Man embarrassed at groove for wearing fake Air Force shoes, Mzansi defends him: “Childish behaviour”

Looking back at the same story, Briefly News published that an unidentified man was called out at groove for wearing fake Nike Air Force shoes.

South Africans are frustrated on behalf of the man as they feel it was unnecessary to bring the cost of his clothes into the picture. Many locals believe that one should be able to spend their money as they please and if they purchase shoes that are not from an official store, so be it.

A video of the incident was shared on Twitter and has gained over 8 000 views.

The caption of the post did not help the guy at all, it read:

"Bruh went to the groove with a fake Air Force and got busted."
