WTB: Fear Of God Millitary Sneakers

OH YEAH BABY! You all know what these things are... Fear of God's first ever sneaker, which was supposed to release in May (Jerry's production is very slow) finally just dropped at select retailers. To my knowledge, Kith sold out of all sizes within 4 minutes of release. I was curious how hype these things would be, and it turns out these are just as hyped as the fourth collection jeans that everyone would kill for. It is pretty clear to me that Jerry Lorenzo has heard of Rick Owens, because these things are the weight watchers version of a Geobasket. The stitching, the outsole, and the interior zippers are a direct Rick Owens influence. So if you wanna cop these instead of Geobaskets, make sure you have the full Jerry Lorenzo starter kit ready to rock. This would include ripped blue jeans, a vintage rock tee you payed $700 for, and a bandana. I gotta admit these were a lot better in person than I expected. They were manufactured in Italy, so the quality is pretty good. But like, just buy Geobaskets for $500 instead of begging you parents to spend racks on these nylon sneakers (not even leather fam). But if you can't resist being a hypebeast for like 2 seconds, just cop these so you can flex on the gram and be cool for like half a second. It already looks like these are reselling for $600 over retail, so you better sell your entire wardrobe now. Just some last style advice, PLEASE DO NOT wear these with your ripped blue jeans and Fear of God sweat shorts like Bieber did... He bricked it fam.
