Fake Luxury Shoe Store Prank proves Luxury is just Perception - Payless

  • Payless, a low-cost shoe retailer, opened a fake luxury shoe store called "Palessi" and filled it with the brand's inexpensive footwear. Consumers paid up to $600 for shoes that retail for $20-$40. Does this experiment prove that designer brands are just perceived as being luxurious rather than actually being luxurious?

      If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven.
      The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved.
      JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
      Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.'
      Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late.
      We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now...
      'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.

      Marketing wins! The gullible loses. I love designer clothes but my goodness the crazy things people do to own them. No thanks. I get most of mine used or new but secondhand. It’s not worth the price they charge. At least if I make the stupid decision to buy designer items full price I do it fully informed that luxury is a waste, luxury is not an investment, and luxury doesn’t automatically equate quality or status. It’s still insanity when I do make such a purchase and I know partly it has to do with my insecurity as a child and other unresolved issues. It’s annoying to be so self aware about my own feelings insanity but at least I don’t make stupid proclamations about clothes being of value. These mindless sheep. CRINGE.

      If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven.
      The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved.
      JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16
      Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.'
      Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late.
      We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now...
      'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.

      Insane Propaganda mhh ni, perché comunque la qualità si sente eccome. Lavorerà anche un cinese sottopagato nella mia industria, ma lo fa con materiale di qualità. Certo non vale per tutti i brand (vedi off white), però in generale paghi molto anche la qualità. Stone Island è ormai made in Romania da tanti anni, ma la qualità prezzo é pazzesca e senti il materiale. Prendi Ermengildo Zegna, un maglione é buono di costare 800€, però è composto in cashmere e/o seta per quel prezzo.
      Stessa cosa vale per le scarpe, sono tutte Made in china ormai, però hai mai toccato con mano una replica (per esempio in Thailandia dove è legale)? Beh nel caso non lo avessi fatto, ti garantisco che nelle repliche un boost di Adidas è solamente disegnato, ma al piede di certo provandole sentiresti che non é realmente presente nella suola (nonostante comunque siano paese di produzione ed operai gli stessi).

      yungtiide if you talk about Off White and other lucky brands of the moment, that’s true. But if you look at Zegna or Loro Piana that make cashmere and silk jumpers only, you are paying also for the quality. In any case you are right, we usually pay the name and not only the quality (no name/not from a luxory brand cashmere jumper = 300€), but it’s not true claiming that their quality is the same as a replica

It's not so easy to tell how something would wear and age in the long run by just trying it on for a few minutes. So I understand why this Palessi thing worked. It just wouldn't work for too long.

      Because of of those brands are overpriced … Real ´high quality’ luxury brands are unknown to most people and only worn by rich people, not middle class, and they don’t go around advertising it all over their body like people do with Channel and LV bags.
      Real luxury is discreet, brand is hidden and most of time clothes are tailored to fit the person wearing them …like Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg, or Elon Musk , you wouldn’t see them in any of those brands unless they’re paid to wear them 😂, they wouldn’t do it for free.

    All of a sudden, it’s an incredibly hard surprise to find a fake luxury designer bag. Funny, kind of like certain someones chased off competition.

    people try so hard to seem chic and rich yet know absolutely nothing about quality. payless shoes have horrible quality, no shade. like anyone with eyes could tell those were not worth hundreds.

      Not necesswrily. Gycci shoes have the same quality as primark shoes, if not kust a bit higher. You are bette off getting a pair of vans if you are searching for auality. And designer shoes don’t last for “years” as the design becomes old and outdated and some brands including lous vuitton actually burn their old designs. Also, if you are paying 1000 pounds for a pair of heels that you are going to wear “every dat” for a life time l you can still get over 10 pairs of mote comfortable nike shoes that would actually last a life time. Designer doesnt mean quality.

    Caring for the brand and labels it's not a new thing in the world. People that buy by those standards are not wearing what they want, they're dressing for the others around them to see and like.
    I've noticed this since I was in high-school ages ago , that's when the average person's "fashion shows " begin. And also my friends that really had money were the ones that dressed more simple (quality fabrics and shoes) but very low profiled.
    When you dress to only impress instead of just what you like either is cheaper or more expensive (which is obviously more likely to last longer and better design) you're just a slave to others opinions and judgments instead of being comfortable being yourself.
    I believe that there's absolutely nothing wrong with buying expensive items(it's just a choice that concerns to each person obviously as it's good to have nice and better things too😊)

    I used to think that owning a luxury was an unattainable dream, until *amzclothes* told me that this dream is actually very close. The sense of fashion comes not only from the brand, but also from personal matching and attitude.
