The infamous Yeezy Busta on YouTube (
One of the many things he does is that he will try and expose someone for wearing a pair of "fake" Yeezys by posting their photo up and comparing their shoes/clothes with that of the "authentic" ones. He will often times post photos showing very precise stitching or graphic printing in comparison to one that is not manufactured as well. As it is easier to tell the quality of something by its stitching, THE STITCHING & GRAPHIC PRINT IS NOT A TRUE WAY TO DETERMINE AUTHENTICITY. This is HIGHLY MISLEADING and above all it is NOT effective in the long run to those looking to purchase shoes.
HERE'S WHY:
COMPANIES such as: BALENCIAGA, ADIDAS, NIKE AND OTHER LUXURY BRANDS, OUTSOURCE TO CHINESE FACTORIES FOR THEIR SHOE PRODUCTION.
With that being said, there's going to be a lot less "quality control" when your shoes are being made in mass production in another country. This is why you have so many pairs of the same shoes being sold for cheaper ONLINE and why some of them look defective or messed up.
YOUR SHOES AREN'T FAKE
"Why Does He Do This?"
Yeezy Busta and other people like him do this to sway people's opinion and influence them to pay more. He even has his own website where he is offering "authentic" shoes, but if you look in the photos above, you'll see that even his "real" pairs of BOOSTS have stitching issues like that of the "fake" ones he posts about.
TLDR - Yeezy Busta is a con artist consumerist who is trying to make money for either a company or himself by claiming someone's clothes/shoes are fake based on flawed production.
Don't let yourself be fooled. Just because it says "Nike", "Adidas", or even "Gucci", doesn't mean the company makes them in the US or for the amount their charging.
Stay aware.
