It’s always okay to wear UAs, but don’t try to sell them like they are real
Agreed
Totally agreed.. sound crazy but I believe authorized and UA are pretty much the same shoe and I bet anything that if Nike grab a pair of UA sneakers and say here are your Jordans, people will die saying this are authentic
Exactly. That’s the issue. People passing them off as authentic and reselling them as such.
They’re real, the fact that Nike QA didn’t stamp
It doesn’t say it ain’t real . And the lady was not backdooring to her son. He violated the credit card spending permission she gave him. The word fake is all in the head and Nike knows it. Nike has already said they can’t even tell the difference. MK got the shoe game and shoe tubers in their feelings big time. It’s so much folks could be talking about and coming up with their own material for their channel but today it’s all copy cat culture. Now foot locker invested in resell. I told my cousin this was coming years ago and hear we are.
@@unboxedla6013 and I can guaranteed that more and more people will preferred UA’s when they get tired buying resale
Remember, at this point, nobody knows its a UA unless you tell them
Facts
As long as you don't lie about it or sell it as it is retail, then its more than ok to wear Reps...
Unless you bought a terrible pair that’s way off
@@poohshiesty5624 Just need to do small research to find good source....Also you can ask the seller for pictures for QC.
Yap unless they hold the shoe in their hand and do a legit check.that only thing is scary is when some reseller will sell them a retail pair
I only trust Geveroti
Botters/resellers ruin the sneaker game more than UAs because they’re exploiting our love for sneakers for money it kills the culture
Facts...
Yeah man it’s crazy
Brah they get mad I sell a shoe for 255 and the resell is 800 and they say mine fake it's crazy lol
Nicky Diamonds was FSR the other day and he said he was mad people were selling the OG tiffany dunk at like... 250 resell..
Agreed 💯
Take it from someone who has been working in the sneaker community for some years now. UA’s are made by the same companies that are making the real pairs. They are using the same shoe molds to make the fakes that they use to make the real. The only reason they’re called UA’s because they are using the real company’s shoe molds with out their authorization.
I figured because someone in their basement don’t have that type of technology and equipment just siting around n know how
Thank you maybe they'll read your comment slowly.
@@truthseeker5863 people literally make Jordans from scratch in their basements in America for RUclips videos. It doesn't take new technology to do, it only takes the technology to mass produce them
@@truthseeker5863 they have the technology nike don't own shit over there most of the time they'll over produce a shoe the qc person might strap those pair or tell them to burn or trash them and they sell them to resellers or people who own factories. Look at the Travis Scott fragment those pictures wasn't linked by nike every big factory in China has the final sample and materials.
Well said very well said 💯
I ain’t never seen this many “sneaker head “ you tubers talk about UA shoes in my life... MK the truth done changed the community lol
Bro I’m saying. MK be speaking real facts tho bro
@@Mrkiddballer15 once I seen “ hold or sell” or “ resell prediction” videos I knew the game was fucked up lol.. niggas can’t just buy shoes and be happy it gotta be a whole stock situation

MK the truth a god! Also pleaseeeeeeee sub to Trollmegedon!!!!
MK got the sneaker community on they toes..everybody talking bout UA now..lol
Agree 100%
Damn, u are right he brought it up first.
St8 that guy is the truth ......Salute Mk 💪🏾
Same thing I thought lol.
That man is the truth frfr
Real and UAs are the same damn sneakers. Both come from China. The Chinese are making extra money on the side by making more of the sneakers. That’s why Nike is trying to go after these UA resellers.
Realest comment award 🏆💯 that's exactly what it is
The hardworking shoemakers gotta eat too 💲
Truth
Thats why I'm like there is no real way to authenticate a shoe outside of have a order of confirmation email and order number or an in hand receipt.
The reason I say this because *There is no such thing as a perfect retail pair/pairs.* If a retail pair can come right from nike and it looks off something looking funny on it and Authenticator deems it fake because of it. *HOW IN THE HELL CAN YOU SEPARATE REAL FROM FAKE?*
@@PR3M3 big faxxxx
Salute to the shoemakers. Nike wrong for fueling this BS with limited drops and allowing bots to buy 100-300 pairs to resell.
It's UA's that look better then the Authentic pairs smh. At the end of the day, we need to stop showing loyalty to brands that doesn't show loyalty to us aka (the consumers). If I can't get a shoe I want retail then I'm getting them across the water myself.
Facts ! The UA'S 90% or higher close to retail.. im buying !!
Exactly
That's what I'm saying you hit on a retail pair get it and it has something really off on it. like the toe box doesn't match one shoe is taller then the other the color isn't a complete match between the two. Now your pair got "authenticator's" calling it fake because of it.

@@iharris3466 what are some good places to get Ua sneakers
Go watch MK the truth!!!!
at the end of the day when UA's are on foot aint nobody gunna be hitting them with a blacklight to see if their real or not
fr tho 😭😭
Right
Just don’t go to the club in them 🤣
Even then most UA don’t even have any marks or stitching issues visible under black light 🥴 most of the time u can only tell from the under insole stitching and ain’t nobody finna ask you to remove the insole
some UA Passed the black light test lmaoo
I can care less what individuals do with their money, wear what you like, and buy what you like. Just don't tryna put a front and scamming someone. That's all
Facts I’m with you bro
Respect sir. Regardless of how anyone feels about retail vs UA. At the end of the day, they are just shoes. A lot of people talk about pocket watching, but quick to call someone broke for not wanting to pay resell. You, and others with platforms have a lot of influence. It's dope to see you tell the truth, that's it's some people's preference. That's an important lesson for the younger generation that is more easily influenced by what you and other RUclipsrs have to say. At the end if the day, it ain't my business what you wear, how much you spent or where you shop. I do not care about what the next man has or wears. I'm too busy looking at women. Life is too short and I spend more time living my life. It would do good for a lot of other people out here. We not in high school. Mind your business and keep it pushing.
W comment life is way too short to waste ur time telling sum1 "to get their money up" when the person sayin that shit is staying broke
Had UA version of these University Blues for 2 months now. It's not 2005 anymore. UA is THE SAME SH$T! No one can tell the difference on foot. Heck, most can't tell the difference if they had both versions in hand. If nike doesn't want my money, guess who does... At the end of the day, I will rock the shoes that I want one way or the other. Oh, and go check out my review on my pair.
I agree. All the shoes are hand made with the assistant of machine. If you take two retail pair and compare them. They will be slightly different.

@@la-tronholston3847 depends on who you buy from.
The other problem with resell is that some of the “resellers” got their shoes across the waters and they sold it for resell price and now theres people rocking fakes that think they’re real and even paid resale for it, sad man
Sad things is they're the same thing so that's kind of irrelevant
@@felixuchies4688exactly same famn factorys in china makin em lol
So basically y’all buying UA. Everything is from across the water tho.
Exactly how i feel. If they're made from the same places either all of them are real or all of them are fake. Ibuprofen is ibuprofen regardless if it the store brand or the advil brand
I've seen UA's that were made better than the retail pairs and that's just cold hard facts. Anybody that is worried about what another grown man has on his feet has some serious issues he's dealing with.
Bro facts I got a pair of Dead stock mochas for free that are UA’s and they are made better then an actual retail pair imo
What site ?
I rock my UA's in the mall walking the foot locker get compliments by the people who work at foot locker. And my bank account is not hurt by my sneaker purchase. Also I get to where the sneakers that I want to wear and not be afraid of fucking them up.
Cop for retail or move onto the next release. Not giving any of these resellers any bread. No shoe is worth paying resell.
Man I respect you so much, just the way you talk about this subject with absolutely no disrespect to any side.

He said “ it’s a preference “ like 1000 times 😂
I worked for Timberland in Dom. Rep for my first job at around 16. In that era there was also Nike & Rebook in the same spot putting together "Authentic" and Unauthorized sneakers. Keep in mind, we did the same shit at Timberland. During the day all the "authentic" stuff shipped out the proper way and 3rd shift handled all the shit that went out the back door... So many of you would be butt hurt to know that you all rocking the same shit! Not all places do the same, there are spots that do use different materials and its easy to tag as fake... I am 40 now, Nike & Reebok are no longer on the island but Timberland continues to feed us a bit of both real and unauthorized Tims.
I have been lucky enough to catch at retail everything I have wanted. Would I rock Unauthorized? Hell yes! Truth be told at the end of the day both Sneakers regardless they are "Authentic" or Unauthorized. They all come out the factory at tops a $15 to $20 sneaker. 24 years later it was even cheaper what Nike was paying the factories for a finished product. Importation fees and Nike selling to retailers may bring the kicks up to $35 to $50 depending on the kick and then they throw their suggested retail on them...
Damn bruh first time watching one of you're vids but you a real one!
the thing that makes people question wearing/buying UA’s is bc just 3 years back everyone thought they were legit checkers and would call everyone who would buy fakes out

@@dallen7548 what’s a good ua site
@@Ksndfg I mean if need to know some I can tell you a few.
Honestly I couldn't care less if someone wore fakes - it's their money, they can do whatever they want with it.
“Is it okay to wear UA sneakers?” Let me save people time watching this video and say “Yes. Wear whatever the fuck you want and whatever makes you feel good.”
So basically “real” vs “fake” isn’t about retail vs unauthorized because retail and unauthorized have the same materials minus some quality control. I don’t understand why people make it more complex than this other than they don’t want to diminish the resell market value of retail when unauthorized are the same fucking shoes minus the fact that they GO THROUGH Footaction Footlocker and all these other retail QCs. Right?
cause there’s no exist “unauthorized” those are just fakes with BETTER QUALITY
@@keos472 then it’s smarter to get the fakes and save money. It’s the same shit. “FAKES” are just the same thing but NOT sold at footlocker. FAKES would be the same LOOKING shoes but made totally different with different materials and possible made in a different place, like Detroit or New Jersey, maybe Appalachia. I’d rather get a ua pair than lay 1,300 for a pair of off white sneakers that aren’t even premium materials and comfort. And trust, I’ve paid for resell just to get a real pair and they’re no different from a good ua seller’s pair and it’s stupid that we get into real bad fake when there are pairs that aren’t sold retail (Unauthorized) that are the same. Y’all have fun paying resell and using tech to get bum ass sneakers that will just end up crumbling or wearing down tho lol I’m never paying resell again. It’s mad.
I’m personally not paying $500 or buying UA. I’m just gone move on. N a dream sneaker world, all youtubers should get there following to stop buying Jordan’s then Nike would listen to us.Man thats 100’s of thousands of people but I know that’s not going to happen. #strikenike. Lol
I agree if I want a sneaker I just put my ticket in if I hit cool if I don’t oh well idc
@@Haloking1212 hell yea bro. It hurts for a Lil min then I get over it. I’m to cheap to pay high resell but hopefully this sneaker bubble will pop
I totally agree... I just stick to Fila $65 - 80 or Puma $120 or less.
I'm a watch guy, and can't justify wearing a fake. But some of these sneakers that are going to get dirty and are supposed to be worn, I don't get the big deal with wearing a "ua" shoe.
y’all cats could flex about paying full price on resale to show off to ppl who don’t care, not me. I have bills & ppl to attend to, feel me others can do them, but couldn’t be me. UA’s baby 🔥
Yeah, but the problem is people flexing fake shit is what I can't stand

Agreed. I have kids. I got my son some UA's he said he got so many compliments. My kids are way too rough on shoes to be spending hundreds on one pair.
Where can I get UA shoes?? I’m kinda nervous to buy one some sites.
At the end of the day shoes are meant to be worn on you’re feet no matter where they come from or brand. Authentic or UA. Just don’t try to pass them off as real and sell them.
When I hit on pairs I’ll rather sell them and just buy a UA pair because it’s the same thing but I couldn’t sell them as reals

How and where do you buy UA sneakers
@@spiderj85 look up repsneakers reddit. Or follow pkpk2008 on IG
I got homeboys who wear UAs and I don't think there is anything wrong. Something I don't like is that since people wear UAs others think they're broke N can't afford the real ones. In reality they can afford the real ones but just use that amount of money to something with my value.
Right! I’m married with a 2yr old and a sizable mortgage.
My days of spending $200 - $300 on shoes are over!
With pre-k, swimming lessons, and etc. on the horizon, UAs seem like a good option.
I am definitely exploring this UA world.
Especially at this stage of being 38 in this life.
The places I go, ain’t nobody gonna approach me on some authentication bs.
I buy UA / Rep shoes bc I’m just not willing to spend $300 to more than a thousand dollars for a pair of shoe. The problem is I like a shoe but I can’t get so I find a different option to get em which is the UA route. Imo the feel same and look same so I’m happy. If somebody calls me out I’mma tell them they’re UAs. What the gon do about it?
Exactly. Nike already made their money. No sense giving some loser with a bot a pay day as well.
when you say preference, you are assuming people who wear U.A's prefer to wear U.As and that sir is not the case... of course people would prefer to wear the retail shoe but some people love a specific shoe so much and because of bots/backdoors and ppl who have connects (i.e trophy rooms) ppl don't have a chance, they're are some ppl who haven't hit on snkers in over a year... you saying to just move on as if people don't move on already, how many times are people suppose to move to the next L?? so instead of taking L after L they go to china and buy U.As so they can wear them, these U.As are getting so good that you can't even tell they difference most times.. so NO people don't prefer to wear U.A's its just that the sneaker game has become a resell business that real sneaker heads who actually wear their kicks are left with no choice...
THANK YOU
I love how humble this video was
When it comes to sports shoes I always wear UAs and OEMs or even Class A and I don’t even feel a slight embarrassment in public. Even if I’m filthy rich I’d never pay $300 for a freaking pair of Jordans. There are more important things out there than a classy shoe.
I wear UA’s and when people ask me if they are real I straight up tell them “no, they are UA’s” and when they ask me why I wear UA’s I tell em “because I want my outfit to look good and I’m not dumb enough to pay 500-1700 for a pair of kicks”.
The way I see it, if you collect sneakers go for it, pay the money for the legit ones and most respect to you buy if you want to just have a drippy outfit and look good go for the UA’s, just don’t be that guy that tells people they are wearing the real deal.
You unknowlingly bought a pair of UA's.
Hell yea !! Them mochas
You made me sub in just a few minutes. You're super knowledgeable. I admire you for that.
UA IS THE NEW WAVE 🔥🔥🔥
where do u cop?
@Firekitz i was mad at first but sifting through the comments I’m not as mad about copping reps
Where’s y’all the finding the UA’s? What’s a trustworthy website
Honestly UAs are the same as the retailed ones. Mk the truth reviews and wears ua an they are the exact same. He recently did two videos and cut them up to see if it’s real materials used or if they have technology in them. They had the same material it better because it’s real leather and and use the same air units in the Jordan 1s. That’s kinda sad if the ua has better material then some retail. Not to mention that some retail has a lot of flaws. I mean look at the Jordan carmine 6s. The after market prices for shoes is crazy and some people don’t even wear them
Carmine 6’s from NIKE.......FLAWS OUT THE ASS! UA carmines........FLAWLESS. But people will take the flawed ones because Nike sent them, but Nike just a middle man. People just go off name brands and hype. Weird mentality but that’s all it is

I respect your stance on it bro. My issue with UA sneakers is there are people out there that will attempt to sell them as authentic and have been successful in doing so. We've heard of those stories about people buying from Goat or StockX then get disappointed when they realize they were sold a fake. I've even seen resell shops just glance at a shoe and accept it. Without diligently evaluating the sneaker. There are sneakers I'm willing to spend the extra bread on but don't because I can't trust it's not UA. Like you said if I don't hit at retail it's on to the next one.
Just buy a rep and enjoy life fam , it’s not that serious

@@baonguyen3484 hey I respect that all day long , but if for some crazy reason vans start getting bot’ed up And put on stock X for $200+ then yea I’m definitely buying a rep van lol 😆
I don’t flex fakes or nothing but if someone asks if they real I just say yeah and move along. Nobody knows the difference so there’s no point in paying the extra 900 dollars for a pair
I’ll be lying if I said I haven’t thought about buying fakes but I ultimately wouldn’t because of the feeling of knowing they’re not authentic. But I agree with you.
Facts I would cop but the feeling of it not being the real deal
It's all in your head.. If the fake sneakers that you guys think uses the same material, same build quality (it got way better now than say 2-3 years ago), and most of the time smells the same, then give those please.
Someome said "he would never wear fake sneaker because he feels like it's morally incorrect", well if you bought a sneaker from a plug before the release date, aren't those supposed to be unauthorized because manufacturers such as Nike, Adidas, etc didn't give consent to sell those before the release date which makes it morally incorrect as well... Which means RUclipsrs who buys their pair (non-early access) from a plug supports stolen goods... 🤔
For me reps are more than ok to wear as long as no materials are switched and with good quality. In the end of the day, no one will legit check your shoes when you're wearing them... If I don't hit on retail, I go option B instead of giving my money to scalpers/resellers... ✌
It is authentic. It's all an illusion
Also a waste of money, you can’t resell them. Or Atleast you shouldn’t.
@@a11andiazzz it's cheap already. By the time you kill the shoes, you should more than enough $$$ to get a new one... The point of having a rep shoe is so that you won't feel bad wearing it almost carelessly and not looking like a penguine when you walk in it... 🤣😂
U right, it is about preference. U either are willing to pay the bread for retail or u pay the bread to get them for resale. Or u either go the ua route. But whatever way u decide to go, it's strictly about preference. My preference has always been to buy authentic sneakers.
You just made me sub bruh, loved the way how you were spitting facts, straight up genuine, now I might not be a day 1, but best believe ima be active in this channel.
Keep it up 💙🤟🏽
UA sneakers are best for non-resellers or non-sneaker investors cuz they aren’t Authentic.While Authentic sneakers are best for resellers and sneaker Heads. There is a reason a sneaker is sold at a certain price point. I think both people have a right to wear what they want and not get judged cuz pockets are different and tastes too.
Always consider,Durability,Material,and “Reality checks” with your Hommie’s😂 which is a last factor to consider.
Watch your budget to avoid Dripping on debt⚡️

Sniper to be honest you can feel however you want to just like I can about the issue when your getting hard to get sneakers from brands like Hibbett for free when Hibbett keeps giving out L on there app when they could have just gave people a chance to get the shoe they gave to you RUclipsrs for free.
Yea Snipe is plugged in we the one taking Ls. Of course he not wear UA he plugged in for free

you do you man... But just letting you know, the more we support resellers/scalpers, nothing will change...
For me, i rather look the alternative way if I really want a certain shoe than giving extra $$$ to resellers... rather keep the extra money or spend it to my kid and family.. 😉
I prefer retail... but going that route is more or less impossible... so if it's something I want & I can't go the retail route I'm going over water🤷🏿
Everybody is entitled to do what they like with their bread
Just don’t sell reps as a retail pair and it’s all to the good 💯
That's all that matters. Don't try to resell the UA's and it's all good in the hood.
Facts
I sell unauthorized shoes as real all the time and the ppl that bought them from me couldn’t even tell anyways. If they didn’t check the shoe to see if it’s real or not, then it’s their fault. I don’t care how anybody feels, if I need my money I’mma get it! I’m a hustler, so that’s what I do.
Nothing wrong with a good pair of replicas, unless you’re trying to sell them like the real deal and scam someone
I sold my UAs, it’s hard to tell if they are authentic or not because they are top quality and I sell them for good prices. I don’t tell them they are UAs because if I do then I wouldn’t be able to sell them. It’s part of the hustle and the grind. trying to make money to get by and survive. I Know it’s not right but I needed the money so as long as I got it, I can care less. 🤷🏾♂️
Late comment. I am Indonesian. As you know adidas , nike, gap, etc make their some products in here. Those brands make lot of money, while they paid very cheap to factories, and labours are struggling with money.
So it's not really wrong if labours make extra pcs of those brands' products to make more money.
They made by same people, anyway.
Well said brah. I was just talkin with the wife about this, I feel like I can walk away from shoes I couldn’t cop, I haven’t done UAs but if there’s a color way I really want, and I’m not talkin about getting Yeezys or highly priced shoes. Regular ol dunks, Jay 1s is all I’m looking for, and again if I can’t cop, walking away is easy.
💢SHNNNIIIIPEEEEE SQUAAAD💢
BACK AGAIN!!!!! I’m really appreciating these topics lately, thanks for letting us have these conversations with you 🙏🏿 If I can’t hit for retail or from a legit seller with the RIGHT price, I ain’t even gonna stress. I’ve only bought 1 shoe for resale but at this current time, you either have a bot, paying resale or out here buying UAs. Personally I’ll just take my L and move on, but I can’t hate on someone for doing what they want with they money.
if i’m being logical and i want a Jordan 1 TS, I ain’t spending $2,000 on a shoe that’s worth $175, even if i got the $2,000. It just ain’t right, you could buy a whole ass car for $2,000.
great video
much love bro 👏🏽
The definition of unauthorized is not having official permission or approval.
By definition any shoe sold that does have official permission or approval by the manufacturer is UNAUTHORIZED
And UA’s have better quality and less flaws then the “The Real” if we keeping it a buck
Speak on it! 🗣💯 I knew I wasn’t the only one who thought this too.
I have off white 5s real retail pairs from SNKRS and UA’s look better 😂
@@MrRaheemfrank Lmao! 😂 That is wild lol. I’m with that though bruh because all this resale nonsense and Nike QC being trash lately, UA is definitely the move.
@@KQGMAN I don’t have any UA’s but I’m with you about hit up one of Mk plugs 😂 them ROI ones looking nice
@@MrRaheemfrank I definitely will man! Somebody on reddit told me the same thing yesterday when I asked about where MK gets his UA’s from. His IG is the plug fr. I’m going to get some Jordan 1 Chicago UA since I missed out on them back in 2015 and I’m definitely not paying $1000+ for resale lmao! 😂
A lot of UAs I’ve seen either have a better shape or look cleaner and feel better than their counterparts. Wear what you like - just don’t sell it as authentic.
I don't see anything wrong with someone wearing UA's. Like MK said at the end of the day it's all about preference. The only problem I have is when someone tries to sell them as real.
I sell unauthorized shoes as real all the time and the ppl that bought them from me couldn’t even tell anyways. If they didn’t check the shoe to see if it’s real or not, then it’s their fault. I don’t care how anybody feels, if I need my money I’mma get it! I’m a hustler, so that’s what I do.
@@tjs-_goated7449 don’t you think it’s wrong that someone wants to buy an authentic pair and you knowing that they’re fake continue to sell. That’s what I find wrong with it. I wouldn’t mind buying UAs knowing they’re UA but don’t charge a person authentic pairs for UA.
@@arkhamshinobi6197Yeah I know it’s wrong but I still got the money so I can care less.
Finna start a rep collection fuck it they still shoes at the end of the day & $1000 for some dunks is Ridiculous that’s most people rent 😭😂
Not going to say you don't buy UA on purpose but like MK says all these RUclips shoe people own some whether they know it or not. They don't know if they shoes came from retail unless they actually picked It up at the warehouse straight of the conveyer belt.
And those early release reviews yall do, all of them ain't real.
Mk got yall scared out here. He about to put yall out of business lol.
That being said still enjoy your videos and breaks to but yall praise retail a little too much.
Everyone has their own opinion and it should be respected. I appreciated your perspective on this hot 🔥 UA vs Authentic topic. It all comes down to personal preference. My son loves both.........his ideal scenario is to own an Authentic (if he is lucky enough to get/afford a pair)..........but buy a UA to wear when he is just handing with his friends. The stories he has about himself and friends with rare authentic getting damaged/scared the first time they wore them out is truly epic. He likes knowing he actually has a authentic in his collection, but can wear and not worry when he is wearing his UA to hang with his friends.
Wendy is going to be very busy next week, DHL 🚚 all over the hood in about a month n is totally ok if u ware them not sellthem
😂😂😂
Resale is killing the culture. Shoes costing 10X more than retail is what's causing people to go reps
I remember when UAs were terrible too, i had the Invisible Bapes 😂😂😂
Can't you hear yourself? "Terrible UAs" ? If UA is the same thing as authorized then why are they terrible? Because UA is a marketing term used by sellers. UA doesn't exist just use the word Replica that's better
You know it’s really unfair because some ppl live in areas that have sneaker stores or where the sneaker culture is apparent. It can be easier for those ppl to get sneakers they want for retail or close too retail. I have never hit on the SNKRS app before and live in an area that has no sneaker culture or stores. I’m tired of paying resell so UAs are definitely sounding nice.
Man why everyone praising MK?... Y'all forgot about Rupa?... "There's options out chea!"
MK making good vids... But Rupa been on that UA game for a minute.
You're right. Rupa got knocked that's why
Facts, I forgot about him. Watched a video where he explained the whole situation. Was crazy
Rupa got me into the UA game... i met homie hes as real as he is on the videos
The question is not UA or retail. The question is UA or Resell. And the answer is always UA>Resell. If the retailer don’t do enough to combat resell then in my book UA>Retail too.
What’s the safest website to buy UA from? Because I can’t afford resell
Hi friend, you can DM @homecopparis on IG, i have order best 1:1
280 for AJ1. Best quality. IG- sneakerhtxplug
@plugged.inn99
Your money you can do Watever you want. Truth is if one doesn’t have a problem with rocking UA’s that’s all good. Just don’t go out and reselling them and saying they are legit while trying to make profit. UA’s are shoes that big companies didn’t pass QC. Realistically every shoe is a UA until that shoe passes QC then it is considered legit.
Wow. So I’m convinced, people are wearing the UA ones and are selling the real ones for resale. That actually makes a whole lot of sense
Me and my friends do that lol
my only problem with UA's is i don't know which websites will scam me
Look up the website on youtube before you buy
Honestly the only difference is that Nike approved there shoes and the others are not approved... that’s the difference can’t blame the factories for making there shoes and getting paid pennies on the dollar.... resellers and holder’s drive the price up as we do as well but holding shoes seeing if travis will wear them or Kylie.... this is what we have come to vs just enjoying our kicks Nike back doors shoes as well all shops real and fake raffles go on footlocker cancels your reservation. The list can go on and on but we support it we say let’s pay resell or trade our 10 dollar shoes because that’s what it cost or less 15 for off whites that. Resell for hundreds and thousands. All we can do is blame our selfs because we Let it happen. Just like MK the truth said we let this shot happen and it’s not going to stop even with Ann Herbert Nike is to powerful. The UA business is to big as well the resell business is to massive.... yes we all miss walking into footlocker buying our kicks or them telling us another shipment will be here on Thursday come back. We got you
This guy makes the world better he’s not racist he takes everybody’s opinion into consideration he respects everybody I like this guy
After watching the video I 100% agree. end of the day it's your bread your spending, they're your shoes to wear and who tf really cares what anyone thinks as long as you happy. I mean unless you're rocking some payless specials and trying to pass them as diors that's a different story
My point exactly bro
