I'm not convinced your argument has ever made any sense at any point so far, regardless of how many times you repeat it. What you're saying is that authenticity is irrelevant - so long as you can have a cheaper facsimile you're satisfied, even if it damages the people who made the original who you've reduced to "evil corporations" through some apparent anecdotal evidence like some sort of conspiracy theorist. How pathetic.
What happened to people saving up for things they wanted? What happened to
real desire? I've been a member of Superfuture for going on four years now and have been a Raf / Rick / Etc... addict for perhaps just as long. It took me three years of saving andthrifting and re-selling to finally be able to start affording their pieces (even on eBay) like the Rick Sneakers / Jacket I bought just recently. I still can't afford a Rick leather - although if I start saving again I could in a year or two most likely. I could probably buy a Black Scissors jacket right now, but I'm not going to. Why? Because I have standards.
Which I thought was the entire point of this forum.
So dress yourself in Diesel Gold and Korean rip-offs. i hope you understand why the rest of us - maybe even those of us who think you "look good" - will never respect you for it.
