Balenciaga Triple S Breds: Don't Believe The Hype
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- Complex's weekly series Don't Believe the Hype takes a look at what's hot and what's just hot air. Sneakers, clothes, tech, food-nothing is safe. One of the most hyped sneakers in the last few years is Balenciaga's Triple S sneaker. So what happens when they decide to drop a "bred" colorway very similar to the Jordan 1? The hype was so big, we decided to wait on line for several hours in the rain to get these...and Complex employees didn't hold back at all when they got their eyes on them, in this episode of Don't Believe The Hype.

When this vid dropped I didn’t believe the hype too, and now I’m literally about to buy a pair next week.
ahmed Wair sane here they started growing on me and got one for a good price on Grailed
ahmed Wair You wasted one thousand dollars on chunky shoes you’ll wear for a year
@@ThecrazyJH96 you can wear them longer lol
ImChronic I have two pairs, my first pair was bought nearly two years ago
@@erique_k , i got two pairs as well. I agree
Boi said 5’13
Mans didn't disappoint
Lol 😂
Two big ass sketchers lol 😆
@@DoubleZippea if you can’t afford them just say that
On foot it looks fine imo, not worth $850 though. And people are complaining about the price, obviously it’s marketed to people who have that amount of money to spend so what are you complaining for if you don’t even like it? And it’s pretty bold saying that “nobody” likes Balenciaga shoes and that people only like them for “the hype” because people have different tastes and they’re made by a designer brand. Tbh I don’t even know why I’m talking about this because at the end of the day people are people and shoes are just fuckin shoes...
Real talk👌
i kinda wanna buy em off wonderkicks hahaha they 175$ in the cream colorway and they pretty dope i might actually cop those instead of wasting 1000$ on them
really the only people I see wear the balenciaga triple s are fashionistas that are not into "hypebeast" or "complex". they're usually into "vogue", "harpers bazaar", etc...
Paul Dela yeah thats true because they know much more about styling them and fashion in general but there are a few hypeasts with triple s out there too but these are ugly af
Go to Seoul, Korea we come in a bunch of groups, and some of them are rocking Triple S. It's funny how American fashion culture couldn't handle this shoe since they are stuck with their bogos, hoodies, and skinny distressed jeans. Pretty much what 12 American kids would wear. Lol
VITTXRIO yeah Koreans are much much more into fashion sometimes theyre rocking pretty crazy stuff but i love it
@@weirdreportt garbage triple s is wack 😭😭😭😭😭😭😆
VITTXRIO you really just *DRAGGED* The U.S.A
That asian girl deadass looks like Yumi Ishiyama from Code Lyoko! Do your googles hahahaha
Haha, Code Lyoko has always been the shit!
Black Minimalist bruh, you right on point with that
Black Minimalist 😅😅😅
Great, now you make me want to binge watch Code Lyoko.
Have to watch Code Lyoko again
Ngl it kinda looks dope on foot
It's just part of the oversized culture that we're currently in. Everyone's rocking oversized jackets right now, so what's so bad about an oversized shoe?
All these Americans hating on the Triple S because they are still on the style Kanye used to rock in 2015.
Bernd Stromberg well said....
dont forget jordans...
Simon Lu. yah but your comparing a basketball shoe to a fashion runway shoe. that's like reading a complex magazine to a vogue magazine..... and besides being at the age of a 40 year old female, i dont see myself wearing a jordan, I just look like I'm trying to look like a highschool kid....
So true lmfaooo
How has that Asian kid got a 500 dollar chrome hearts hat on and 1000+ Balenciaga shoes on? How much are you guys getting paid at Complex????
yoloswaggins49 bad investments 😂😂😂
I saw the weeknd perform in a similar hat like that at coachella but atleast that dudes made 90 mil last year 😂😂
That doesn’t mean he paid that much
The balenciaga triple s isnt that expensive at all maybe some resell prices about 1000+ but thats stupid the retail price is about 700
His family is rich?
Trust the 2 Chinese people and the white boy to say yes 😂😂😂
This just proves ppl are followers these shoes are ugly as hell, ppl will wear anything as long as others say it looks good or if its expensive
they look like a pair of shoes my granny would get from her doctor to combat her back pain
Your Majesty, Yeah, there are a lot of followers in the world that buy stuff without even liking them and there are people that are actually into high fashion.
Alejandro Serrano well said. I've owned all spectrum of shoes balenciaga has made - heels to boots and now sneaker. being late in my age late 30s, I dont see myself wearing Jordan's and yeezys. i feel like when I wear them it's like I'm trying to look young or in high school.
yeezy 700
i love mine, i think they dope
The shoes so trash . Ppl only buy them because of the name. Put them in Payless and see how many people buy them then
Prince Cal you can honestly say that with any shoe tbh
Prince Cal facts they ugly as shit
Prince Cal I mean payless copies the brands so yeah.
people still buy skechers, nike air monarchs and new balance because they like the style. The brand is a big part sure, but it’s not everything.
The name brand also shows the quality of the item
I just bought this model two days ago😅
hater777 victim 🐑
@@DMWBN3 stop it with theae comments. Its his choice not yours. If he likes them and he has the money he may buy them. And its not alwaya bout the hype. I personally whould prefer them if they werent balenciaga.( i dislike the brand but not the shoe )
O B Y K V N X B Y stop with these comments.....😀😀
You sound like dick Turpin!
@@obykanobyit's not his choice they were marketed and he reacted
I bought em and they are super comfortable. Downside was they only came in 1 size and my feet look really big. Still worth it in my opinion, plus I got it for 550-ish dollars on therealreal so yay for me
That Palm Angels hoodie tho 🔥
love them
Man I'm glad these weren't around growing up, my dad loved launching shoes at me while being lazy watching tv and I was being annoying,,,these things would've caused lots of damage property alone including human KO's and TKO's...shoe (pun intended SHEW!)
Definitely DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE
1:35 pure comedy
Sure the look is polarizing, but in/on person they are actually quite nice. the shoes are actually the comfiest pair of sneakers I have ever worn. yes they are way overpriced especially now that it is made in china. but if they were maybe 250$ they would be the best sneakers ever.
badum dadum i agree i know late to your comment I really like the pair but all of my friends hate the sneaker
I like the Balenciaga's as well...the shoe is very intriguing...
You must be broke as hell. I have it and the Balcenciaga's are the most uncomfortable shoe in my collection. I'll probably give it away to my little cousin. They're heavy and don't compare to literally any nike or Jordan I have. Just admit you're a sheep
These shoes are so beautiful in person. And also so comfortable I owned 3 of them
They remind me of that episode of Doug where he buys those big ass basketball shoes
lmao exactly
Super Pretendo
the girl who looks like Yumi from code lyoko has a nice af voice
2022. Still. Believe the hype.
If I see anyone in a pair of these shoes or with a Balenciaga handbag or purse, they're losing it.
🗣DEM SHITS COMFORTABLE THO
FACTS!
I love them I’m so happy with mine
They feel better than dem damn speed trainers lol
they better be 'cause DEM SHITS LOOK RIDICULOUS THO
@@aryarock22 do they come in half sizes??? Do they run big or small???
BalenciUGLY
who da fuck would buy these nightmare-ish horribles?
-broke
I like their look, amazing outfits can be created with these
Just copped a pair today lol, love them
What color??? Debating on these or the blue and yellow ones
Just got a pair. Believe the hype!
Same
@@quinn367 what colors? I got the Gucci Hacker project monogram GG. So beautiful 🤩
@@kingoppsanti5830 black and the sole is the see threw ones just the one I saw a shi ton of my favourite rapers wearing there a bit heavy tho
@@quinn367 cool. They are not made for walking all day 😂 They more for fashion than comfort.
@@kingoppsanti5830 💯
0:48 that girl straight outta code lyoko
Yo you got me going back to watch it all over again, brings back so memories 😅
Smh. Do the new Puma Sneakers next. They look fye 🔥🔥
There are a number of shoes in this new dad shoe trend that have grown on me, but I still don't like the triple s. I like the yeezy 700 and 500, puma spectra, adidas yung 1, and even the m2k techno by Nike to an extent, but these.... nah... I'll keep y'all posted if that changes lmfao.
clown shoes with high pricetag. nothing more.
I knew skechers would be trendy one day I think the skechers shape ups are better than this
whats that asian girls name?
Ling ling
yall are foul lol
Its suk mi
Don't exaggerate , i bought them and they're super comfy and you get used to the weight when you walk more with them. You just gotta get used to it.
The shoes are crap, it's all apart of the overpriced consumer culture that is so trendy these days. I mean do what you want but don't blame me for laughing at you when I see you on the streets 😂
_Jamison_ The price is high as fuck, but the shoes are fresh in my opinion. There's different tastes.
Kristian Paltila
Fresh pile of dookie
bro u listen to passenger. shut yo dum ass up
So you sound like youre caring about other ppl's opinions heres a tip just give a fuck what other ppl say at you and be more confident there are people out the who just want to look different and not like everyone else with airmax or ultraboosts thats why many people buy that expensive stuff its unique and most of other ppl dont have that
Nah man, you lot are trying too hard to 'stand out' and you follow all the wrong cues, wear whatever you want to look different buddy, this just show that you lot have ZERO personality and/or taste and just go for whatever is new, in this case, overpriced clown shoes but whatever man i might just be a hater... at least people are not laughing AT me when i quote "look different" end quote.
dont forget they're made in china now, y'all getting scammed for some sweatshop kicks at 1grand lmao
Jordan Thompson
I mean the same can be said for just about 90% of all other shoes. At this point it's just a fact of life for sneakerheads.
Lmao you dumb asf They made in italy
Congratulations, you played yourself.
U ever held these in hand? Quality is insane
yes Ive seen them in person, you must have low standards tbh
Oh god you guys need to do one ON THEIR PLATFORM CROCS!!!
Bought mine for € 779 ! Dublin 🇮🇪
Triple S CLEAR’S 🔥🔥🔥
When you put them and look down at them and see how crazy they look and how comfortable they are, the air bubble with the sole helps, not with the weight.. doh!. You will want them. First time walking in them is funny but you get used to the weight over time. If making long distances bring a backpack and some Yeezy’S or Ultra-Boost as back-ups.
They should be €550 since making the move to China 🇨🇳,
"I didn't realise, there are literally three soles" IM DONEEEEE
When the guy said by the shape of the box i thought you where doing an episode on birthday cake 🎂. The rice I was eating went up my nostril, next time I see don’t believe the hype I would make sure I’m not eating
I love these personally. They are really comfortable, they look fucking sick and I like to flex them.
Triple S, triple sole?🤷🏾♂️ lmao
TheRealLitenith yes you got it
@@zn6trash -broke geek
A must cop.
Its fashion and form of self expression. Its not believing the hype or not but if you can incorporate these quirky comfortable sneakers in your wardrobe from time to time,I guess that it. Its how you carry it. Its 1% shoes and 99% attitude.
I love this model very much
Its actually quite comfortable thoo honestly.And its not as heavy its expected to be.But yeah its still an expensive shoe.But what can u expect a shoe from a designer brands right?😅
If I were barefoot in the rain forest, surrounded by fire ants, poisonous snakes AND spiders, and the only shoes available to protect me from deadly venom were these ugly ass shoes..... I'd take my chances!!
Only the people who know how to be themselves understand how fucking amazing this shoe is
Do sneaker shopping with the avengers 😭😭
I swear these designers are just making up stupid shit to make an ass out of our culture now. It’s already a fact that most of em never ever show respect to the artists that’s wearing they shit and giving free promo. So they said, “Let’s create some ridiculous Payless looking ass shoe, strap a huge price tag on it and watch all the rappers and and followers flock to it”. It’s like the story of the king who let himself be played into thinking he was wearing a fly ass outfit but was really walking around ass naked in front of his whole kingdom. Madness is what this shit is and it needs to stop.
Everyone's like: this shoes are ugly af, ppl will like'em if other also do. I do like them and don't care what you think.
No lie, I actually fuck with this shoe, but they were barely worth it when they were made in Italy. Now that they're made in China AND they raised their prices they're out of their damn mind.
damn I guess I'm the only one in the comments who really likes these... I don't give a fuck about high fashion or designer or street wear or any of that bullshit but the ugliness of these shoes really makes me like them
One of the worst shoe brands I've ever seen in my entire life I think the ppl who buy them really don't like em and black ppl like anything with a foreign sounding name attached to it
Heavier than Timbs not worth it ! If you want to be taller get some uptempos !
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 they all look dope wearing it!!!
“They smell like playdo”
the fuck, these look sick
course they're not worth 850, no shoe is, but if you got the money, do what u gotta do
people saying the shoes are trash are just some broke ass haters like bro those balenciaga are pure fire men
Three soles, triple s, triple sole. Well I'll be dammed
"they look like big ass sketchers"
Imma be dead honest I only buy them because I love chunky shoes and to brag about my money🤷🏻♂️
I would rather wear bowling shoes instead of those ugly shits...
id rather wear a lotus feet designed shoe than this fucking piece of shit shoe
ugly ass shoes! is it a hiking shoe?
im still a nike fan gay 👊🏽 #teamNIKE
idk i think balenciagas are a waste of money unlike jordans
WHOLE BUNCHA HYPES lol
there not ugly to me I love um to each there own and 750 is ridiculous I'd do like $300 tops some kid will buy for hype need to sell to buy the next hype item and I'll cop these from him lol
Stephen Barrios what size you wear I’m selling mine
I actually think those look the best out of all of them
It looks like Shaqs shoes from Payless
he canta Shaq + sketcher
Rev em them speesboats boyyyyy vrrrummm vrrumm vrrummmmmmm
Android 18 in the cut
The perfect shoe for small feet or short people
Such a comfortable shoe, has to double up with the bred colourway
Joshua Ackers you crazy
Such and ugly ass shoe
They look like some damn tech foots 😭😭
I'll buy mine after a year or so....after everyone is over them💔
ay hype or not I like these
who s will wear the mac donald shoe.. chunky rubbished
The racerunners way better. Got a couple pair of them
$50 haha. Well, that guy just doesn’t care about all these and prob willing to wear anything that doesn’t stinks. Now, is it worth $850? No, if you just want a pair to wear comfortably and look fine. Yes, if you want to use it as a peacocking/social advantage tool.
I like regular balenciagas doe
lol there is no such thing....they are a fashion house.....they dont make one shoe and thats all
So many ppl are complaining that other ppl buy these just because its expensive or that shit, no they dont but ofc there are some of them but most of them buy that stuff to look more different and not like every one else because some people are confident so why are you mad??
woresh GamePlus To be honest. I just love em. They look great for me and i didn‘t buy em because they are balenciagas or because they are expensive.
Orbit yep i love them too but this colorway in the vid isnt the best in my eyes ^^
woresh GamePlus I bought the black ones with the red/white sole. Also don‘t like this colorway
Orbit hahahah guess what i will buy the black red and white one as well soon hahaha
woresh GamePlus Quality is great and it‘s extremely comfy but you need to be fast. It‘s sold out everywhere already.
i HAAAAAAAATE these trash shoes. Its disgusting that people actually buy these.
To be honest, If Payless sold these shoes I probably wouldn't of bought a pair. The only reason I purchased a pair is because it's a name brand and I also because I like how they look on my feet. Yes, I damn near spent $1,000 on these but I'm happy with my purchase. I also felt good walking into Balenciaga and was like I want these with no hesitation and bought them.
It`s a very comfortable shoe... when u try on u will see, but it is really big. If u are used to "daddy shoes" they will be great, in fact they are lighter than Dolce Gabana Daymaster.
terrible color and size the shoe is legit
How are they gonna call them breds when they are Black and Grey Bred is short for black and red??? Explain!!!
Yo it's the chop cheese guy
personal I believe these shoes are a testament to American culture in our current time frame. Overcompensation, Affluence, Hype, Faux Dirtiness, nineties back in style, etc..Surprised you all aren't more into them?
The shoes are trash af
_Capreesia _ thank you! Hideous af
I’m in the wrong business. Imagine people waiting 2 hours in the rain to buy shoes. Whoever can make people do this has something going for them :)
2:30
Beckster 1888 ?
lol everyone you interviewed dresses awful and has awful shoes on.
apart from the girl and boy who said they believe the hype, they dressed good. coincidence?
After seeing the balenciaga fashion show. It kinda make sense. But honestly those are too big and bulky to be considered a "sneaker"
The best looking lawn mowing footwear available Lawnmoyaga' 5s 😂😂😂😂
All the black people said no lmao
Man so dope..
I like these joints
very different
Does not have to be everybody cup of tea
I remember when yeezy was funny looking at one point
