Nah fam, I bought a pair of guccis in 2011 for 535, I still wear them today, but they look better than any jordan I've worn for 10 months, and I've worn them for 10x that. It's really not close when it comes to quality and longevity. Jordans are nostalgic but high end designers are another level. Jordans are sneakers, every sneaker gets beat. Designers are real shoes and the Guccis I have, I feel like they are going to last another 10 years. A shoe that lasts 20 yrs is crazy. The leather refuses to wear out and the midsole just won't crumble.
@@stevie2fuagree I have some Gucci sneakers that are years old and still look as the first day I got them. One thing I must say the material used on the soles designer shoes are very durable. It takes a very long time to show any signs of heal drag.
I agree with buckets, if I want to wear sneakers I prefer to stick with the classics. If i want to elevate my footwear i’d prefer to do a dress shoe or a loafer, etc
You can get hand sewn and stitched leather boots that last for less , for crying out loud, Crown North Hampton is king , you can get the whole kit and kabutle for 800, even with the shell cordovan
Buckets saying "who cares about quality?" is VERY IRRESPONSIBLE, and that's part of the reason why they try to sell us trash stuff because they think we don't care about quality but actually, quality should be the number one or number two reason why we buy something.. anything, from cars, to food, to absolutely everything.
@@rahimi4762bruh 1k for these? U can get good boots and better dress shoes for cheaper and expect a much more better material and craftmanship than that sh!!
@rahimi4762 1k for those? You fed them good bro. You can expect far more excellent quality material and craftmanship on boots or dress shoes for even half the price
@@rahimi4762 Didn't say they don't factor in. Just said design is more important. You can have amazing quality, materials and craftsmanship but if it's on a Jordan 19 I'm still not interested. There could a sloppy pair of 3's or 4's in a good colorway and I'd happily wear them.
The age old discussion of the worth of designer fashion is so overstated. Everyone should know these are a status symbol period. Its ok if you prefer to spend money on nike or gucci. I could clown ppl for paying 1000 for travis or 220 for jordan 3s that both cost 3 dollars to make
Can’t believe you didn’t go for those Burgundy Kicks. - Burgundy Boyz - Gang,Gang,Gang. I could hear the regret in your voice when you talked about the bags!
Never seen a designer sneaker that I like or that doesn’t look like a Walmart/Payless shoe. And on top of that they cost thousands…😮 At least Jordan’s have a history or story behind them that helps elevate the design and “justify” some of the prices.
What's wild is how almost every pair of sneakers looks like some shit I would be like "ugh, these are so lame" when I was shopping for my yearly pair of shoes as a kid at payless or dsw
Designer sneakers are like Designer watches. Style over technology/function leave the sneakers to sneakers companies and leave watches to watch companies. Let Designer companies make their clothes or bags, that's what they do well.
I owned a pair of Gucci and I gotta tell you. In person the materials are a lot better and they may last longer looking good than other brands. I like the style and I mean Gucci will be timeless! So I’ll give it a 9 out of 10. I like them!
Foolishness. I have at least 15 pair of Gucci sneakers. My weakest pair of Gucci’s is absolutely killing my best pair of J’s. I own Cap and Gown 11s, Mocha 1s, white OVO 10s, Space Jam 11s, Black Metallic 5s, A Ma Maniere 4s, Cool Grey 4s and even the cream J Balvin 3s just for context. Nobody is hooping in any of the Jordans I just mentioned, so that argument is dead. The materials used are simply no contest. You won’t be complaining about glue stains and blemishes on a pair of Gucci’s. You also won’t have to worry about your sneakers crumbling if you decide to put them up for some years. Craftsmanship on Gucci’s is unmatched. Ultimately, you get what you pay for. Great purchase Mr. F.S.🔥
I’ve had my eyes on a couple pairs of Prada Americas Cup sneakers for a while now, those and some Dior trainers may be my only high end sneaker purchases
Without stripe looks like one you could pick up at H&M. The only one I’ve been able to rock with is the Gucci Amari skel top. They are probably just as uncomfortable, but they do look dope
I hated designer sneakers until I got a couple pairs the quality is unmatched to say they are worse versions of Nikes and adidas it’s not even close. You can wear Gucci sneakers 100 days in a row and water will wash away the dirt and they’ll look and feel brand new. No bottom out no factory issues you most definitely will get your moneys worth and more from a pair of designer sneakers.
If you think about how much the logic of sneakers is inverted in the luxury market compared to the watch market, for example traditional watch manufacturers are much more valued than luxury brands that use another manufacturer of the machine themselves and just put their logo There, I really think that this logic should also apply to sneakers in general 
For the money spent, you expect the best materials on luxury designer shoes. If it wasn't designed made, I would think of them as Payless or some upscale Allbirds shoe. This gets a rating of '2' because of the name alone.
I own a pair of Louis V sneakers and I got to say, bucket is so dead on it. The LV I have is heavy as well. Definitely a good quality but very uncomfortable. They are good for the” athleisure”look. But that’s about it.
That brown Gucci monogram is fire and pretty much as subtle as they get, I think you dropped the dust bag so to speak by getting the ones you got instead of the same ones with the monogram on them. Paying $1200 and not getting that Gucci print on the leather just doesn’t add up in my mathematically inclined mind, Buckets did I use that in the right context? Should I have just said my mathematical mind, my calculating mind, my Chinese abacus mind even though I’m white like Barry?
I have Saint Laurent Cure 05 sneakers that I got on sale from the Saint Laurent outlet and retail was 1400 and they are actually very nice and high quality probably still not worth 1400 but those are designer shoes that actually look a feel like it, these not so much.
If u didn't know they were Gucci you would think they cost 20 bucks at Dicks Sporting Goods
Pure trash
Nah if the material is good, probably worth around 100 bucks

Buckets was dead on 😅😂
I agree!! 🤮
😩😩😩
Soooo true!!
@@mrfoamersimpson i think they're dope man. closest to the 84's i've seen...pricey tho!
I agree with buckets, if I want to wear sneakers I prefer to stick with the classics. If i want to elevate my footwear i’d prefer to do a dress shoe or a loafer, etc
Need more Buckets rants like this at the end, really enjoyed the vid. Be interesting to see an LV trainer review
Yeah the LV’s look dope!
LV trainers are actually comfy
I prefer the LV any day over things also 🤷🏽♂️
Naa I 100% agree with buckets these ain’t it!
Tbh designer sneakers are like Hublot watches to me
Big trash😂

Buckets is a Legend 🫡😂
If Avia made a $1100 dollar shoe…
"They Stink!" LMAO geezus Buckets the Blonde Bomber over here!
Buckets is funny as hell… Let him cook 😂😂
Some doors are just not to be opened
These are some expensive Adidas bowling shoes
U are right lmao
Those look like some say less Payless kicks
Buckets was 💯on point with everything!
Buckets, yes!! Loved it. Your dry humor/subtle comedy is, as you fellas say…🤌🏼muta bella
Appreciate the switch up
2:14 I’m almost always agree with Buckets. These are a ZERO for me, if I wanted be respectful a 3.
One of my fave sneaker RUclipsrs!
Buckets is spot on
Buckets 💯 spot-on with that assessment 😂
Payless design with a Gucci logo. Design is way more important than materials and brand.
insane statement lol
No it’s not. This is crazy. Quality, materials and craftsmanship factor in

Agree with buckets on these, they’re ass 😅. Liked his well articulated rant too 😂
Buckets is spot on here!
Despite Young Buckets being completely swaggerless, he’s right about the Triple S’s

Nahhh that gucci print is fire
Buckets spot on! Haha 😆 Y’all earned the like for this vid, great one fellas 🤘🏼
A refreshing mixup 👏🏻
Foamie as a fellow Yankee fan that hat is CRISPY mane 🔥🔥🔥
It looks like G Unit G6 😂😂😂😂😂

The Gucci Monarch 🤣
You guys should do a review of some of the Represent sneakers!
Burgundy pair way more lit fam never seen these before Ty for this video
Dope vid 🔥 these are clean. Probably like the LV trainer more
I'm with Buckets!
like the Rock T shirt for and the NY New Era burgundy joint 🔥 sneakers not bad, not bad

Damn, I really want to hear the rest of what Buckets had to say! 😂 But, for that price tag they need to be 11 out of 10 on all scales.
I owned a pair of Gucci and I gotta tell you. In person the materials are a lot better and they may last longer looking good than other brands. I like the style and I mean Gucci will be timeless! So I’ll give it a 9 out of 10. I like them!
Looks like a shoe my 70 year old dad would wear
O’ No, No, No!!!! They just have an Kmart look, with the Blue light flashing..!

Buckets esquires is on the money ❤
My goodness Buckets 😂😂😂
Salutes, they remind me of a pair of old school British Knights sneakers.
These remind me of British Knights 🔥
If @buckets were to be my college instructor…half of my class will fail 😅😂😂😂
Damn! Your grading system is something else….
Dang Buckets! Tell us how you really feel LOL!!! He straight up 💩on the Goochies!!!!
$1,150 for shoes is nuts
Hate designer shoes....but those are 🔥
This is the earliest I've ever been to a Foamer Simpson video! Hello!
I’ve had my eyes on a couple pairs of Prada Americas Cup sneakers for a while now, those and some Dior trainers may be my only high end sneaker purchases
Those look like the S . Carters 😂 which looked like a pair of old gucci kicks from the 80s ..
Without stripe looks like one you could pick up at H&M. The only one I’ve been able to rock with is the Gucci Amari skel top. They are probably just as uncomfortable, but they do look dope
I'm with Buckets on this one
Remind of the Jay Z S.Carter Reebok collab sneaker back in the day
REEBOK GOT THE STYLE FROM GUCCI
I recently bought Dior x stone island b30. There’s cool because they’re individually numbered with 400 of each color world wide.
I just picked up the Prada Downtown sneakers. I love them. They are similiar to those Gucci's
1 out of 10 sir
Ronnie Fieg Clarks sambas, same kinda look but a tad cleaner & I'm guessing way more comfortable 😂
Those look like some pro wings
I don’t hate em and you can lace swap these black, red, or green. I’m never paying a comma for shoes but I appreciate the review.
Buckets for president 2025
Clean 🔥🔥🔥
The Black pair with the muted Gucci print is calling my wallet.
Perfect shoe to pick up the friggin gabagool
I have a pair made by Zespa. Awesome quality and comfort but took like 8 wears to break in.
Lookin' like a pair of FIFAS

Straight azzzz. The shoes, not the homey Foam
Nah facts the louis vuitton trainers look way better honestly
I'm with Buckets. Charging that much for a shoe that basic is crazy. And yup....the Balenciagas are even worse.
Pretty sure these are at Burlington/Ross/Marshalls
the adidas zx 8000 and the new balance 550 had a very over priced baby

I dig them and yea, have many designers. About 20% of my collection is designer
Theyre ok but make me feel like id be going full sopranos in these lol.

what size shirt is buckets wearing of the rock shirt?
XL
With Buckets on this one.
What’s Guccis return policy chief 😅
😂😂😂
I wouldn't pay over 150 for these sneakers. But maybe in the 80's I'd buy them. I remember having a similar sneaker in '89. But not for that price. ❤

Review the Nigel Sylvester Jordan 4 RMs
Adidas definitely not happy with those 3 stripes on the side
I get that these are gucci (I owe a 2013 pair) but these are pretty normal. Def not worth 1200 dollars.
Trust me, I love Gucci shoes, i have 7 pairs, but these are ugly.
I have Saint Laurent Cure 05 sneakers that I got on sale from the Saint Laurent outlet and retail was 1400 and they are actually very nice and high quality probably still not worth 1400 but those are designer shoes that actually look a feel like it, these not so much.
And the black pair looks nica
You should just have bought the Gucci Gazelle collab
Buckets is right
Complete waste of money. 🤢🤮👎🏻
The one that gets me is that most people who knock Designers are Collab Zombies.....
Those are payless shoes all day long
In organic Aloe Vera 😂
