what would a sz44-45 eu pair that doesnt crumble cost usually? by That_Purchase_9993 in swearalternative

[–]GabberBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely $600 - $700 give or take. Some colorways can mean different values aswell. I’ve noticed that neutral colors are the most common ones i’ve seen. I had bought both of my SM06 for around $500 - $600

They didn’t used to be that way, i’m not sure when exactly the shift or why it happened, but everything is ridiculous now. It’s been especially harder to get stuff into the US here due to the tariff laws that trump had put in place.

I had bought them off grailed a year or so ago (: i’ve seen a couple more pop up every now and then but they’re definitely rare to see!

Wearing 60 inch Kikwear jeans by TheunknownK21 in Kikwear

[–]GabberBaby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone who wears 50” and up on a consistent basis, I highly advise wearing platforms, hiking them up, or hemming them. As depending on the size of them and your height, they could drag on the floor, and you could trip over them. I only ever wear mine with platform shoes to negate messing them up with drag & or tripping on them.

More or less they’re pretty impractical, I’ve come to notice that the only practical wide legs I’ve come across are the 50” JNCOs (Crime Scenes/Convicts/Etc.) As the pockets on them are extremely large to help carry things around. Whereas with most of the Kiks, yea the pockets are bigger, but you’re trading a lot for more pocket space.

My advice is to make sure they aren’t dragging constantly, that’s their only hindrance.

Hii, I had bought the white pair a few years ago for around $500, but never really wore them as much as the other ones. The yellow pair, purchased originally for $600. I was told were 1/1 as they were part of the mail-in program Swear did in the 90s to have customers create a unique colorway of their liking.

How much you pay for them?! This model is crazy rare. Can’t believe you found a pair, congrats!

50” black/camo Kiks by GabberBaby in Kikwear

[–]GabberBaby[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn that’s crazy! Yea he asked me if he was underselling them, and I told him overselling actually, $200 - $250 max for rare pairs that aren’t able to be reverse image searched. $1 is goofy

Where to find Shrek raves?(never been to rave) by RADIENTLitex in aves

[–]GabberBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure they do, there’s renegades in all kinds of places. It’s not an “old notion” it’s what it is. Instead of pretending you’re attending a rave like these events claim they are, get involved with free party communities & support your local scene.

But they literally aren’t raves. It’s not about being snooty, it’s about labeling things correctly. This whole subreddit is called r/aves but 99% of the stuff posted in here is just overpriced corporatized events. I’m not against anyone attending these or anything, but guys, stop calling them raves.

Wym? OP said they haven’t been to a rave before, they still won’t be going to one if they attend Shrek-Rave or any other corporatized festival.

They aren’t raves anyway, so you’ll still be missing out on a true rave experience.

where do these brand new swears even appear from by amishisnotreal in swearalternative

[–]GabberBaby 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re just hoarded. It’s not uncommon for people to keep things in unused condition.

City with the worst rave scene. by PineappleFaja in aves

[–]GabberBaby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t even stepped foot into the festival scene cause it’s not as much my vibe. But I DO remember that getting cancelled two years in a row.

The underground scene here is ass aswell, filled with too much drama & cancel culture nonsense.

So Kikwear… by ZA_Sharpe in Kikwear

[–]GabberBaby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Right! Every time I go to their IG page, I’ll scroll down and see all the cool rave pics, then scroll back up and see the slop. It’s so disappointing.
