would wear the shit out of those church's but £200 is too much for me, especially for the crepe sole version, which doesn't last and can't (correct me if i'm wrong) be replaced. wearing clark's desert boots at the time of writing. £50.

clarks > campers
used to wear desert boots but now I just wear wallabees. black leather wallabees.
I needed something with a tread for winter though so I got these...not "originals" and pretty basic but they're comfy and do the job...

after an initial falling out with my little toe we get along fine. maybe the most comfortable shoe i've ever worn. kinda feel like i've found "my shoe"
i like a nice lie down as well

Thank god for Lamp and max, finally some shoes on this thread that don't make me illish. The deck shoes need to die in a fiery inferno. The Church's are beaut.

Dan, those Clarks look very sensible also! And the Tretorns are stylie.

I need new shoes. thinking about getting desert boots. are they still cool?
― cogito, ergo some dude (dyao), Wednesday, 20 January 2010 02:52 (fourteen years ago) link
desert boots are still cool but imo desert treks and wallabees are way cooler
― moonship journey to baja, Wednesday, 20 January 2010 03:12 (fourteen years ago) link
just got these for fancy timeshttp://www.shoes.com/ProductImages/shoes_ibec1164018.jpg
― andrew m., Wednesday, 20 January 2010 05:23 (fourteen years ago) link
just went to the shoe store and saw two or three desert boot knockoffs so yeah, they must be in style
going to visit the clarks outlet over the weekend I think
― cogito, ergo some dude (dyao), Wednesday, 20 January 2010 05:26 (fourteen years ago) link
don't do that. the shoes at the clarks outlet are made for the clarks outlet and they're of terrible quality.
― moonship journey to baja, Wednesday, 20 January 2010 05:33 (fourteen years ago) link
??? do you have any evidence to back this up, kind sir
― cogito, ergo some dude (dyao), Wednesday, 20 January 2010 05:34 (fourteen years ago) link
Wouldn't surprise me - that's often how outlets work nowadays.
― pithfork (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 20 January 2010 13:25 (fourteen years ago) link
desert boots are still cool, i wear my all the time & they go with anything

What a silly question. They've been cool for forty-five years; why stop now??

Yes, if the fashion is "to be ugly."

― max, Wednesday, 20 January 2010 22:12 (fourteen years ago) link
desert treks are less ugly but not exactly good looking
agree they're ugly but pretty comfy. they look weird on my feet so i don't wear them often

i dont really think theyre particularly ugly. its a look. i think it depends on how u rock it & what you wear it with. when the dad from malcolm in the middle wears them on 'breaking bad' it does look pretty herbish i suppose. but the mid 90s wu wear garment renaissance??
