What's up family?
It's your boy Nate a.k.a TabaskoSweet and you're watching Cheap Thrills.
You already know what it is?
Guess you won't be needing me then.
[MUSIC]
I'm just [BLEEP] with you family.
And, I don't know about you, family, but
your boy has been straight dying over some of these shoe drops lately.
Today, I'm going to be showing you how to make the most sus kicks of all,
that new Vettements Reebok collab.
So you too can look sus but also lit.
Shoe drops lately have me wondering if all these designers are having a contest to
see who control us the hardest.
Now let's look at our first offender, Balenciaga, with the Triple S.
Now these MF's are pretty much guaranteed to have fools asking,
if they can copy your math homework.
These have made cameos on ASAP Ferg and
more than one of the Migos, believe it or not.
Now personally, I think these bang, but
these bad boys can cost more than $2,500 on resale.
You can miss me with that, family.
[SOUND] Nah.
Next up, we've got the Easy Does It Rav 500s.
Kanye's take on the ugly shoe will have your feet looking like the damn
Michelin Man.
[SOUND] Very puffy, my guy.
Pro tip, never try to buy weed in these things.
Very narc wave.
Hey, you got some chronic I can buy?
I swear I'm not a cop.
So far, only Yeezy and his wifey Kim K have been spotted in these.
Very rare.
I still think the Vetements Reebok Sock Runner is the winner of the ugly shoe
contest y'all.
Clocking in at around 900 bones,
sneaker heads are shook by these new kicks that are arguably more sock than sneak.
Vetements just debuted these bad boys at their pop up on Hong Kong, so
they aren't as played out yet as the super similar Balenciaga Speed Runners.
Now, I don't know about you, family, but
your boy did not invest in BitCoin in 2012.
So I'm not trying to drop $900 on some kicks.
So what do you say, family?
Let's cop these socks, without wasting all our guap.
So here's what you're gonna need.
Some red and black paint, some sneakers with white soles in your size,
hot glue gun with an extendo clip [SOUND] your trusty blade,
a long piece of cardboard, a pair of grey socks.
All right, it's Liddy, and
our first step is going to be to do a little surgery on your generic sneakers.
We're gonna use our blade to separate the shoe from the sole.
As always, be very careful when you're getting cutty.
[SOUND]
[MUSIC]
And I'm just following the line on the edge of the sole.
And if you're having trouble finding the right sole,
you can always spot these on the realist real ones.
The senior citizens of the Carrows in Glendale.
[MUSIC]
Very clean.
And once you're done with your first shoe, repeat the process on the other one.
Make sure to clean up the edges, family.
Precision is key.
Now we can move these aside and get cracking on our socks,
which are probably the most crucial part of the piece.
Now the real ones have two black stripes near the top.
They're spaced about an inch and a half apart,
kind of like an old school tube sock.
We're going to color in these stripes with our black paint.
Protip, cut a strip of cardboard to put inside your sock, so
that you have a flat surface to paint on.
[MUSIC]
Now we're gonna put in our first stripe about two fingers from the top.
[MUSIC]
Now that we're done with our top stripe,
we're gonna put in our bottom one about three fingers down.
[MUSIC]
Now let's bring out our heater to go speed mode on this and get it dry already.
[MUSIC]
All right, now that that's technically dry, flip it over and
repeat the stripes on the back.
Make sure you hit the sides too, so that your stripes go all the way around.
[MUSIC]
Once you're done with the first sock, repeat on the other one.
Very clean.
Now, we have to draw on our Vetements logo on the front, in between the two stripes.
We're gonna use our red paint for this part.
Lucky for us, their logo is hella easy, and remember all caps, family.
[MUSIC]
And once the logo is locked in on both socks, hit it with your heater again.
[MUSIC]
Whew, serious heat.
[SOUND] Tight.
Now the cool thing about these shoes is you'll never put them on the wrong foot
because they are labeled left and right on the toes.
Good looking out Vetements.
We're gonna put in that text now with our black paint.
Now, you'll know your text is the right direction if it's right side up
when you're putting your shoes on.
Flipped text?
Dead giveaway.
[MUSIC]
Very clean.
Now we're ready to attach our sock to our sneaker base.
Now for this step, we're going to take our inserts from our cut up shoe and
put them in the sock.
Now make sure you put the right insert in the right sock and
the left one you get it.
[MUSIC]
Now this should take about nine hours.
[SOUND] All right.
Now we're ready to start gluing our socks into our soles.
For this step, we're gonna use a [BLEEP] load of hot glue, so
it's best to apply it in sections.
Now I'm gonna start by filling in the heel with hot glue.
Glop it up, family.
Now you're gonna need a ton of glue, so go full dummy on this.
[MUSIC]
Now you wanna let this completely dry before moving on to our arch.
So while you're waiting for that, hit the other one.
[MUSIC]
Make sure you have some extra clips on standby.
[SOUND]
[MUSIC]
Tight, now that our heel's dry we can hit the middle part, our arch.
[MUSIC]
Now once again, while we wait for that to dry, repeat on the other shoe.
[MUSIC]
Raindrop shoe sock.
Tabasko hitting it with the glue Glock.
[SOUND]
[MUSIC]
All right last clip family, kill shot.
[MUSIC]
And there you have it, the legendary Vetement Reebok Sock Runner.
These are pretty ideal for
laundry day because you don't even need a pair of clean socks.
This one's for all you foot freaks out there.
Do not screenshot or you'll get blocked.
[BLEEP] off Wiki feets.
[MUSIC]
Hella lightweight and futuristic as [BEEP].
I'm 37 teen [BEEP] family.
Let's take these bad boys out for a test drive.
[MUSIC]
All right, these things have got your boy feeling very athletic.
I am about to clock some serious speeds, family.
You timing me?
All right, try to keep up.
[MUSIC]
Speed, agility, endurance, precision.
[MUSIC]
Damn, these things got your boy feeling like he's saying bull.
Sports gang.
Anyway, this has been Sweet on the Street, over and out.
Back to my room.
So, I think that went as expected, go ahead and
tell me in the comments what you think the ugliest sneaker of the year was.
And make sure to @ someone who is crazy enough to wear these Johns.
As always, stay boosted, Cheap Thrills fan.
Let's get this money, 2018.
Sup family, y'all are still here?
That video was very clean.
Now go ahead and get some [BLEEP] off your chest in those comments.
