Kyle Korver nah it makes the followers bandwagons and the leaders stick out..like niggas will see you in pumas and be like what are those they'll see you in vans and call you a white boy.....followers follow the culture, leaders and real creators define and set the culture but Buscemi just called these hypebeast out

@badjoj015 7 жыл бұрын

it's the influence that makes followers follow the trend and culture. some followers won't go with the hype and even mathematically and scentifically explain why a certain sneaker is trash. some followers have a mind of their own... whether they fuck wit it regardless of the hype

Dj Clark Kent is wrong bruh.. if you say Jordans are different from nike then y'all should consider yeezys different from adidas. regarding that, Jordans and Yeezys will be considered as different products from adidas and nikes then the up game of adidas is not fully "up" coz Yeezys made adidas more famous. Think about it..

@Austrianking23 7 жыл бұрын

I was caught up in the hype for a few months, but all they do is put their Boost in every KInd of shoe and the masses think is innovative. And once they have a shoe that works they bring out 10 Colorways a week to keep the hybebeasts entertained and hyped up, as you can see with the NMDs and Ultraboost. They are going to have a quick run but i think it will die down soon.

@warrengslab 7 жыл бұрын

Erik Wolf nope

@Cletus23FTW 7 жыл бұрын

i think you are wrong. They put boost in shoes cause it is comfy. People aren't gonna buy shoes if they're innovative if they look like shit. Adidas looks cool and is innovative.

@Austrianking23 7 жыл бұрын

I'll admit that Boost was innovative and something new when it came out, but the silhouettes of their shoes are not. Most of them are "Inspired"/ripped off of older Models they had and which worked or loke like like plain running shoes (I still think that the yeezy boost 350 lokks like a roshe). I know that other Brands do this too, but that is not my problem with Adidas, my problem is that people call this innovative.
