I am considering buying a pair of snakeskin stas off of Pondon, but before I do I just would like to know if they crease as much or less compared to patent leather as well as if they get scuffed as easily. Also, is it harder to clean? thanks in advance.

patent leather is more recognized with bape. more fake patent leather than fake snakeskin.

CLEANING: same way you would clean a pair of Jordans. i use that $5 footlocker spray cleaner

i think patent leather is the easier to clean but more crease

and snakeskin harder to clean but doesnt crease as much


and well if u scuff a pair of patents. itll leave a black or brown mark

Snakeskins for me. More rare and harder to fape. Also the real ultra rare suede ones.
