While basically idolizing ILX in every other respect, I have always been more or less aghast at its taste in shoes.

id say a decent % of the shoes in this thread look fine

thank you for standing up to wanko ergo sum

yeah this is def the best shoe thread on ilx

but did I tell you ilx has been historically bad at shoes and it is a new thing for me

thank you for standing up to wanko ergo sum

my latest 'thing' is to defend ilx from ppl using negative hyperbole about it -- see also 77 thread defending ilm as more than just tim finney and vahid

were you inspired by the heroes of who would win in a fight?

yes

thats also inspired my interest in ridiculous ott storylines involving hulk breathing in space and keeping the world together with his hands when its core explodes

clark's desert trek

get your grown man on

u could split the difference and get the visvim flok boots:

http://www.freshnessmag.com/v4/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/visvim-lhamo-folk-1.jpg

love those

those are pretty nice vahid and ya i do already own at least three pairs of dunks :/

(including another pair of brown high-tops... except they're leather and dark brown... and i wish i had another fresh new pair just like them)

but i do really like those suede ones

yeah those visvim folk boots are a steal at only $468 ... i actually have two pairs of visvim FBT

one is brown elk leather, just like the one at lower left except without the painted-on triangles

http://hypebeast.com/image/2007/05/visvim-fbt-ancestor-nez-2.jpg

the other one is the black suede model shown from behind at the upper left here

http://hypebeast.com/image/2008/01/visvim-jokhang-fbt-christo-2.jpg

i have to say i'm not really crazy about either pair, they're nice to look at when they're on the floor but they might be the most uncomfortable shoes i own. the soles are really flat and the one-piece construction means that parts are always digging into your feet. the leather/suede are very soft so i guess they're nice to rub on your face but they also offer little or no support and when your foot pronates the seams dig into your feet. the suede laces *never* stay tied and by the end of the day the suede "skirt" is always coming untied. i'm scared to death of spilling anything on them or getting them dirty because they cost like three bills apiece.

finally i wear size 12 and for some reason it doesn't look so great in that size. i guess they look good on five foot tall japanese fashionista dudes but when i wear them i always feel like i'm wearing something out of my wife's closet - she has a ton of suede booties, like all fashionista girls - or like i'm wearing oversized baby shoes.

when it comes down to it if i want to wear black suede shoes i reach for these first:

and when i want to wear brown leather boots i reach for those clarks i posted or for these
