When you go to Canal Street in Manhattan, NYC (or a similar knockoff hotspot) and load up on all the fake Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Supreme, Fendi, Moncler, Stone Island, Hermes, Chanel, Rolex, Apple, and other designer/expensive stuff you could ever want. Basically a field day for people who want to have "drip" and look expensive but don't have the assets to drop bands on clothing and accessories.
Jordan: Hey Mark, check out my new Rolex, Moncler, and AirPods that I got yesterday!

Mark: Cool, but don't you work at the $1 pizza place?

Jordan: Yeah but I've been saving for a while

Mark: Okay, but your Moncler patch doesn't scan and your AirPods literally say "Ze Blutoothe devise haz beeen cunnected" like those tiktoks. Seems like you got yourself the Canal Street Special. You don't need to be doing this just stop trying to fit in so much and worry about more important things such as friends and actually making more money.

Get the Canal Street Special mug.
Something you bought that isn't directly from the brand/designer; a knock-off.
Friend #1: I love your Uggs. Did you buy them on the UggAustralia website?

Friend #2: Nah, they were a canal street special.
