>Balenciaga kicks and 99c bowls of instant noodles do make an odd combo...

I don't know anything about shoes, but I looked up Balenciaga and those have to be some of the ugliest shoes I have ever seen.

Wow you're right, had heard this brand mentioned in music or pop culture but seeing it is making me feel really out of touch. I wouldn't wear these for free, let alone pay $1000. I guess i just don't understand fashion
To be fair, if I go up a level and look at the other sneakers they sell, they do have some models that aren't as ugly as that.

Still, nothing I'd want to buy for 1/10th their asking price, though.

Yeah I did pick the worst of the bunch, but in my defense it was the most prominently featured and like you said the others aren't that much better.
