 Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor's advice to sneakerheads cracks up the internet

Harsh Varrdhan often takes to Instagram reels and shares videos of him unboxing sneakers. However, on Monday afternoon the actor shared his two cents on people buying fake sneakers he took to his Instagram stories and advised people to buy only authentic sneakers.

He wrote, "Don't know who needs to hear this but pls stop wearing fake sneakers .. if you have a low/ moderate budget there's plenty of great options out there. Converse vans basic air force s etc .. if someone gets you a gift and they happen to be inauthentic u can pass them onto someone else who doesn't know what they are and would be happy to wear .. but if you're buying your own please do your due diligence .. buy from trusted sellers.."

He continued in the next story, "Also really boys who look into how they dress and invest well in what they wear .. again doesn't have to be expensive tons and tons of cheap options out there . but no point of wearing a really expensive pair of shoes if you don't know how to put the rest of it together tbh .. it's supposed to say something about you .. your tastes and preferences .. there's information everywhere and access dont be lazy .. look into it and learn it can be a lot of fun .. when we talk about the culture be it sneaker culture or street ir whatever its not about clout it's about your own individuality uniqueness and about how your outfit and choices speak for you and what they represent."
