For $400-500, I think I'd rather just pay the extra for drkshdw sneakers. But I doubt any of us will even have the opportunity to buy them once the hypebeasters catch on.i traded my LUC jeans + Julius belt + Neil Barrett jeans for a blamain biker jeans

If these sneakers have the typical rick silhouette like the article says, I don't see how anyone will actually be able to run in them.“Man has somehow always feared this search, and I fear it even now. Suppose all man ever does is search for the reason, crosses oceans, sacrifices his life in the search; but to search it out, actually to find it, he’s afraid. For he senses that once he finds it, there will be nothing to search for.”

But here they quote Owens saying "What shoes am I going to wear running? I can’t wear my big chunky basketball shoes — I’d look like a dinosaur running through the Tuileries." which makes a lot more sense.“Man has somehow always feared this search, and I fear it even now. Suppose all man ever does is search for the reason, crosses oceans, sacrifices his life in the search; but to search it out, actually to find it, he’s afraid. For he senses that once he finds it, there will be nothing to search for.”

I agree, but I think that's another debate in itself. Isn't what the designer has in mind for the item most important? Sure, I wouldn't buy $500 running shoes, but if Rick says that's what he can see them being used for, isn't that how we should look at and interpret the item?“Man has somehow always feared this search, and I fear it even now. Suppose all man ever does is search for the reason, crosses oceans, sacrifices his life in the search; but to search it out, actually to find it, he’s afraid. For he senses that once he finds it, there will be nothing to search for.”
