As for the BS this morning -- I'm just a guy who likes good shoes, but I'm also a 43-year-old married dad. Nobody I interact with on a daily basis has a friggin' clue about Yeezy's or Boost or Kanye. For me, I just like cool, comfy shoes (and have since my 1st pair of Air Revolutions in the 80's).
For folks in certain environments, though, I could see how shoes become a mark of exclusivity, and understand why they may feel emasculated when their signature sign of superiority is undermined when the masses have access to the same. Hell, my wife and I are physicians, and I'll admit that, if getting into med school were as easy as getting a job at McD's, we'd feel that our degrees were cheapened and our sense of authority was professionally lessened.
That being said, though, I would hope that most of the folks here are here because they love sneakers.
In brief, get off my lawn.
If someone wants to feel superior for the sneakers they wear they should be after Margielas, Louboutins, + Gucci sneakers...not yeezys lmao
