i've never owned shoes like that
i tend toward more trad things like stan smiths, tennis classics, retro new balances, court force hi, clarks, etc
i had some prestos a long time ago but it never felt enough like wearing shoes to me

buy chuck taylors in american flag print
― the late great, Friday, 23 March 2018 01:52 (six years ago) link
ok ok
I would get those if they were on sale in my size. the thing about most of my chuck craziness is I wait it out and if they are too cool to still be available in US M 9.5 / 10 by the time they get a price cut, then I was never cool enough to rock them anyway (pour one out for those nasa apollo limited edition chuck 70s)
― El Tomboto, Friday, 23 March 2018 01:56 (six years ago) link
lol
tlg from the little i know about your style i feel like you could make those work. i don't think they're as far from something like stans as one might initially think. tho there are a lot of gis results of people wearing them with selvedge which is a bridge too far for me.

thank you tom for the kind words about my beard attitude and yellow tees (which sadly have pretty much fallen out of the rotation hadnt thought about them in a while rip) feel like i shd clarify tho that i wasnt dragging you for being a square i was doing it because you were antagonizing those of us who love style (shopping), which i know this is ilx and what do i expect but like when i started this thread i imagined it as a beautiful gallery of fire kix that wasnt full of people being all omg those r ugly or sneakers look weird on my feet cant wear em or whatre some good mid priced sneakers i can wear to the office, lol

i really dislike the 97s - and how popular they are with the kids now - but love the 95s.

I'm still stuck on campus, gazelles, superstar II tbh and I only buy men's because the women's versions are usually white or that horrible salmon/coral pink.
To Tom's point, I did flinch when the thread first opened and landed on those moccasins(?).
