      I mean what's WTF about it, it's a simple informative review that's easier to digest than a thread of cunty SZ denizens and fabric codes and not a single person in the comments said anything except it being useful.

      Fashion isn't finance capital, it doesn't need to be obscured to be "successful."

          that's not a cheeky smile, the code for that smiley is literally "huh".

          i suppose i just wonder what the point of such things is, comes across as narcissistic and self serving / promotional [for the creator].

          but perhaps i just presume a certain level of self-assuredness in taste & purchasing decisions among our niche.

          personally, i cannot possibly imagine why someone would seek such a video out.

          but, if people find them useful, then great - enjoy!

          i'll retreat to my cave and keep quiet. [promise]

            Well, there we go. I don't feel one way or the other about the video. I'm not sure it's as much narcissism that motivates this as much as it is educational. I'd like to assume this was made with the latter motivator in mind.

              I will assume as much as well, and stop belittling and/or questioning others' efforts at community building.

                Whats wrong with that? I though that was quiet informative for the uninitiated.
                This to me is basically what is wrong with everything here today. Everybody is a self proclaimed expert after 1-2 footwear purchases.

                    Yeah, there's a bunch of random incorrect information in it.

                      This is definitely how I feel, I'm just making an effort to be less of a cunt I suppose.

                        I didn't watch the full video, but having a video of the boot "in motion" shows you way more about the piece than all the photos available online combined. It's great from a democratizing perspective since it's very hard to see CCP in person unless you buy it / already know people who own it. I have slight qualms about this democratizing if it leads to those kids who hoard sneakers and make youtube videos to start moving to SZ footwear, but that's probably improbable / harmless...

                              I didn't know it would take an "expert" to give an introduction to CCP boots, even less so on how to tell a fake/real, etc.

                                You probably are a big fan of Fox News too, huh?

                                My point was, know wtf you are talking about if you are going to do a review or whatever that video was. I've owned a dozen pairs of CCP footwear and don't consider myself an expert but I can tell you those boots in the video sure don't look to be kangaroo leather.
