Some of you all will buy this, only helping to continue this foolishness...

Rather have those than some dated Lanvin silhouettes or some boring CP type shoes. ‍

Ya it's definitely 100% YMMV, but some locations will have surprising gems. I've found high end items that have no business being in there and I was shocked.

I didn't buy both of those that I just posted though. Good deals but I'm off of SLP sneakers right now. Especially those Court Classic kind. I picked those up and the entire shoe is cheap like a canvas ked. It wasn't even lined with leather or anything or didn't appear to be well made at all (I know you're paying for the Saint Laurent name). I also don't care for that design at all. With the pre distressing and sharpie looking "Saint Laurent" on the side. I'd rather spend my $300 on a dress shoe or another boot. The Givenchy chelsea boots were a pretty good deal at $399.99 but I didn't need them. I have a pair of black leather Tom Ford chelsea boots that I got for around the same price.

The funny thing is that I was actually pretty heated/annoyed that there wasn't much more than that. It's pretty unreasonable still because expecting "more" from Marshalls isn't like it's the most logical thing lol. I just know what I've seen in the past and those SLP sneakers are actually SS18, so it's pretty surprising that those were there considering they are basically new season's stuff.

There was also a pair of classic black Gucci oxford dress shoes that I saw in my size, but a guy snatched them before I could pick them up. I wasn't even mad about it though because he said they were $400 and Gucci isn't truly a great shoe maker in terms of dress shoes. That's just a designer dress shoe that's a basic black shoe. If they were some Crockett & Jones or John Lobb...then I would have been mad lol.

I just checked mine , they don't even have Ralph Lauren

Lmao. That's actually pretty sad because even the "worst" locations around the city for me at least have like a whole bunch of Ralph Lauren and items of that calibre. The stores that will have like Saint Laurent, Tom Ford, Gucci and that caliber of items is super rare.

 

[rfx45]

I usually only see Lauren by Ralph Lauren which is about US Polo Assn level.

Speaking of Polo , anyone watch the Complex docu Horsepower?


Going to HS in the late 90's this brought back some memories.. about to go raid my moms pad!

I posted that video 5 days ago in the Polo thread on the General and nobody seemed to care about it for whatever reason

SMH... that docu was great IMO...nostalgia on 10

Man...one of my boys just got finessed on eBay and bought a fake pair of the Tom Ford Orford sneakers a few days back. He just sent me the link and I looked at the pictures and immediately knew they were fake. I just don’t know why he didn’t consult me before buying them since he knows I have a pair of them. He thought he got a steal at $250 but they are fake as hell. I was surprised that they weren’t “terrible fakes” but I could still tell they were fake.

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

Hope your boy gets his money back. You see people trying to sell Tom Ford shoes with no box on Ebay for $355

Well them people probably catching the blackchiney08 special, but still fakes probably sprinkled in there

 

[blackchiney08]

Ya that’s for sure. I’m definitely not saying there aren’t serious come ups because I got my pair for $230 brand new with the box. The listing said they were “worn once” so I guess my friend thought they were that cheap because of that, but you have to use your spider senses at times when things are too good to be true. He’s already trying to open a paypal case.

Gotta do your homework before you buy anything on Ebay

Finesse game is real

For sure. When you buy anything on eBay it can be a serious risk. In his defense though, if you don’t own the shoes, it’s hard to tell what’s fake with that pair just by those few pictures but I noticed that the tread on the sole of the shoe is not right. Authentic pairs actually have a rubber section that has TF and actually says TOM FORD stamped in the middle. The cheap materials are also a dead giveaway. There’s like a cotton material lining the ankle area and heel area but the authentic pair has full leather. The suede looks like a poor grade and the stitching is sloppy. The back part of the shoe was the biggest giveaway for me as well. The gum sole area is supposed to come up pretty high in the back and almost reaches the middle of the back of the shoe. The TOM FORD on the back of the heel is also much too large on the fake pair. Like I said, it isn’t super easy to tell they’re fake.

This is an authentic pair here,
