    We buy shows that last a few months

    You might be, I’ve had my shoes for years now.

    If you’re buying shitty shoes, that’s on you and you’re a part of the very problem you’re complaining about.

    If you’re talking about we as in the people, do you think that somehow magically cutting marketing would get rid of shitty products? That’s not how it works, maybe garbage like Supreme wouldn’t exist but that’s just a tiny piece of the pie

      I was speaking in hyperbole.

      3 years myself, I wear leather re-solable boots, but most people in my life like branded tac, they like the adverts as it shows them things they’d like to buy. Marketing allows products to be shit.

      Also a lot of marketing isn’t just showing a product. They’re selling a lifestyle. Once someone buys into that type of persuasion it becomes a cult
