so you think that's their only intention?

No, I’m just kidding. I’m sure for people that want that extra snug feeling it’s great. But my personal opinion is that BOA is unnecessary, complicated and expensive. Bataleon Salsa Lace: €329 Bataleon Salsa BOA: €429. Someone, somewhere is having a laugh.

Anyone know the going rate for a Boa? Besides the actual manufacturing..

I don't know that actual cost, and I'm sure these numbers have gone up, but BOA used to have minimum MSRP for any product with BOA depending on the category.
single BOA with the recoil had to be at least $250, double BOA $300 is what I recall from when I first started in retail

Wow, that's some hot fucking garbage. I'm not sure how much more of this intentionally ugly crop top jacket/parachute pant trend I can take.

Doing things intentionally bad is part of the joke and the other part of the joke is pretending it's cool, which makes it cool if you know it's bad, but only because it's cool because if it wasn't cool it would be lame.... It's all irony making fun of itself being ironic. The ultimate idgaf... which also only exists for those who really really give a fuck, because no one else would want it.

I feel like it started in the early 2000s with moustaches and mullets and eagle t-shirts with lightning and it's just progressed to those big red foam boots, supreme making bricks, and whatever kanye (or any other modern rapper) does.

Edit: I know I'm Abe Simpson. "I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too..."

Except I did all those things 20 years ago and it's not scary, it's just skibbity toilet.... and I'm driving a safe reliable car thinking about food intolerances. We're at different places in life.

No, their intention is to keep progressing "tech" and try and convince you need it so you'll buy more shit. This has always been the way.

Definitely shorter than AK.
