I always have trouble coming up with good content for days like today...it happened a lot during the early days of the pandemic where it all just felt so superfluous and vapid.
I kept asking myself...why am I focusing on the pursuit of this over-the-top consumer good when people are dying and losing their jobs? Why am I focusing on goddam shoes when people are trying to ensure they receive the same social liberties as I am?
I kinda voiced this, at the time, and I got a ton of responses in the DMs that basically all said the same thing - ‘what you post is an escape...it allows us to forget about the world for a minute and focus on something we really like to focus on. Don’t feel bad posting about shoes - it’s what we actually want to hear about when everything else is all f*cked up.’ Come to think of it - when I’m super stressed, I either go for a run or I go digging for shoes (and other stuff) at my local thrift stores...I know it’s probably some deep seated psychological issue at play there, but sometimes it helps my brain work on something other than eating itself trying to solve things I’m up against...so...I understand that response.
Anyway, enough of that...here’s a couple of things I came across today in my travels...an $8k hoodie for $30 and a pair of Yeezy x Napa Valley Football Club 350’s.
Real or fake? LOL
