Ehhh agree to disagree, respectfully. Underrated and underappreciated is just verbiage that shake out to mean the same thing in this instance. Just like dblplay1212 and SUPER BLACK example pairs they posted... In my opinion, they are very underrated, underappreciated etc. While, imo, every single Collab being discussed in this thread recently would be considered to be overrated. ImoBecause hypebeasts give a **** about what other people think, or in this case how something is "rated", since they can't think for themselves. What you're describing as underrated is better said as underappreciated. Other people's ratings are just subjective opinions and not something I ever factor into my own judgment of something.
^ agreed with @fluid hips always saw more 90s, 95s, and now 97s since they came back hard in 2017. And for the old heads, LTDs
I agree that the terms can be used by Hypebeasts as well. But, I also believe that a true sneaker enthusiast can use the terms as well in proper context, without being Beasty. In fact, just the opposite.
Of course, it's just my opinion though.
