Replica Air Jordan 4 X Kaws Jordan 4 Retro ‘Cool Grey’

 Expensive basketball shoes have long been a status symbol of the poor. Think about it, all they do is say “I had $200”.

If you are an adult who for some reason feels you have to project the fact that you were able to scrape together a whole $200 then by all means but the fake ones. No one is ever likely to notice.

If you are a teenager don’t do it. Some other kid will be able to tell and instead of being the kid who just isn’t wearing Jordan’s you become the kid with the fake Jordan’s, which is exactly the opposite of what you are probably looking for. Just buy some converse or something instead, they still have brand name credibility but at normal prices.

Those shoes are a large part (along with chrome rims on cheap cars and the latest cell phone) of a general poverty mentality of flaunting the little bit of wealth that you don’t really have. If that is how you want to live then go ahead and do it.

Not meant to imply that everyone with nice basketball shoes are poor, but lower income people are way more likely to be wearing them than those with more means.
