    Sneakers

    So is anyone else here really into sneakers? I'm getting more and more into it, but I'm not one of those crazy sneakerheads (yet..) I currently own 16 pairs, they're all Nikes, Dunks, Air Forces (1s, 180s), Jordans, and Air Maxes (1s, 180s.) My favorite pairs are my Nike Dunk low Untold Truth Editions and my Premium CL lows.

    So lets talk about sneakers, first pairs, favorite pairs, number in collection, ones you want, upcoming releases, new purchases, and of course PICS! I'll post some soon of my recent Dunks.

    BTW a good site for sneakers is pickyourshoes.com but if you have a good eye you can find good deals on good kicks anywhere. Check out hypebeast.com to learn more about the culture and see some INSANE collections.

    No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."

    whatever's on sale and is comfortable...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    How good are the Starbury's really? How do they compare to conventional brands that cost many times more?

    That's pretty much how I've always been. Currently I'm wearing Nike Uptempo that I got during Foot Locker's F&F sale a while ago.

    I use the Starbury's as a walking shoe (like when I'm just going to class or something). I can't tell you what they're like performance wise really because I play basketball in my jordans. They are however a great deal and it's a good shoe.

    Naruto Sandals FTW!

    I used to be all in the "sneaker craze", but now I'd rather conserve money and go for the cheap, decent pair.

    I was banned, but I guess I've been unbanned for a while.

    Do you have the Marc Jacobs Vans? Those are crazy. I'm probably going to get some new kicks tommorow haven't bought some in a while.

    o.o

    And people think girls own a lot of shoes, lol.

    I own 5 pairs total. In total I've probably spent only about $150 on shoes in the past 6 years.
    1. My everyday shoes are black Airwalks that I got on sale at Payless.
    2. Sandals for the summer - some random brand I forget, but they're so comfortable that I've been wearing them for 3 summers and refuse to retire them even though they're falling apart.
    3. Silver high-heeled sandals - these shoes are an invention of pure evil, made to be deathtraps. I've worn them exactly twice, both times when I was in the wedding party for friends that got married.
    4. Black dress shoes. For like, job interviews and stuff. I got these back when I was in highschool, I have no idea from where, but I do know they were on sale.
    5. Clean room shoes. When I started working in the clean room this year, they require everyone to have a pair of shoes for working there, that only ever stays in the clean room and has never been outside. They also require that these shoes be fairly thick on top so that if you spill acid on your feet, it won't eat through your shoes right away. So I picked these up at Zellers (on sale, hehe) and they're kindof a generic brown running shoe, with blue laces.

    I got some DCs, Nikes, K-Swiss, adidas, royals.

    I was thinking of getting some new shoes last week, but put it on hold as of other things in need. I usually wear my DCs and royals for everyday, and the adidas and royals for clubbing.

    I was looking at the Wade the day I bought my current pair. Are you talking about the one that's about $130? It felt like very low quality and inferior to the ones beside it. It seemed like the kind of shoe that you would find at Wal-Mart.

    Wade needs to get out of that Converse deal and get with Nike.

    Thanks for your opinion, I haven't physically tried on the Wades yet, I just thought they looked hot, but thanks for the forewarning that they might suck total shit.
