It's just me I guess but I can't get behind this whole style..they just don't look cool

I don't get this whole style moment of sneakers being a couple of ounces of styrofoam and a synthetic mesh upper and being hundreds of dollars. It could not be any clearer that the shoe cost about $1.67 to make.

ya agreed, i can't get w/ these
― marcos, Tuesday, 8 November 2016 15:04 (seven years ago) link
i like them and think it's on trend and fits in with the acceptance of sweats and joggers as every day wear

i like this style of shoe but it doesnt fit the shape of my foot which is sad

dayo otm. thats the key. these don't work with standard cut jeans.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 8 November 2016 16:50 (seven years ago) link
fairly slim jeans and they look fine. i also think they are prob more durable than a lot of other sneakers, not less. roshe runs definitely were and i have a pair of adidas tubular which are indestructible.

i have these ones

i like the new ones (nova) a little more than the pair i have but they are too similar for me to actually buy them.

The ultra boost uncaged look weird in isolation but cool on feet imo assuming you're wearing joggers or tapered sweats
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 10 November 2016 00:44 (seven years ago) link
Did anyone talk about NMDs around here? I went for boost uncaged even tho they're more expensive bc you're actually able to find them new, NMDs are slightly cheaper but sell out instantly.
As far as price the notion is you're paying for design & comfort & the ultra boosts are definitely super comfortable

Can anyone id Helen Dewitt's running shoes in this pic? I think they look cool but it might just be b/c she's wielding a chainsaw

That said it feels impossible to get any of the good ones without spending north of $250

Some of these look cool as <objects> but I can't get my head around wearing them on my feet.
― wanderly braggin' (seandalai), Saturday, 12 November 2016 15:13 (seven years ago) link
yes wrapping yr head around yr feet does sound uncomfortable
― lag∞n, Saturday, 12 November 2016 15:16 (seven years ago) link
don't like those nmds at all. i only really liked the plain white or black ones but overall think ultraboosts are nicer.
i think as a few people have said, these mould a lot better to feet and look better on than in a photo.

NBs are so divisive. I have always liked them. But a friend described them as "shoes cops wear when they're off duty" and I had to concede.
