I'm such a girl when it comes to boots.

all of my shirts save a couple of flannels and a couple of army overshirts are white, blue or black and all of my sweaters, jackets and hoodies are navy or black, excepting a couple of gray sweatshirts and an ivory hoody.

yeah i could fuck with this

thread took a turn for the barf

that moccasin shit a little earlier in this thread is NOT OKAY

I wouldn't wear them, but if Clarks Wallabees aren't mocs!

turn for the barf? STFU, you wear campers and probably read wallpaper+ too

i wear lollabees

i want to be able to wear the same clothes 20 years from now, or at least look back on pics and not think "jeez i look like total kiddult trash"

^this

worrying about how you'll think of the way you look in 20 years is a mug's game, sorry

so wait those visvims are $500 AND really uncomfortable? think i'll stick with the dunks thanks.

but i do like those clarks.

actually what i really want is a nice pair of low-cut dunks.

everyone shd own a pair of clarks imo

incredible quality + style for the money

not really feeling the boots that look like that last pair milo posted -- imo pass on those & go for the crazy $700 badass black boots

ya unless you want to look like a skinhead

the wesco boots are nice

also the zing is monocle not wallpaper+ but w/e

the nike court high force lux are v.nice too, look well comfy

An accquantaince of mine is the head designer of Clarks north america. Are the wallabees really comfortable? Not sure how I feel about them but if they are maybe I should see if she could swing her friends and family discount for me.

the wallabees are ridiculously comfortable. i wore mine last night. i can walk in them like they were sneakers. i have the clarks desert boot also and those shits hurt my feet. they look a little "nicer", but i walk a mile to get to the bus and my ankle/heel feel like they're on fire.

i feel like a lot of the shoes v & j rep for might be a bit too californ aye aie for my tastes

being a san diegan i don't walk as much as jaxon does but here are my feelings about the comfort of clarks

with the wallabees, the only problem i had was that the crepe soles seemed really high and wobbly at first compared to my sneakers and i constantly thought my ankle was going to roll and break. after a breaking-in perioid though the crepe got worn down enough that it wasn't a problem.

as far as the desert trek goes i actually have suede and not leather and it feels pretty nice to my feet, i think.

i walk a fair amount and my sude d boots are great, i wear them more than any other shoe

v. otm about the soles

Loving these:

I just bought these and although not the most stylish ever they appeal to my desire for comfortable shoes and the inner 17 year old riot grrrl into clunky mary janes that is still stuck inside me:

I got a black pair of these as kind of an upgrade/variation on black Chucks. I like em.

also a pair of brown leather boots by Jump that I can't find a picture of ... nice and comfy but in retrospect the leather's too soft for NYC, the toes were scuffed & shredded in like a week from going up and down concrete steps all the time

Not even the manufacturer has the Spring Courts I want in stock in my size (13/46).

just get purcells, spring court is hella pretentious

purcells make me think of little kid shoes
― moonship journey to baja

^^ i got over this feeling btw

Do Purcells have the same soles as regular Chucks? I had to stop wearing the latter, they're so hard on my feet.

dave those are dope

i like spring courts, they're not pretentious imo just a basic tennis shoe

ps i have worn my rod lavers ~1000x and my purcells ~2x, just sayin

i should probably replace those lavers

lavers are a+

laver vintage is a really good looking shoe:

what? no perforations?

just get purcells, spring court is hella pretentious

i dont get this - purcell vintages cost more than spring courts and the plain canvas purcells are kinda cheap looking and offer less support. the canvas spring courts look pretty dope to me and like something u would totally vibe

threw this together on the Converse site last week - y/n? Probably in a low top, hopefully I can fit a good insole in

yeah can you do insoles in chucks? they kill my feet

Wings+Horns Service Boots - $800 retail, almost worth it at the places going 50% off if I could find a 13.

anyone got any experience w/nike blazers... are they comfy?

also I see liberty have released a blazer adaptation of last year's dunks

http://www.sneakerfreaker.com/images/articles/Nike-Blazer-liberty-1.jpg

womens

not comfy, though not unbearable. they're basically just heavy and don't really fit the foot like a modern shoe does. on the other hand they won't give you blisters or anything like that, the seams and uppers are generally soft

cool, thanks, I guess I shd go try some on before ordering online

never did get a pair of low dunks, maybe I shd take the plunge

they hurt like fuck. but look damn good.

Yes, Church shoes. On sale still 250 euros. Did I say they hurt like fuck? But I've been wanting to buy some since I saw a pair of those in Miu Miu (Tokyo) five years ago or so.

Church's are good. My dad's a big fan.

Boat shoes and shorts for the summer, y/n?
