Aliph shoes

In the 1980s, Nike shoes were making it big everywhere in the world. In Malaysia, a pair of Nike shoes cost approximately RM200 — which was steep considering that a fresh graduate earned only about RM1,500 a month then. Perhaps sensing an opportunity, Sime Darby subsidiary Sime Darby Footwear Sdn Bhd began selling shoes under its Aliph brand.
​

With its slogan ‘Cemerlang bersama Aliph’ or excelling with Aliph, the shoe company took the country by storm with a massive advertising campaign. A pair of Aliph shoes could be had for as little as RM39.90 and it was relatively cheap compared with the Nike. While Nike shoes were associated with athletes, Aliph went the other way and found fame with rock groups which were often photographed in Malay entertainment magazines wearing their Aliph Hi Cuts.

In fact, rock band Search had a model dedicated to them — aptly named Aliph Search. Today, the humble Aliph shoe has become an icon and is sought by collectors and fans of the ‘rock kapak’ era. A pair which is in fairly good condition can fetch up to RM400.

Denial is one hell of a drug.

Dude talking about sold out tour dates. His denial in understandable since folks really buy his shoes.

 

[nice jahb]

I know a dude who has pairs. I’m going to ask him if he copped because of “black owned” or if he really likes them/quality is on point.
