First off, I love how CALM you are on your channel and delivery. It’s why I like you Thor 😊. Secondly you are 1000% justified with why you didn’t buy them. Your Prada/adidas ones are a lot more justified as a purchase for the price. I love old school saucony Jazz sneaks and the old school NB shoes, but $1k for cloth shoes, no
Thanks Julie 💕 some of my friends said I should do ASMR videos 😂 I think I'll honestly just get a regular pair of NB sneakers, the OG look for 1/10th of the price! 😂 ouh I've never heard of the Saucony Jazz Sneakers, i just googled them and I like them too 😍 they look very comfy
I'm a big fan of admiring from afar. There are SO many beautiful things I'd love to buy (but won't). Usually, they are things that aren't practical for my lifestyle or they are obnoxiously expensive 😆. I think you made the right choice, Thor! That is crazy money for a shoe made from those materials 😵💫.
I’m learning that too, admiring from afar 🥹 I think my biggest learning in relation to my wardrobe has been figuring out what I’ll actually wear instead of what my fantasy self would want to wear! Maybe if they go on sale I’ll see 🫣
I have been obsessed with the NBxMM beige sneakers for 6 months. I was telling myself just get the reg ones for 1/10 like you said but the color combo and distressed details made me swoon every time I see them. Long story short… I saw a pair on sale (new in box) (with a promo code) online at The Real Real. I added the sneakers plus another pre loved item so that I make the shipping worth it. They weren’t full price but paying 40% still hurts. BasicallyI now have buyers remorse after watching your video. I will see if I will still love them after trying them on for the first time. Eek.
Ouh let me know how they went, I still think of them from time to time but I know that I shouldn't get them at all ahaha but still it's nice to admire from afar 💛
I actually had this conversation with my husband a few weeks ago when I was trying on sneakers at Nike. I got the cutest pair of nikes for £40ish and I was SO impressed with them. They are so comfortable, really cute and a great price for a great pair of sneakers. It got me thinking... why did I used to be okay with spending so much on sneakers 😂 I get if they're made beautifully of great leather (like Ferragamo or Jimmy Choo) but for the same materials that sports brands use... it's not happening 🤐 great video Thor!! I love how your videos are getting me thinking about money more! In terms of collabs in general, I was over it the second I saw Supreme x Tiffany... so random 💀
omg right! I've been getting more into Nike, Adidas, New Balance, the more legit sneaker brands and I wear them WAY more than my designer ones, as they're way more comfortable 😂 and if it's not leather from a designer brand, tbh I'm not interested as the prices are outta control 🙅🏻 Thanks Jas, I am hoping its proving more value to people 💖 omg Supreme and Tiffany?! I also saw Supreme and Burberry collabed, but no one really talked about it ahaha everyone's already over it!
Just the look of these NB and miu miu shoes will make them timeless and classic. I am not into these high/ low collabs, but these I will be able to wear forever since NB alone are just a classic shoe. I hope you changed your mind and ended up getting them.
Great topic... For me, I need to buy the item, take it home,, and really investigate the item to decide if it will be worth it and something I will wear often. On this Miu Miu/NB collab, I have to agree. That sneaker is pricey for denim cloth. The only designer aesthetic about it are the distressed fringes unless there's something innovative with the materials. I'm pondering on my recent purchase of the AMcQ sneakers. I love the sneaker itself - silhouette, color and style. I'm just not fond of the "Seal" logo. I wish they designed the sneakers without branding like they did with the original AMcQ Oversize sneakers (that resembles the Adidas Stan Smith).
Thank you! Yeah I did think about purchasing them and trying them for myself, but decided against it as I know i'd probably return them and thought of the environmental cost of shipping them back and forth. 🌎 maybe if they were in like lambskin or something more luxurious than cotton, the price would be more understandable. I get that with your AMcQ sneakers, the logo is really in your face. I have the oversized ones with minimal branding and I like the more minimal look, have you worn them out yet?
@@anthorpology I haven't worn them. I don't understand why they decided to slap a logo on these. I'm trying to see if I can get beyond it. Anyway, maybe, if the NB/Miu Miu is a hit, they will come with more styles as they did with Prada/Adidas. Are there any other designer sneakers you're contemplating on?
@@dapperlygrungy3189 If you got them from Nordstrom, then you know what you can do ahaha I'm not sure if they will come out with more, there are still a few available on SSENSE but since they raised the price further idk... and honestly, no new collabs that are on my radar. I can't keep up with all of them 😂 any you're interested in?
@@anthorpology Yes, I did get them at Nordstrom....There's nothing so far that catches my attention....They raised the price on those NB/Miu Miu? Already!? They just got released..LOL.
Totally agree with you on this one, the price is not justified with what you're getting. I don't think the shoes would hold up that well anyway if you wanted to wear them. Honestly not super into designer collabs, there's very few that I actually like the branding/look of. I really want to try tracking what I wear in my wardrobe soon, that is such a good idea for mindful consumption/ money saving!
Thank you 💖 yeah the shoe itself isn't really worth it from a materials perspective, it's all coming from the name and the exclusivity of the product (altho there are still quite a few on SSENSE and they actually RAISED the price to $950 CAD 😂) I feel like designer collabs have sort of run their course, and people are kind of over them. I would totally recommend tracking your wardrobe, I found it in another RUclipsrs vibeo here: Christina Mychas' video and wardrobe tracker ruclips.net/video/8lH-uEeAJhU/видео.html
@@anushkasunshine yeah literally, the price before was a lot and the price after is even worse! Of course! Let me know how it goes and what you notice! I'll be doing a 3 month update video shortly, so I'll look for your input there 💖💖
Very interesting thoughts. I think i'll still buy them because i was looking for a model like this and they suit other pièces in my garde-robe. However, i understand you don't go for it if it's just for the hype...
First off boo I love how soothing your voice 🥰 now New Balance are comfortable but 900 oh hell Nawh cause bay bee that's wayyy to high lol 😂 hope you have a good weekend 😊
Omg thank you 🥰🥰 and they raised the price too 🤣 now they’re closer to $950 😂 hope you’re having a good weekend as well 🥰💕 Happy Easter if you celebrate 🐇
Yeah I think you were wise, I have the exact same new balance trainers, so to drop a grand on something basically the same would brings regrets I reckon … there will be other things that make your heart skip a beat and that you know are perfect… then you will be so glad you didn’t impulse buy the new balance miu mius ❤️
Omg and how do you find the NB shoes you have? I think I for sure made the right choice too, I’ll see if I can get a regular pair of NB 574, maybe in a more interesting colour way 💕
Right! Glad you got a pair tho, they are truly a collectors piece 🥹 I’ll look into those Gianni x NB sneakers, I also saw they did a collab with Casablanca which was interesting 🌸
Love love love these shoes and was very much considering a purchase. Thanks for doing this review! The “colonial beige” label is completely cringe. For many reasons, some similar to yours, I don’t think I need them. The price is too much.
Thank you for your input 💖💖💖 right, the name is a turn off lol, like colonial beige in 2022? now come on now! The price is just too much when the only thing they really have going for them in the limited edition aspect 🤷 maybe we should both just get regular NB and save our $$$ 💕
SAME! 😂 like these shoes are literally that, and the branding is so subtle, like they still have stock on SSENSE, so maybe if they go on sale I'll pick them up 🤣 it really does seem like everyone and anyone is doing a collab now just to make money. They're rarely inspiring anymore but just commerical
@@anthorpology yeah it’s such a shame… ones like Fendace are AMAZING but this is a joke, I think the sneakers look nice but when you said the price I couldn’t believe it!!!
Girrrrrlllll, just get the regular NB!!! stop having decision fatigue! This looks like it was tossed inside the wash and was left spinning for days….your prada is at least leather!…
$900 for a pair of sneakers?! Oh hell nawww 🙄 Toooo expensive. Any pair of sneakers over $150…. I will never understand. You’re right about collaboration being a trend. It will die down super fast. Glad you didn’t buy it!!
We always enjoy our stay 💅💕 omg the price of these is NOT worth it like this is nuts. At this point designers are taking the p*ss as my British friends would say 😂 don’t even get me started the Yeezy x balenciaga x Gap collab. I’ve never seen anything more boring!!!
I'm glad 💕 omg yeah I think at this point designers are just like what can we make that is sort of different but doesn't require too much effort, slap a logo on it then jack up the price and see if people will buy it, and they DO! omg the Gap x Yeezy x Balenciaga collab is too much LOL it all just looks like earth tone gap clothing, like I don't get how they're all together ahaha
