  the same can be applied to the guccis, the pradas and so on.

  Branding VS materials.

  So how?

  So how?

  at least their slippers are made of leather.. and their brand names are not even comparable..

  ask anybody on the street and they'll know what are the guccis, pradas, lvs and so on..

  havianas is like only catered towards the teenagers..so no comparison whatsoever..

  For me, i will not understand what is the fuss about those so-called "branded" goods, esp when it comes to wallets and bags.

   

  I am having this "bags are just bags, wallets are just wallets" why go to the extent of spending so much on them when one can get a comparable quality with a cheaper price.

   

  I will go for the $10 wallet compared to the $100 ones.

  I will go for the $30 bag compared to the $300 ones.

  and their cost price is like 2 bucks..just a damn piece of rubber that is so not user friendly when walking on slipper surfaces..

  for that kinda price, i rather get a dr martens, design nicer, more branded, more comfortable and better quality..

  cos it's the "in" thing.  new urban male stuffs always attract those sporty guys to buy.

  but i think it's too common.
