What shoes do you wear?

[alec]

I'm just curious. Really. I'm only into women's feet, and you know that, but somehow shoes have always been very important to me, so seriously: I want to ask you mongrels what kind of shoes you wear. That's all. No harm done. Tell me.

This spring and this coming summer, good ol' wishy-washy alec will be wearing Converse All-Stars (Seasonal Charcoal)

and, when the going gets tough, and the tough gets going, a pair of Dr. Martens Steel Toe Cap shoes

So how about you? What do your Shit Kickers look like?

Good ol' wishy-washy alec is well-aware that All-Stars and Dr. Martens aren't what they used to be. They are now produced in Asian or Chinese sweat-factories, depriving thousands of humanoids from a normal, healthy and morally acceptable life. Nevertheless, the quality of these shoes, and their non-conformistic history appeals so much to good ol' wishy-washy alec, that he is, in fact, willing to let 16-year-old Chinese or Asian sluts suffer for the ergonormic comfortability of his feet. He will, eventually, be punished in heaven for this sin, so help you God. Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

On bad weather (or when going to a concert). HD owns.

And the shoes i'm wearing now and will wear till winter.

Meh. Asian sluts? That was just cruel

 

[Treupp]

Good ol' Fila, Filativa 2006 series.... but mine are black... just couldn't find a proper picture and was to lazy to take one.

 

[Brother None]

Magnum's. Forgot the type-name

I've had better, and I prefer the type of boots I wore at construction jobs (often Maddogs, but others as well, including a brand I can't recall that can no longer be found in the Netherlands), but these are a light enough mix of formal-casual to work well on the job floor and elsewhere.

 

[Muff]

Boot's, Red DM's or newrock's or the Standard army boot.

But I have a pair of trainer's for jogging and walking the dog in.

 

[Per]

Pretty much this:

PS. Stupidest thread evar.

 

[Lukus]

My favourite pair of shoes evar was a pair of Carlo Pazolinis for 160€ made out of brown, fine braided leather. (Italian braided leather is like sex for feet.) Then I moved from Prague, got poor, and now I wear some brown loafers of hardened leather made by some unknown manufacturer, that I got for 23€ on sale.

And hey, alec, what's with the small font? Since when do people really care about 16-year old asian sluts working for your benefit?

Also, as much as this thread may be stupid, at least it's actually a thread that people, you know, have posted in recently.

 

[Gerko]

Hrmmm ... let's see.

Yup, that's it. I desperatly need a new pair, though. These are totally worn out. Had 'em since late ... uh ... 2001. Whoa.

-Gerko, but still waterproof.

 

[Treupp]

(Italian braided leather is like sex for feet.)

Aye mate, but not only for feet. I own a leather trenchcoat made in Italy.... simply deluxe :!:

 

[KQX]

I guess my style is a little different from those above. I've been a fan of the classic Superstars for many years:

 

[PhredBean]

I got so comfortable in these and the desert version I have been wearing them almost all the time. They're Corcocan Mach Boots, I love them.

 

[Tannhauser]

I wear a number of different shoes regularly, depending on the occasion. The colors in the following pictures are accurate to what I wear.

My most general wear are New Balance 608 athletic shoes.

For snow, hiking, work, or other occasions when athletic shoes aren't suitable; I wear Cresta Hikers.

When I require shoes that that are more formal than my previous pairs, but less than dress shoes, I wear a comfortable pair of black Ecco Neoflexors.

For when the situation calls for dress shoes, I wear Allen-Edmond Chester.

I wonder what that shoe collection says about me?

 

[10mmCurator]

I wear Skater shoes like Circa, DVS, DC, Vans... Etc right now I am wearing black vans with black and white skull patterns on the sides. Its from their old skool off the wall series.

 

[Von Drunky]

I wear anything from Diesel, Adidas, ripped up Chucks, To Dr. Martens and Harley Davidsons depending on where im going.

 

[Lord 342]

Boots man, boots.
I've got five pairs of millitary-style boots.
-one is a vintage pair of Vietnan-Era Combat Boots
-one is a pair of tanker boots
-two are steel-cap insulated boots of the "combat boot" form factor
-one is pretty much the same, no steel cap.

I've got a pair of Mukluks for bad snow but haven't needed them lately, a pair of nice-looking "Sketcher" shoes with a steel cap toe, a pair of Florsheim dress boots for fancy occasions, and a pair of steel-cap sneakers (those are a hard item to find). Oh, I've also got a pair of western boots which I've been wearing lately.

I started wearing steel toe shoes in grammar school because people would step on my toes. (I was the kid who got picked on a lot) I just got used to them. Plus I know some Kung-fu, so it's like having a brass knuckles for your feet if you ever need to lay the smackdown on someone.

 

[monsharen]

A soft one:

And of course:

 

[SuAside]

Lakai Foster 2's

and steel tipped Caterpillar work shoes, for when i'm driving my motorcycle. (i had an accident once with skate shoes on... auwtch, learned my lesson...)

but i don't have a particular liking to Lakai. might as well have been Globes, Vans, DVS, DC or whatever.

What shoes do I wear?

It's something like this:

...They are now produced in Asian or Chinese sweat-factories, depriving thousands of humanoids from a normal, healthy and morally acceptable life... God...

News flash, if it weren't for those sweat-factories, the cost effect that comes form making millions of shoes would probably make us rice the price, with would have to be cut down from top, meaning the adds, the banks, the housing and so on. So it more about your well fare than theirs. And by the way, what God are you talking about, yours, theirs, mine or someone else's.

 

[Yamu]

These are the spitting image of the shoes that I wear to work every day, not to mention most other days of my life:

(This is actually a picture of the women's model. Oddly, disconcertingly, they're perfectly similar.)

And here, we have the only other pair of shoes I actually own at the moment. (God I'm poor.):

... only imagine them sullied and beaten by a few years of beachgoing, cliff hiking and other unjustifiable abuses.
