Why do so many of ya fall victim to da Halo Effect?

[doitallpaul]

allow me to translate:
simply because a brand is considered a leader in one arena, it does not mean that the popularity/cool points garnered from that one product will translate to other products from that particular company.
example:
timberland boots: official
timberland jeans: not so much

this as well, ill rep u when its unlocked again.

but everything by Nike and Jordan is cool (sarcasm)

ok now i get it i agree with ninja. i've generally felt that way when i see shoes made by north face or ralph lauren. (north face prolly gives u that lifetime warranty tho so...)

[fudgemoney24]

That Jordan jacket is hilarious

 

[Peep Game]

I think he's speaking on people buying items of lesser quality from high end companies just because of the name.. but he uses champion as an example so I might be wrong.
What's da meaning, b

but they are eternal.

When I see older guys my age and up (25-27+)  wearing either I usually rule them out as non-productive members of society, I'm usually right. 
That's like Barrack wearing Air-Yeezys and a leather kilt to an UN meeting. 


No judgement about their character just stating facts.

 

[cocotaso1]

nah, buddy was saying that the boots are official and the machines not so much.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

i get what you mean.........kinda. but i think the barrack comparison is a bit off. simply because timbs and hoodies have been in effect for 20+ years and have essentially become a staple of the urban eastcoaster's dress code. yeezys and leather skirts are a new phenomenon for the fashion forward set and it hasn't really bled into the mainstream to show if it is gonna to stay around.

Kilts have been a staple on the east coast since the early 80's all the way into the mid 90's, Again even though there are exceptions, most people who wearing coneheads and wheaties in their mid-twenties to earlier forties are usually non-productive members of society.

kilts have never been a staple in american fashion (at least in the modern sense, as in the last century). when have you ever seen a kilt section at macy's?

even you said early 80s-to mid 90s, meaning they had a run and are no longer in favor. hence not being a staple.

but now we are getting away from the point, back to the so called "halo" effect.

if you'd like to discuss this any further my pm box is open.

[currensy]

yeah but if moms came thru w/ roc a wear sneakers you would look at her crazy, right?

air force ones are my favorite sneakers of all time though

 

[ninjahood]

levi's jeans are cool

the fake wannabe vans/converse levi's sneakers are not.

i used to cringe when people used to ask me about those once upon time when i was up in journeys.
