Actually I take it back, the more I look at the blue the more I like it
― calstars, Friday, 30 June 2023 17:10 (one year ago) link
I like the green except for the puffiness. Voting blue.

tracer, my son (age 5) wears the green ones (velcro version) so that's my vote.

This thread inspired me to get a pair of the Saucony jazz in green/light green. They are intensely bright, I love them.

I like those a lot. Never considered Saucony. They look very much like summer trainers though - I take it they're not particularly waterproof?

suicoke is like visvim, really good choice if you are a small japanese person who owns an art gallery and has $$$$$
― the late great, Thursday, 17 August 2023 00:14 (one year ago) link
as someone who is taller than 6’ and dresses “more masculine / less cute” than yr average japanese fashion person i find suicoke / visvim stuff looks not quite right on my feet, the proportions get messed up as your feet get bigger slowly and your legs get longer
instead i got birkenstock kyoto, similarly for visvims i buy non japanese shoes of similar qualities, like sebago boat shoes or quoddy mocs etc. actually if you look at the footwear collabs western workwear brands like engineered garments do they hit that vibe but more tailored for western body proportions
if you have size 6-9 feet you can comfortably ignore my advice i think
― the late great, Thursday, 17 August 2023 00:19 (one year ago) link
i meant to say your legs get longer faster than your feet get bigger, so not only do things like visvim FBTs start to look silly as your feet get longer (by turning even more into pointy genie shoes) they look even sillier because size 12 fbts on a 6’ or taller person somehow end up daintier looking than they do as size 7s on a 5’ tall person

having lustful feelings about various colourful Flower Mountain models, though i rarely move far from a few variants of black canvas sneakers
― ionjusit (P. Flick), Thursday, 17 August 2023 14:12 (one year ago) link
oh yeah 100% i was actually looking at their universal work collaboration awhile back, ultimately passed because they look pretty fragile, but good example of what i meant by "footwear collabs *by) western workwear brands"
https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/universal-works-x-flower-mountain-113953667.html
i believe there is a 2023 collaboration currently going on too

I keep getting Sabah shoes advertised to me and I have to admit I like them - got 'im!! - but I go to their website and they cost a fucking fortune, particularly once you clock that they are just gentrified Turkish street shoes so i look around and there are a couple of companies that make essentially the exact same thing for far less. Anyway I just got a pair of black slip-ons from Atlantis and i love them - https://www.atlantishandmade.com
― Humanitarian Pause (Tracer Hand), Friday, 16 February 2024 15:46 (seven months ago) link
^ they have a dubious "grounding" thing going on where they will add a.... copper rivet....? to the bottom of the shoe but i got a rubber sole without a rivet
― Humanitarian Pause (Tracer Hand), Friday, 16 February 2024 15:47 (seven months ago) link
have fun not being grounded

are you actually wearing them barefoot as the website implies y/n
― ɥɯ ︵ (°□°) (mh), Friday, 16 February 2024 15:57 (seven months ago) link
i tried both ways and they stay on either way. will probably save them for sunnier climes/times so no socks is probably how i’ll wear them
― Humanitarian Pause (Tracer Hand), Friday, 16 February 2024 16:17 (seven months ago) link

recently got my first pair of pumas (don't even know is that a solid brand??) in a sort of low rise beige that i have to wear sock-less bc they ran a bit small, but they hold up well without socks and are comfortable to bounce around in without caring if they get scuffed.
― Swen, Monday, 26 February 2024 05:04 (seven months ago) link
I've had some nice Pumas over the years. Any major brand is going to probably be fine if it's a sneaker that they've been making for a while, imo.
