(i tried on a bunch of hot-pink and coral jeans a couple of weeks ago and tho the fit wasn't right, i am still wanting some hot-pink or coral jeans even tho i know they are almost out of style already agh i blinked and that colour story ended)

all-stars for all time imo
I agree that they look good on anyone toddlers to old farts but my mom has, upon seeing me wearing mine, asked me on more than one occasion when I'm going to start wearing adult shoes. She was a buyer in a former life and has pretty old school ideas on what's proper and classic etc.

Converse was my first shoe brand that I can remember having. I was always busting my mom about wanting some "hi tops" presumably because breakdancers wore them or something, idk. But we were in a Ben Franklin near my grandma's house in Wisconsin and my mom found some chucks on sale and I got them and I was super proud. My first "cool" thing, probably.
It was the summer before third grade and we had just moved and when we got back home to maryland I started at my new school and on the first day some kid was like "Chuuuccks suuuuuck!"
― frogsclovetofu (beachville), Saturday, 28 April 2012 09:49 (twelve years ago) link
I wore them all the time as a kid. But then I realized I don't like uncomfortable shoes. Also need arch support.

i had a dream last night that my friend got a free pair of norse projects shorts and jacket too and gave them to me for free

i also buy some heavy flannel and chamois shirts from sam's outdoor outfitters in brattleboro every couple of years. mostly woolrich or kilimanjaro

I mean, the brands are fine but just so unimaginative. People always mistake me for someone else.
