Sneakerheads would understand the pain of explaining the reason behind their passion for a pair of shoes to their devout parents. The people who have for the longest time considered Bata shoes the epitome of shoemaking obviously find it hard to understand the math behind spending thousands and even lakhs on a pair of shoes.
Something of the sort was captured in the puzzled reaction of a desi dad in a recent viral video. Every desi child knows how strict and matter-of-fact an Indian dad can get.
So, what happens when he finds out that you spent lakhs on a funky pair of shoes? What would his reaction be when he finds out that months’ worth of savings have gone to waste after his son’s craze for shoes?

Desi Dad Reacts To His Son’s Sneakers Worth Rs 4 Lakh
Instagram
Well, our first guest would be the usual scolding and even a disappointed dad’s sigh. However, from the looks of it, we don’t have to use our brain cells to imagine a possible reaction when a brave soldier has gone and taken the dangerous task upon himself.
Lifestyle vlogger and public figure Yadupriyam Mehta shared a short clip in which he boasted about his new sneaker purchase in front of his dad. The desi dad picked up a shoe from the box and inspected it.
At first, the dad looked pleased. He mentioned how his son had wanted to buy these sneakers for a while. However, his smile fell the minute he heard what the sneakers were worth. It was as if the vlogger had unleashed a bomb on his dad when he told him that sneakers were worth Rs 4 lakh.
The father was spellbound upon hearing the price of the shoes. His face contorted in disbelief as he tried to confirm what he had heard, hoping that he had misheard the amount his son spent on a pair of shoes. But to his dismay, the sneakers were indeed unbelievably expensive. Once he confirmed the price, he packed away the shoe he was holding and could do nothing but join his hands together in surrender.

The pair shown in the video were Nike SB Dunks. These shoes are so extraordinarily expensive because of supply, demand, publicity, and partnerships. Sneakerheads are ready to pay outrageous amounts to possess these shoes, which drives up the price of the market even more. Believe it or not, reselling Nike SB Dunk Supreme Stars costs 630% more than buying them new.
