 15 years old at the time, and I am now 46. Yes I still love my air jordans, my Air maxes, and so on. However, I'm at the age now where I don't want my money to go in places where it's not really deserved. I don't want to keep supporting Nike and keep feeding their greed. However, keep in mind that whether they are authentic or replicas, the same people manufactures both. Yes I still like that keep a shoe collection, but my money is more deserving towards my daughter. In addition my house is more important. Remember those who are flashy are the most broke people in the world. Needless to say 90% of my kicks are authentic while the rest are replicas and I actually enjoyed replicas more than the official ones
Thanks for sharing your insights with the younger generation and allowing them to see there are more important things than just a large sneaker collection. I personally am fortunate due to the revenue from this channel, im able to use and invest into clothing which doubles as content and also use my main source of income to put towards my savings
id rather pay 150 for a rep set of 4s and wear them than pay 400+ for the same pair but real and be scared to wear em lol exactly what im doing with my cool greys right now. fuck em
The quality control on shoes have been terrible, if you don't wanna pay these outrages prices for shoes, buy the reps. Your gonna wear them and you don't have to worry if they get messed up. 👍👍👍
I'm going to put you on game player, also keep in mind that there are ways that you can restore the reps too. If the paint starts to wear off, there's acrylic paint and mod that can keep the sneakers long lasting
Look at all these early reviews on pairs of Jordan 1 Chicago and Taxis everyone's frothing on? All reps. No one knows you wear reps, they're that spot these days. I would rather wear them than feed the scalpers that take the retails away from consumers then put them in your face at a premium. They're over priced retail let alone on resale market. Buying inflated priced shoes is dumbass. To spend your hard earned money you have to enter draws, raffles and apps. Fuck taking Ls every release I still try retail first but I have one pair of reps and they're that good it's ridiculous. Oh another reason not to pay resale is legit checkers are bullshit. I've received fakes twice on ebay with authentication. Never buying resale again
Once it airs out the smell goes away. It's mainly because the shoe goes straight from the factory floor to your door and not aired out like a retail pair
No one gunna know they're fake but YOU'LL know they fake...and we are all our own worst critic. If you're spending $200 on fakes, you can get a dope real pair of shoes for that price and feel good about wearing them.
Every time I watch one of these videos I laugh. All of you run to RUclips and point out these supposedly flaws on sneakers but then someone make a video with a legit pair that has the exact same flaws that you all just named. See that is why Nike sued Stock X and was going to sue GOAT because they came out saying that they guarantee 100% authenticity. Nike made a statement that even they cannot guarantee 100% authenticity of their sneakers. So if they can’t neither can eBay, Stadium Goods, Flight Club, GOAT, or none of y’all. If people were truly sneaker heads they would know better. Just by what you like and wear it. These dudes can teach you what they have seen other RUclipsrs do. They don’t have a clue of how to legit check sneakers. These videos are for views only.
Truth be told, you can experience the authentic one to wear out a lot quicker than the authentics trust me I'm telling you from experience I've been in the game for 31 years now
not many people can afford resell prices so I was devastated when I didn't hit for the mocha's on the snkrs app :/ but I'm also size 9 mens so It'd be cool if you would donate the reps to me 😳😳
If you cant afford real pairs you have no business buying a fake pair to deceive people into thinking theyre legit. I dont understand that rep way of thinking, its dumb really

I wear them in public daily. Lie I got a really high quality pair for $50 and I won't pay more. I'm going to wear a pair tonight at work tonight.
You paid 250 for reps?
I think you should leave the ethics out of buying replicas because it almost seems that your implying that nike is an ethical company.
I notice resellers tend to do that a lot like these big corporations don’t have sweat shops with little kids in them and overpricing shoes that cost at the most 20 bucks to make and selling them for over 200 bucks
Truthfully…I will continue to wear reps bc who really cares ? It’s about who is wearing the sneaker
Does anyone know a legit replica website, I've heard of Dhgate is it legit also??
How do they fake these so well and whats the easiest way to check if they are real or not? I feel like mine are real but would like to know for sure
Stitching on my recent Jordan 1s straight from Nike have been sh!t.
