ALIFE 2009 Fall The Toxic & The Shepard Sneakers | Hypebeast

Gee whiz everyone! Which shoe does it look like the Alife chukka’s mostly resemble?

These, which have both the rubber sole, and classic design.

Or these, the shoe with the classic design, which they didn’t originate (so called intellectuals, do your research), and the crepe sole?

Decisions, decisions, I’m too slow to make a logical selection, so I’ll let our distinguished panel choose…………….I guess while we’re at it, we can safely say Lee ripped off Levi’s , and Wrangler offed Levi’s and Lee; since, according to logic of those in this topic, small changes don’t matter. And all those Japanese denim brands are definitely biters.

A brand can be influenced by another, but to straight up copy their shit and stamp your own sole on it is not inspiration. The silhouette is the exact same, the heel tab stitching in the back is the exact same. That is more than just influence. That is plagiarism.

And that should be “butt hurt”. I don’t want to confuse you.

I’m the retard Mr. “tastless”? LMFAO! You act like no brand has ever been influenced by another. You’re in here, defending a brand that admittedly got its design from another brand! GASP. Bet you didn’t realize that, eh Einstein? Clarks got its influence from someone else. They aren’t the originator of the desert boot.

What, you butt heart because everyone ain’t on Clarks tip like you?

are you people stupid? u have no clue how this is designed or built. hi haters! bye haters!

“Kingala, you dig the fu*k out of these because you are a tastless ass”

What, you mad because someone else likes the shoes, and doesn’t agree with your hatred? Hell, you can’t even explain what’s wrong with the shoes.

The only real bash anyone can concoct against this shoe is that it looks like something else; like brands don’t copy one another. The only thing these shoes resemble are Common Projects. I don’t know WTF anyone would compare them to clarks.

Haha, you don’t even know which Clark’s product you’re talking about. Keep sluggin’. This is a Desert Boot, not a Wallabee. And maybe the people at Alife LA don’t like you ’cause you’re a mook. I’ve never had bad dealings with anyone at Alife Van, I even went with my mom once and wasn’t looked down upon.

well come on, let’s be real here.

it takes absolutely NO talent at all to trace a wallee in illustrator, strip it down, put on their outsole and call it a day.

thats just shows the artistic output coming from this company. All they do is place woven hang tags on shoes. and then when you creep into their store all the douchebags that work there act like they are just the coolest people on earth. i hate that store(the LA one.)

Acting like DBs are a one brand item is nutto. Glad the soles are toned down, but that black leather looks gross in that flick, especially paired with the white sole. I think the next Chuck drop will be something worth grabbing, given the progression.
