new shoes

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

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

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?

campers - y/n ?

kick back with a rolling rock & a fishing hat?

almost bought some boat shoes for summer 08 but they all seemed too stiff! still think it's a pretty good look though

campers are a little too corny indie fux imo

boat shoes are a lil too corny indie fux. i do love the look, but it's so ubiquitous

y/n - wearing out a pair of shoes and buying a new pair of same shoe/same color?

y -- esp w/ the classics

those boat shoes are SICK. are they quoddy?

oh duh, i just checked the image name. i want a pair of those, too.

and jaxon you are sorta right but the thing when the shoes are as nice as the quoddys i think that makes them a little more classic than like cheap white sperrys or whatnot.

damn, son, where can i cop

yea those grey ones are some buttery ass kicks

I saw these boots today that look like vintage wingtips except they go up to the ankle. Awesome imo even though I don't usually like mens boots.

Nom de Guerre x Red Wing take on the 875 boot (except they're called the Trench Protection Boot or some kind of bullshit by NdG)

those are cool but don't touch the originals IMO

only thing missing there is the white sole.

can't really see why you need grey unless you are on some raf simons gothninja shit or you're trying to wear redwings for trendiness but you dress like the dudes from studio

Leo: (spit) new shoes!

lol at u slang on "trendiness" with that blazer luxe shit BUT your right here.

been on a bit of westcoast/work wear tip myself lately with shoes mostly wearing scuffed/unpolished oxfords and boots last pair of shoes i bought was pair of lol sb mids:

not feelin the nikes

in general

although the black/white/grey ones are aight

The J. Crew x RW boots are kind of ugly. That logger sole (I think that's what those are called) is horrible.

I actually already have a pair of 1907s, which are basically the 875 with nicer leather I think.

Mostly I just like the look of the gray suede.

How do y'all size your tennis shoes? I have big feet (13E in the Red Wing sizing machine, 12.5EE in Alden boots), and sometimes think I'm buying most of my sneakers a size too small (ie I ought to size up from my boot size). So I ordered PF Flyers (Cousy All-Americans and Number 5s) in 13 and 14 - the 13s feel like most of my other shoes (~half a thumb width of toe room), while the 14s have a full thumb width, but feel kind of floppy when I walk, like there's too much material at the front folding over. I can't decide the if the half-thumb or full-thumb feels closer to right.

Ideally I could just get a 13.5, but that pretty much limits me to Sambas.

umm try them on first???

1907s >>>>>> j crew

because of the white sole, yeah.

i just don't get the grey suede. grey suede boots is so ... neil gaiman or something!

You might actually be right re: grey. I got a pair of Clark's Desert Boots in basically the same color and never wear them.

I wish I lived somewhere that jeans and boots were feasible year-round, I'd never wear sneakers:

good pick

http://www.myairshoes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/nike-air-max-90-current-tz-black-blue.jpg

did you buy those? the design is sick, i'd probably swap out for black laces though.

i'm still trying to decide on this colorway

http://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/3/3/3/4/9/7/webimg/251991663_o.jpg

i did buy them & im wearing them now. i love that color blue tho so im leaving the laces

how comfy are they? they look like the comfiest shoes on the planet, basically.

how do the orange ones look to you? i am thinking i can pull it off w/ summer outfits of raw denim jeans + white shirts

orange ones look cool too, not a color i would normally wear but i bet you could pull it off

they are extremely comfortable. they do run a bit narrow. im wearing 11s & normally im more like a 10& a half but these are like a glove

i saw some that i forget the name of -- also nikes, i think air max's? but i dont remember, that were like three difft colors that were all very sunset-y looking ... wish i could find pix of them now

i rocked a pair of these for a while. might notta been silver though but white instead. once saw a cute girl wearing same shoes and we said sup to each other.
