Alright, so, that fancy-schmancy name, Balenciaga, what’s all the fuss about, huh? Seems like everyone’s talkin’ ’bout it. I ain’t got a clue what it means, but I see it everywhere. Let me tell ya what I think.
First off, them Balenciaga shoes. Lordy, they look like somethin’ the cat dragged in and then tried to chew up. Big ol’ clunky things, like bricks on your feet. I seen pictures, mind you, ain’t never seen ’em in real life. But the young’uns, they go crazy for ’em. Spendin’ a whole month’s rent on somethin’ that looks like it fell off a garbage truck. I tell ya, the world’s gone mad. You could buy a whole pig for that kinda money!
And the clothes? Don’t even get me started. Ripped jeans, that’s what they call fashion now? I got ripped jeans from workin’ in the garden, ain’t nobody payin’ me a king’s ransom for ’em. But these Balenciaga outfits, they got holes everywhere, threads hangin’ loose, look like they’re half-finished. And the colors? Sometimes bright enough to make your eyes water, sometimes so drab you’d think they were dug up from the ground.
- Shoes: Big and clunky, like I said. Not my cup of tea, that’s for sure.
- Clothes: Holes and loose threads everywhere. Call that style? I call it a mess.
- Prices: Don’t even ask. More than I make in a year, I bet.
They say it’s high fashion. High somethin’, alright, maybe high prices! This fella, Cristobal Balenciaga, started it all, way back when. A Spaniard, they say. Guess he had a different idea of what looked good. Now, some other fella named Demna runs the show. Keeps comin’ up with these crazy ideas, and people eat it up like candy.
I heard someone say somethin’ about Balenciaga problems. What kind of problems could you have with clothes? Too many holes? Not enough threads? It’s beyond me, I tell ya. They even talk about how to “style” it. Like puttin’ a ripped shirt with ripped pants makes it look…better? Seems like more trouble than it’s worth.
And these Triple S sneakers? They say you gotta buy a size smaller ’cause they’re so big. And they ain’t even comfortable for walkin’ around all day! So you spend a fortune on shoes that don’t fit right and hurt your feet? Makes perfect sense, doesn’t it? And them numbers on the side? That’s just the size, not some secret code. Go figure.
I seen folks on them social medias, showin’ off their Balenciaga stuff. Puttin’ on airs, like they’re somethin’ special. But I ain’t impressed. Give me a good pair of overalls and a sturdy pair of work boots any day. That’s what I call comfortable and practical. And it won’t break the bank neither.
This Balenciaga thing, it’s just a trend, I reckon. Like them bell-bottom pants back in the day. Here today, gone tomorrow. But the prices, they stay high, that’s for sure. So, if you got money to burn, go ahead, buy yourself some fancy ripped clothes and clunky shoes. Me? I’ll stick to what I know. At least I’ll be comfortable and have some money left over for a good meal.
So that’s the long and short of it, as far as I can tell. Balenciaga blues, maybe that’s what happens when you spend all your money on somethin’ you can’t even wear to the grocery store without people starin’. Just my two cents, mind you. Take it or leave it.
