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

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"

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

^ 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

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.
