Just got feet, don't got SHOES

cute! i love the heel.

i have put myself on a no new shoes plan because i am broke and irresponsible, so i will have to live vicariously through all of you.

Holy shit, bell, OMG you got those?? I cannot wait to see that.

i love those! i almost bought them, but the ankle tie was a terrible look for my short-ish legs.

i'm actually really mad about that, thinking about it again.

yeah i'm really excited...i'm not really a heel person, but the other chie mihara shoes i've tried on have all been really comfy. i didn't think i'd win them because i didn't even meet the reserve but the buyer sold them to me anyways yusssssss.

between this and the apc sale on saturday my economic stimulus money is trickling away...

<3 those shoes!

Lauren, I would have the exact same problem. Thick ankle straps not an option for me...but I look forward to seeing them on labs.

yes those are freakin great shoes

i think i was resisting starting this thread b/c i could prob spend all day posting pics of shoes i want

those shoes def hawt blabs

someone should buy these shoes. they will make you look like an italian movie!:

http://cache.net-a-porter.com/images/products/21577/21577_in_l.jpg

oh wow. swoon.

Did someone call me?

i know! they are 50% off at net-a-porter.com...which makes them $200.

xpost Laurel, buy them!!!

i love the white but would ruin them in 1 wearing.
if they were black and red omg i'd be tempted.

Too rich for my blood, ladies. As much as I love them (and have an all-red pair around the same shape & height).

where are the rich lady lurkers of ilx? i will find all this shoes for you!

oh, a shoe i mourn: stuart weitzman's "delovely" which used to be in pretty patent pink but now i can only find in more sensible colors:

That last but one pair of shoes remind me of these guys:

In a good way.

^^^ Further evidence - if it were needed - that i do not belong in I Love Style.

ohh bell your miharas are GREAT

srs cowboy requires srs cowboy boots

http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j171/mdanielwalter/324234.jpg

i was just looking through this paris vogue w/charlotte gainsbourg, she has boots like those. super cool

yes, want

can i admit that i have loved every shoe in the Jessica Simpson line that i've ever encountered in a store?

i know i said NO MORE CHEAP SHOES, but i couldn't resist getting a pair of these in bright royal blue:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/314-5hoXCfL._SL125_.jpg

Is it so wrong to really really really want these?

where are those from lauren? i love cheap shoes.

i still haven't worn my new heels! they look awesome though.

Or these?

You see how my shoe cabinet is filled with variations on the twin themes of red/white/black/silver and patent.

Wait, I take that back, these aren't patent.

Also when did Nine West become awesome?

bell, they're from amazon but the brand is soda. i just ordered 2 more pairs (charcoal and black) - eek.

Laurel, those Via Spigas are beautiful.

(I will get murdered if I link "Shoes" here, right?)

Sometimes Via Spiga is like WHOAH CRAZY EURO-SOMETHING and sometimes they amaze me.

(i love you but i will have no choice but to immediately ban you)
xpost

(;_;, okay)

i cannot buy cheap shoes :/ i don't even know if it's a psychological or physiological, it just never happens even if i give it a chance

xpost
lol
but srsly

I love you but you have chosen "Shoes".

haha, i think my main problem with shoes video is that it is not a kids in the hall sketch, not even a failed kids in the hall sketch, whatever it was sort of funny the first time i guess. no not really.

wait is this the kith sketch where bruce goes "i sell shoes!" and then kevin as satan goes "and so you always shall!"

if so then yeah, kind of funny a little bit but nothing spectacular.

I have become an adult! I went to the summer sales and picked up these bad boys. Then I panicked and spent over a hundred euro on Diesel trainers because I am a child trapped in a man's basement body

haha no, the 'shoes video' is this 'youtube phenomenon' that this la guy did ages ago where he plays a girl with a blond wig who loves shoes yaay and there is sort of a song. and shoes.

my favourite kith sketch related to shoes is the one where scott walks into a shoe store dressed in a trenchcoat and dave is the shoe salesman who has learned several english phrases phonetically but doesn't actually understand english. scott says 'just got feet don't got shoes' and beats dave up. it is pretty genius.

hahahahahaha i remember that one.

thinking bout flats/sandals.

i think the sacco pair are 20% off in the store at the moment.

i sort of like these, too http://saccoshoes.com/istar.asp?a=6&id=A105!LUIZA

are they made of wonder material? bc they don't necessarily look that supportive/comfy!

i did not find anything i really liked that was avail in the proper size at sacco :(

also tried on some clarks i liked at macy's but they did not have the proper size. argh!

in the mean time, these heels are insane!

lol those toe slippers Amazon description says
- Help relieve the stress and pain caused by your body

awesome!

Darn bodies.

I've picked up my shoe game this year, no lady office pumps that are only good if you don't have to walk anywhere, I go for purely mobile style now.

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/90/9b/35/909b3597dfca24100c6a159b783f6c15.jpg

And these, slightly less mobile but I couldn't resist.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41VlVnMjLkL._SX395_.jpg

And something very similar to these, which I've been kicking the shit out of since last fall (not Frye's, though--my pockets aren't that deep).

http://a2.zassets.com/images/z/3/3/9/2/1/6/3392162-p-MULTIVIEW.jpg

Basically what I'm saying is my wardrobe is full of peasant skirts and black leggings now, no pretensions to any kind of adult style except comfort. My shoes are all I have left.

orbit those first ones are DOPE AS FUCK OMG

They're like wearing little clouds on my feets too!

I got these recently which are actually pretty similar now that I think abt it!

http://i.imgur.com/loInwL4.png

They are!

Shoe fraternal twins!

Loving your mobile style, L!

I have no rad new shoes to share, though I did buy a cute pair of tiny-polkadot canvas keds for $20 to wear indoors at friends' houses or whatever in winter. might wear outdoors in summer though my walking ways just destroy this kind of shoe/slipper...

i bought some of these

http://cdn3.volusion.com/vlfwk.axyfd/v/vspfiles/photos/PAL-537-2.jpg

they are v comfortable

i like those first sneaks, laurel, and the boots are fly too!

i'm on the lookout for the perfect pair of boots - preferably biker style - and these are the current contenders:

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/ce/e6/1e/cee61ec35a47334c760131d0767b2284.jpg (these aren't really suitable for the purpose i'm looking for, but i LOVE them)

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/96/01/d7/9601d719c88a405f6cce9d2d03af0e58.jpg

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/20/a5/0e/20a50eadcd598d948f152326c38eb95c.jpg (these might be a little too dressy)

https://www.pinterest.com/pin/76561262393719001/ (maybe a little toooo chunky)

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/564x/0b/ce/77/0bce77ca3f97fe8f79da77e6598758b9.jpg

my new comfort look is mid thigh tunics, preferably loose and flowy, underneath a knee length cardigan, with bare legs or tights and badass boots.

I tried various iterations (several NOT CHEAP) of not-comfortable-looking-but-comfortable women's shoes and have fucking given up.

I bought (NOT CHEAP but yet CHEAP) two pairs of men's wingtips--the high-end kind--and am not looking back.

I get tons of compliments, my feet are happy, and these shoes are gonna last 10x longer then these crappy velcro shit stuff I wasted time on.

justine i like the "dressy" boots - a tiny bit steampunk but in a good way?? - and the last ones, which are pretty unfuckable with

yeah i really like them too, but i already have two pairs of really cool witchy/steampunk (also in good way) boots. i also have a pair of very simply black mid calf boots, but the have a very thin sole, so i feel like what's missing is pair of slightly chunky, more badass boots??

resole with maximum chunk!

Loooove those Abba shoes.

Was "flatform" a typo or is that a thing?

flatforms.. have been thinking about getting a pair actually

lately bought new oxfords from dieppa restrepo on super sale, they're really comfortable

https://cache.theoutnet.com/images/products/676068/676068_fr_l.jpg

omg those are so nice

I'm tired of wearing Docs everyday someone suggest me men's shoes that are slick and not sloppy

red wing oxfords

I am the last person you'd want this answer from

red wing oxfords look just like docs!

eh. no.

lmao these all look like shit tho???

http://www.redwingshoes.com/footwear/filter-m,Oxford

Trickers, Alden, something like that? Chunky brogues seem like a close cousin to docs.

I meant the red wing heritage line, not the main line

http://www.redwingheritage.com/us/USD/mens-footwear?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIo9rKlujL1QIVT2x-Ch3RegGCEAAYASAAEgJ4WPD_BwE#category=oxfords

i have two pairs of alden bluchers and they're great but i'm kind of afraid to wear them out

if I was into shoes that weren't Converse I'd go Adidas

Trying to find the right kind of nice leather shoes is a fool's errand, if you like Docs, stick to the plan, just get some different looking Docs

Does ilx like nike huraches?

For a long time my signature shoes were clarks desert boots, then two different kinds of red wings, but now I'm wearing these. Part of me thinks they're incongruous with the rest of my look but idk. I'm in love with them.

im p sure we have some huarache wearers on here.

i hadn't worn a big brand pair of sneakers in absolutely years but i got a pair of adidas nmd r2s and i feel like I'm walking on damn air

Yeah similar experience with the huraches. They are so comfortable. Idk why i spend all fall and winter in heavy red wing boots. I don't think I pull off ruggedness anyway.

<3 huaraches never owned any tho

just got a reimbursement check from work should i spend it all at once y/n

https://www.therealreal.com/products/women/shoes/boots/ann-demeulemeester-lace-up-wedge-ankle-boots-1-2

YYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

oh HELL yes

where would i even wear them outside of like an arca concert..

to the grocery store, duh

WOW, love!

my dad knows i'm into fashion so he got me some malaysian shoes off amazon

https://i.imgur.com/gWyMDCa.jpg

<3 <3

Your dad is a normcore wizard.

agreed

nordstrom rack has a lot of good shit right now. i hope these show up in the next three weeks for new job

confession: i have a big callous on the bottom of both of my feet, right on the ball of my feet. i can hold a flame to it for 5 seconds and i can't feel a fucking thing. haven't tried that yet but i believe it to be true. recently, i realized i have the callouses because i have holes in both soles of my pair of IRL shoes. i tend to use things until they break, and this really got reinforced during coronavirus.

i'm a fuckin mess

here's my question: does anyone have any recommendations for walking around shoes that don't feature large advertisements for the shoe company on them? for example, imagine the perfect shoe, whatever that means, but "SHOE CO." is printed on the back. disqualified. also disqualified: anything that looks like a modern athletic shoe. no. nothing like that. i just want a comfortable shoe that isn't an advertisement and doesn't look like an 8-year-old inherited the design division of a shoe company.

dude get into the deeply nerdy comfort/orthpedic shoe game. no logos, no brands, just sturdy footwear

join me!

ie New Balance 669 has like, zero branding

New Balance Men's 669 V2 Walking Shoe https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HG1Y7P8

but they have fully leather ortho shit if you want to go Simpsons “who ordered big shoes” etc

just giving you a starting point
go down the rabbithole
