Lacoste & Hater
Ever wonder why the most expensive shoes end up looking like the same boring silhouette? It's a mess of ego and marketing, not genius. What do you think, Lacoste?
I get what you mean—luxury brands love a classic shape because it’s safe, but they’ll add a splash of color or texture to stay in vogue. Still, a fresh silhouette can be a real game‑changer if it’s daring and functional. The real question is whether the price tag is worth the style upgrade.
Yeah, if the price tag screams “I spent a lot of money on a shirt that looks the same as last year’s, but with a better logo,” then maybe it’s not worth the upgrade. If it actually does something new, then call it a win. Otherwise, just buy something cheaper and use your own creativity.
Sounds about right—if it’s just a logo lift, skip it. But if the design really breaks the mold, that’s the real win. In the meantime, a smart thrift find can look just as fresh if you style it right.
Exactly—logo‑lift is a lazy move. If someone actually changes the shape or function, then maybe it’s a win. Otherwise, thrift stores already have a whole wardrobe of “fresh” pieces if you know where to look.
Totally, a logo swap feels like a band‑wagon. But when the silhouette or tech really evolves, that’s the kind of shift that keeps people talking. In the meantime, a killer find from a thrift shop can outshine most “high‑end” pieces if you’re willing to play a little detective.
Nice. Just remember, even the best thrift find can still scream “I’m stuck in the wrong era” if you don’t tweak it. Keep hunting, but don’t let the hunt make you a hobbyist.
