    The word “trend” is the definition of in/out fashion, but nothing dies in fashion as people who wore it before the trend will carry on and people who don’t will be doing so once it comes back on trend. Just wear what you like and you won’t care.

    I think generally using TikTok/Instagram as your guide for what’s trending is fundamentally flawed since those platforms are driven by artificial hype and trend cycles produced by brands. What people are wearing on streets and what they like is much different than what influencers are being paid to push on social media

      Agreed! I believe I only noticed 3 people wearing 550s in the span of a year and in 3 different cities. If something died then the folks making videos about them never really cared about the shoe or style, they were just following the hype.

    The Boston’s will just shift from trendy to classic status like they were in pre-2020. They already had a solid user base before the social media hype which will allow them to remain relevant-just like the Arizona sandals. They’re in contrast to other trends that don’t have decades-long cultural relevancy to sustain them.

    You forgot that Converse and Vans are also sneakers that stand the test of time like the Jordan's. My belief is that when something like these silhouettes that just go with everything and basically interact with every person as something 'non-harmful' and normal they usually just appeal to the greater audience of people who just need a shoe to wear.

    I find myself to be a very frugal person that wants to indulge in trends all the time. I consume trends like everybody else through social media, and have this gigantic urge to purchase popular items like the NB 550s, birks, etcetera. However, I never let myself buy these things for some reason, yet I still suffer for not swiping my card on it. I am always fighting with myself for being too frugal and not letting myself indulge. Then again trends come and go, so by the time I allow myself to spend money, birks and the NB550s are left in the past.

    My favorite trend is something by New Balance.
    Their collaborations with various brands and their fusion of classic designs are spectacular.
    I just recently purchased a pair of M2002RM (i.e. mules) and I'm quite fond of them because they are comfortable as well.
    Sure, 550 is already standing on the cliff of the trend, but I have a feeling that other products will continue to be loved in the future.

    This video was so well put together dude. Great insight on New Balance's hype with the 550 and collaboration. I never ended up getting a pair of 550's but came really close to it. Looking back now I am glad I didn't because I don't think they would go with what I wear now.
    For current favorite trends, definitely looking forward to what does become more popular/gain more traction in the coming months, specifically i'm hoping looser fitting pants/jeans get more popular (so hyped for my naked and famous strong guy's).

      I love 550s. I got like 2 550s (one that I wear to the gym) and a pair of 650s. Definitely lost its hype due to constant mentions and meh cws being released, but its pretty much evolved to a basic shoe (and that's a good thing for NB, in terms of profit). Its the closest alternative to white AF1s for me.

    I feel brushed mohair is part of a wider trend for tactile and textured fabrics - and with all the crochet, cable knits, raffia, linen, borg, boucle, alpaca, casentino wool, faux fur, hairy suede, applique, quilting, embroidery, glitter, embossed leathers, 3D fabrics etc we're still seeing around, I don't think it's going away quite yet. I'm even wondering whether tartan mohair specifically will see a renaissance once we hit winter. EDIT: When something is everywhere, it's easy to call time on the trend and swing to the exact opposite... but the more I think about this, I'm wondering whether 'big texture' could end up being one of those broader themes that sticks around and defines the decade??

    i think regarding the topic of shoes with longevity that there are only so many shoes that have a interesting history to them. A lot of popular shoes these days just don't have the cultural impact of more classic shoes and cant stay around long enough to build one either(although i think it would be neat to hear about more "local Legend" type deals regarding certain shoes)

    #pvv I've started knitting/crocheting this past year but fully on board of maximalist colour combos!! Someone describes a lot bold colour combos as dopamine core and I think that's a perfect way to describe it. Like seeing a bright sun yellow, with a deep cerulean blue accented with various pinks just brings me so much joy and makes me feel like a walking grade school art class haha.
    Also on the mohair, I'm very okay with it falling out of trend in the knitting community, its so pricey for a single ball of mohair so i will say mo-bye to mohair with no regrests

    I love the NB 550 silhouette. my issue with NB 550s were that the colors were always garishly saturated. Their whites were always optic white and not cream, their blacks always black, not charcoal. I exclusively buy a more muted color palette because my skin tone is muted; my clothes gotta match my skintone, my shoes gotta match my clothes. In the rare occurrence that I found NB 550s which fit the strict softer color scheme of my wardrobe, they were always sold out.

    Wool garments are just a pain to deal with to keep clean and with patterns you'd probably have to make sure all the hairs align properly. Also to deal with wool itch, gotta line it with something or wear a shirt under. I assume mohair got popular cuz it gave texture to flatness. Imo it's like a fashion ghille/hunting suit and am waiting for the realtree 3d camo or something to become more mainstream lol.

    I thought the FOG x Birkenstock collab was going to cause another rush for Bostons especially in the taupe colourway, but that didn't seem to happen. Here in the UK there are FOG x Birks sitting everywhere!
    Also agree with your comments on the 550. And I think next year we will be saying the exact same thing about the Sambas! People just get sick of seeing them and then start to hate them.

    Now a days trends are not relevant as it used to be. Its more about how good you look not depending on is it trendy. I feel this way because so many small brands are on the rise and they have a different look.

    I bought my first pair of Boston’s in years (they were huge in my high school circa 2005-2007.) and I still love them but I actually am finding myself more drawn to the London model. Going to order a pair soon. They quite literally look like a moccasin version of the Boston. Weird that the silhouette didn’t catch on as much. Either way as new balance are my primary sneakers I love having birks as an option to throw on if I want to go a little more minimal. Some of my favorite outfits are the uber minimal ones.

    Great points on the new balance 550, with TikTok killing the need for the shoe. On the other hand it is good thing for people who want to get a pair and can now get them without breaking the bank. Great review Drew !!

    Yesterday, I bought a pair of Birkenstock Bostons in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The shop owner told me that, however the high popularity of the Boston model, the new owner of the Birkenstock company, LVMH (owns Louis Vuitton) ceases to sell the Bostons in Europe. They will however sell it in the US and Asia, but for a much higher price than originally.
    Maybe this could be a reason for the decline in popularity, simply because of a decline in availability.

    i will always have a soft spot for the 550s, I believe it is a timelesss silhouette. However, the GRs really killed it. Hopefully, with Teddy Santis heading NB he might be able to turn the 550s around which can achieve true timelesssness with the correct choices of materials, color combination and placements, and product positioning.

  • @sneakers_guy5488
    @sneakers_guy5488 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    To respond to your question about why certain sneakers fall off so quickly while others like the Jordan 1 and 4 stay relevant, I think it comes down to which sneakers the sneakers community actually supports and think are cool. The New Balance 550s seem like more of a mainstream fashion trend that the casuals (people who don't follow sneakers or fashion all that much) caught on to. The same thing will happen to the Sambas to some degree. They'll have their peak and then decline which will leave true fans or people who play footy as the ones who keep wearing them past their trend peak. At least, that's my opinion, I may be wrong though:P

    I just got some Birkenstock Bostons and your video on them was the first I really heard about them. I have also gotten into raw selvage denim recently and while I see some people with selvage denim on from time to time in my city I have never seen a pair of Birkenstock Bostons on anyone outside of the internet. I had never heard of Mohair until this video and it does not seem like my thing. I recognize the New Balance 550 trend but I never really liked the look of them. In this hyper connected world I feel like trends on really matter for a companies sales figures. For us humble mortals just wear what you like.

    Ive been watching your videos for a while and i love them! I just wanted to comment on your statements „at least in america when you wear a clean 550 youd still be more fashionable than the great majority of people“ because i think this goes for every other country as well. I feel like people have this image of europeans or asians to be insanely fashionable and stylish but tbh? Most people just dress very average in a sweater and jeans. Yes there are fashion mekkas such as Paris or London but even there most people dress very normal :) ive been to various european cities and thats what ive seen so far (im german myself).

  • @user-cj3up7ry4y

    i think I can answer the Jordan 1 and Jordan 4 timelessness question and rebuttal it with another example.
    Chucks, Chuck freakin' Taylors man; they've always been in style no matter what. It's a classic silhouette you have other companies constantly trying to copy it (and they do) but nothing comes close to the original Converse.
    Same thing with the Jordan 1's and 4's they're huge, they have a very distinct silhouette endless color options so the possibilities are endless.
    The thing about these three shoes is that they're also versatile and tend to end up in a lot of Capsule Wardrobes because you can pretty much match Chucks, 1's and 4's with any outfit, even freakin' suits.

    everyone is just so chronically online, you'd swear that arcteryx is over worn and a dying trend but when you go outside you wouldn't see a single person wearing it. We live in an age that we believe what is online is our own reality but honestly we shouldn't care. If you've been inspired by an online trend and you like an item, then wear it. If you have an item of clothing that you like, wear it no matter it's current online trend. This is in no way a shot at drew, he's simply made a video about online trends that are dying and he's 100% right with all of them, love the videos.

    I think mohair trend start when a lot of hand-made brand specially hand-knitted or crochet made hats and outfits with mohair yarns(example brand is Nong Rak, which specify hand-knitted mohair garments) and mohair is itchy when you wash and take care them wrong, mohair usually need to hand-wash with Shampoo and Hair conditioner or a mild laundry detergent and if you want to iron it, instead steam it.
