This is not a new style, they were out many years ago and they along with the GAT replicas were the only MMM sneakers out basically, with maybe one other style per season. These ones never held value and always ended up on yoox or ebay or whatever. They got sold for like $60-100 by that time.

Disagree on the versatile question. These (at least for me) is in the same category as Rick dunks, extremely hard to pull off and with a hugh chance of looking like a idiot. If you already have a good shoe collection that covers what you need, and are absolutely positive that you can pull these off you may want to consider them. Dont buy into hype, dont buy because someone else you have seen may have attempted to pull these off, i repeat the chance of looking like a idiot is big.

IDK Knisse...I disagree. I think you have a much higher chance of looking stupid in these crazy Balenciagas or the high top different patent colored Lanvins. Due to the fact that they're only black and white and are pretty much leather and rubber, I don't really think they're 'out there'.

Sorry but I got to disagree with that, not just anyone can wear DBSS even if it is all black. DBSS are huge and bulky, I remember a few months back there was even a discussion here on how difficult to find jeans to go with it, there was maybe 1-2 looks where it looked good and that was it. I mean come on, even Unc is selling his because he feels he can't pull it off, Synth even rarely wears his (I know it's not blk & wht but he's one of the very few who has enough swag to pull them off).

At least with the Balenciaga and Lanvin, it's pretty low-profile, somewhat sleek silhouette, it can be pulled off easier because you can just cover up the top with your pants/jeans, you won't be able to do that with DBSS. And if you are short, you might as well forget about it because it'll make your legs look short.
