Look, I don’t dislike customs…I dislike morons. The moron in this case isn’t the ‘customizer’.
amaccustoms grabbed 25 pairs of grey Roshe’s and drew lines on them to mimic the Yeezy 350 Boost. Yeah, not really a true custom, more like an art project. However, that isn’t stopping droves of dipshits from trying to buy the shoe for a $100 markup on the $80 retail price of the Roshe when they could easily just do this themselves. There is no PrimeKnit or material change. There is a drawn-on seem. This was all done with a fabric pen or some paint.
Again…I don’t dislike customizers but the people trying to buy these ‘customs’ off him are idiots. Grab the shoe for retail, head over to an arts and crafts store, buy a black fabric pen, and start drawing. That simple.
Lol dipshits.
THANK YOU NW for putting things in perspective!!! When I saw this I thought it was absolutely ridiculous. It signals a bigger problem though: people will do ridiculous things just to APPEAR to have a highly coveted shoe.
Really NW! Your gonna call people out on buying overpriced shoes, we all buy overpriced shoes, but when it is not in your taste you call people dipshits. If you have a problem with faux stitching post an article promoting truth to materials instead of calling people names.
Stop being so sensitive and taking things out of context. I never said anything about buying overpriced shoes.
You know what’s more aggravating than people buying customs they can literally do with a fabric pen? People who don’t read the article right and start spewing bull. Read it properly. He never mentioned once about buying overpriced shoes except the idiocracy of buying a shoe for a higher markup when its pen-on-shoe.
I mean, hype is hype, and blindly following is most always bad, but how is this any worse or different than people buying the Jordan lab or fusion series or paying less for a flux than for a roshe or more for an eclipse than a roshe or buying a roshe like everyone else or wanting cement print on everything? It’s all relative. Can’t promote the whole “buy what you like” mantra and then lambaste the idiots for buying what they think they like, even if it is only because others like it too. Sheep are sheep. You don’t reprimand them for bleating.
We’re all out here paying hundreds of our hard earned dollars for shoes millionaires wear and billionaires sell and they all earn more the more we buy.
I was simply stating that this can be easily done yourself for a fraction of the cost. Too bad most of you want to try and pick fights or be self righteous about something ridiculous instead of seeing what was clearly stated. Buy whatever you want. Unless I specifically said your name then called you and idiot… then you have no room to say anything.
“Again…I don’t dislike customizers but the people trying to buy these ‘customs’ off him are idiots. Grab the shoe for retail, head over to an arts and crafts store, buy a black fabric pen, and start drawing. That simple.”
But you do understand not everyone is capable of doing customs. Not everyone is artistic or patient enough to do this. So its better to just buy these customs than botching a custom job and have a half-assed looking shoe.
I was unaware that people were incapable of drawing scribble lines.
lmao what the fuck is wrong with people
This reminds me of that episode of spongebob where Patrick puts googly eyes on rocks and he sold them like hot cakes, the people who bought didn’t realize they can do the same for half the price. this is kinda the same thing lol.
Chill out everyone. Dipshit was funny as I haven’t heard that in awhile and etsy is a great place for art projects! Everyone wins!
This is a funny post… why so serious everyone?
People enjoy having sticks up their asses.
thanks for the compliment. not many on this post so i thought i’d highlight the positivity! back to the topic of shoes, i do wonder if the pen used was water proof (not that i am secretly wanting to own a pair). lol
lol nice one nightwing! similar to the redskins player who “customizes” his cleats
it’s all about creativity man hehehe
its 2015. who buys roshes these days..
This was the most entertaining comment section yet. Reading is fundamental, but comprehension keeps you from looking like a self-righteous douche.
I think I know what my next craft project is.
Look at all the comments in this article. *Grabs popcorn
Nightwing SAVAGE AF towards people that don’t want to spend time drawing scribbles on a cheap shoe
