They look especially amazing when fogged up with footsweat

at first glance i did think the blue line above the toes was a high water mark

heinous

smh ppl always disrespecting the kix thread

anyway was looking for some basketball shoes and kinda digging these 2nd tier kobes

not sure i cld actually wear kobes because of kobes but mb i cld, also u cant tell here but they have a kinda huge tongue with his huge dumb logo on it

i have never owned any flyknit

i like flyknit for walking around and like going to the store but not sure what i would think of it for actually playing

i think theyre more structured than the typical flyknit thats just like sitting on top of yr foot

I’m kind of in love with these but struggling to decide which colorway

Generally speaking I feel like Adidas has been crushing it wrt design

Got these. On a whim. But I’m happy with’em.

tite

think ive worn them once lol

Sh1t am I gonna pay $180 for some fscking sneakers???

It’s crazy how many people I see wearing Common Projects in the wild these days. (I work in SF.)

lol that's funny -- I spotted a pair in my suburban office building and was like "wow, they made it out here"

i just buy pleather keds from the medical uniform supply store and stencil some gold numbers on them. fashion hack

These would be really cool if not for the stupid text on the back.

ugh. That's like the fourth time lately I see a shoe I like that turns out to have some stupid star wars tie in.

I wanted to buy a pair of sneakers for the dry months, especially that looks good with light colored chinos and shorts, but I'm stumped. I hate logos, so I'm kind of screwed right off the bat, but I can tolerate plain minimally labeled stuff like Chucks and some Vans. I usually end up just getting white Chuck Taylor 70s, and I'll probably end up doing the same this year.

Anybody have any recent experiences with Greats? I'm liking these, but for $119 + shipping, they'd better be more durable than your average pair of Vans.

tretorns?

white vans

fwiw there are plenty vans looking skate shoes thatre built much more durable for skateboarding, not sure what they are off the top of my head but im sure u cld track some down

i personally enjoy the process of trashing a pair of vans over the summer

i wash and bleach them a bunch so they get all soft and worn in

then i keep last years pair on backup for when im washing this years

any of the pro Vans are infinitely more durable than the regular ones

to a slightly suspicious degree in fact...

lol

not familiar with greats; may be a nice shoe in leather but eff paying $100+ for a knit sneaker that is by definition not durable.

damn authentic pro is only $10 more than the regular ones https://www.vans.com/shop/authentic-pro-q0dqlz

you'll thank yourself for the ultracush too

kinda feel like its against the spirit of vans but i might give em a shot once the sun comes back

some of these OPP sneakers are v nice

i literally had never heard of this brand until i got a promoted instagram post for them like 5 hours ago

lmao that’s where i got it from!!

i did see some about a year ago in lisbon. It was on a tram. no idea what the model was but i was pretty taken with them, they seemed understated but somehow a little different. I craned my neck around to try and see the brand on the tongue through everyone else’s ankles.

i think they're too dressed-up/euro for my current style but they would definitely catch my eye if i saw them around
