They're incredibly comfortable. I get compliments on mine from people of all ages. Timeless.

[@OngoingMission247]

So versatile and cost per wear is amazing when you use it as a daily driver. leather gets better over time/unique to yourself. Timeless sneakers. Have a couple of pairs I still wear since 2014 and looks so good still and I haven't cleaned them not once. Been through special occasions, traveling to dusty farms lol

[@mikgenta]

Incredible shoe. I’ve had my original pair since 2017-18 and they’re still going strong after consistent wear

[@OngoingMission247]

100% agree!

[@andyfuuu]

Just discovered your channel when searching for guidi reviews!! Love your vids! Super informative and relaxing!

[@poltergeist_yt]

thank you so much!

[@lil_Perro]

I've had them on my wishlist for almost a year now, and this video is what made me decide to finally pull the trigger.
Very nice video btw, this level of script, production and audio are what I'd expect from a youtuber with 50k subs at the very least.

[@poltergeist_yt]

thank you for the kind words! i hope you enjoy your pair!

[@empty2k]

i bought my first pair of margielas online they were the faux fur replica i’m so hyped to receive em !!

[@poltergeist_yt]

congrats! :)

[@santanagee74]

So do they make there own shoes replica or is that just the name im super confused

[@poltergeist_yt]

it’s just the name. it’s a “replica” of a german army trainer from the 70’s but an authentic margiela product featured in the video

[@richardrodrigues5447]

Great video!👍🏼

[@poltergeist_yt]

thanks!

[@yves-marc]

these are truly timeless

[@poltergeist_yt]

facts

[@7sage469]

my plain gats are arriving in a couple days and was wondering if you had any suggestions for how to take care of/clean them if they do get dirty? They'll be my daily driver but obviously I wouldn't beat them up in shitty/raining weather. Thank you! Keep up the great work

[@poltergeist_yt]

if you want you can use some kind of water repellent spray on the suede, but the leather itself is pretty easy to keep clean. thanks for watching!

[@danlo5]

The Replicas are my most versatile and comfortable shoes, which explains why they're also my most frequently worn shoes. My first pair of GATs, I must've worn them every day, and this was in NYC so they took a real beating. Still lasted me a good 6-7 years. In retrospect, I do wish that I took better care and babied them a little more, seeing how they're $500 shoes!

[@Say2Cups]

These literally my favorite shoes fr but the black colorway

[@poltergeist_yt]

black with the coffee brown suede?

[@whorechatas]

Great and thorough review man. If I’m at 8.5 in Nike, NB, etc. should I go for a 41.5? Or should I do a 41 or 42? Keep seeing mixed sizing reviews.

[@poltergeist_yt]

i would go true to size 41.5

[@octob3rr]

Same for all GATs silhouette (Adidas Samba, Adidas/Novesta GAT, Bermuda) in general, they are quite narrow. I went 10.5 for the Margiela GATs and couldn't be happier. I'm a 10.5 in Nike as well

[@bennetjohn1896]

Thanks for the information, i might have to scoop a pair of plain gat from MM for my birthday 😂

[@poltergeist_yt]

great choice and happy birthday!

[@nrifichdbebvwgshi1975]

You got a grailed or somewhere where you sell clothes?

[@alxxxx132]

Commenting a bit late, do they have any foot support ? They seem incredibly flat but I love the look of them so Im wondering if I should get them.

[@highvisibilityraincoat]

Not rly but u could throw some in there

[@lonewolf5969]

How much do plain costed you?

[@octob3rr]

Please let me know how you keeping your paint splatter clean as I have the same pair, suede eraser do nothing to these bae and they're nubuck-ish kinda material (I wished they're full-grain leather tho, easier maintain)

[@poltergeist_yt]

i hate to say this but i keep them clean by not getting them dirty lol. one of the downsides of the paint splatter

[@placeholder3863]

dawg, you bought a shoe made to be dirty out of the box, let it accumulate that character :)

[@octob3rr]

@@placeholder3863 do you called a painting with paint spray on it dirty? because it's definitely not. The shoes was paint splatter, not distressed nor vintage treated, hence why I was asking for cleaning options.

[@burgersuperking]

What do you mean by TTS? True to size in dress shoes? I'm 41 in dress shoes, and 42 in Adidas and Nikes, which size should I choose?

[@poltergeist_yt]

true to size being the size i most commonly wear in shoes, and believing the sizing to be accurate. based on what you are saying it sounds like you should go for a 42.

[@burgersuperking]

@@poltergeist_yt thanks

The background music is Brian eno right? Swear i recognize it.

[@elijahkadish231]

absolute shout of a song tho 👍👍

[@Michael-jh2xv]

i’m a 10.5 i’m shoes in general, but they only have a 43 and a 44. should i get a 43 or a 44?

[@highvisibilityraincoat]

Round up

[@alecpierce9391]

What size should I get??? I’m a 9.5 US!

[@poltergeist_yt]

if i remember they don’t produce these in half sizes - you can either go down to size 9 and wear them without insoles, or go up to size 10 and hope that works well enough for you

[@WesNavy]

How did you get them for $300 they go over $500

[@poltergeist_yt]

[@user-ee8en3sm2k]
