Some of these look cool as <objects> but I can't get my head around wearing them on my feet.

in what situation would you wear those ugly shoes lol

playing an undercover cop in a fl high school on a low budget sitcom

While bullying Kevin from Home Alone

friendship ended with new balance

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.

my new balances are depreciating really fast :-(

I feel bad for all the widefootman

those NMDs dayo liked drop saturday: https://twitter.com/hanonshop/status/799031887306117128

best of luck though, every time i tried to buy NMDs i ended up grasping air

I like this color scheme

chukka superstar

i kind of wish i was a sneaker guy because it seems more modern and exciting but given the choice i almost always wear my red wing boots.

Really I don't know...white is so attention grabby

if u dont f w white kicks... u might not be a good sneaker boy

btw those white vans have the scotch guard treatment + insulation so u cn wear them like boots :}

vans have no arch support

doesn't arch support kill your arches? ...... or something?

many believe arch support is bad

idk ive worn vans a lot and also shoes w arch support and my arches are still there doin their thing

A lot of designed-in arch support is generic and can be bad for you. If you need arch support get real inserts after consulting with a doctor! That's what I'm saying.

couple times i got shoes where their inserts didnt line up good w my arches and it caused insane pain but then i replaced the inserts and it was fine, the crazy thing is they were both white sneaks w light blue details

tbf that seems a bit like me saying "the crazy thing is they were both chuck taylor all-stars"

those are the only two pairs of sneakers ive ever had in that color scheme! i think

on the other hand i have owned more than ten pairs of white vans

Y'all should wear superfeet insoles

white is less attention-seeking than other colours imo. like why another colour?

i bought those ones lagoon posted in the last pic a few months back but the order got lost in delivery.

been considering these:

Has Nike cleaned up their act at all in regards to child labor, running sweatshops, etc? I've never once seen this issue addressed here which is really weird considering ILX's general wokeness.

figure that ship has sailed once everybody was okay with using iphones and other electronics made in asia

there is no ethical consumption under late capitalism everyone knows duh [covers self in blood diamonds]

anyway yeah its my understanding that sweatshops and child labor while not unheard of are generally passe what you have now is more workers facing vast hypermodern faceless air conditioned corporate dystopia

Dwyane Wade Nikes look like something my four-year-old would wear except with a pic of princess jasmine

Anyone ever get a pair of these?

Yeah I had a pair of black leather hi-tops. Loved them but they are gone now.

I got a new wardrobe from IKEA with the customizable sliding thingamajiggers and now I have room for 36 pairs of sneakers and affiliated nonsense. I do not have that many yet. And I need to give probably a couple of these pairs a good funeral soon.

i must admit that with the exception of the bottom left rack yr kicks are not to my taste (though i used to wear those yellow joints in 3rd grade) but i bow down to your shelving system

Yes, they are not for everyone. if there had been a str8 fire beautiful shelves thread I would have posted it there

just out of curiosity what's the name of that shelving system

oh yeah duh that would be helpful

it's the PAX wardrobe system and those shelves are the KOMPLEMENT pull-out shoe shelves - USA IKEA page is here http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00257463/

Are those Chuck IIs in hi top white? If so, how do u like 'em?
