Title: Bought some new shoes
Post by: PyroMenace on Sunday, November 04, 2007, 11:07:43 PM
Picked up these converse skate star shoes (http://www.amazon.com/Converse-Skate-Star-Oxford/dp/B000TVT2RW). I really don't look into shoes that much, but I needed new ones badly, so a friend and I went shoe shopping. Normally I buy laceless shoes, the ones you just slip on, and ive been going with those for a long time now. I took a change, I just keep them laced where they are snug enough to not fall off but easy to slip on and off. So far I dig them.

Nice, I dig them also. I need some new shoes badly. Mine are two years old and I have worn them out terribly. The tread is long gone and soon they will fall apart.

You and a friend went shoe shopping? Did you pick up a matching purse?

Haha, it was her idea as she noticed numerous holes in the seems of my shoes. Ive been way to lazy to get new ones so I said why not.

Those are actually pretty nice, nothing too flashy and they are black.  I might consider those when I get some shoes soon.

Converse are cool.  I always buy Vans because they're comfortable, but they don't seem to last as long in recent years as they used to.  I may have to make a switch soon.

That would've been darling.

I need some new shoes.  Both a new pair of running/workout shoes and a pair of nice casual shoes.  I haven't had the time to look lately, but I really need to go shopping for some.

I hate black sneakers, but if you like them then I guess that's all that matters.

I'm more of this kind (http://www.newbalancetampa.com/images/MR8507RY_xl.jpg) of guy.  At $80 though, I don't have them yet.

I like those.  My Reeboks are showing signs of age.  I may look for something like that soon.

Heh, I would never wear anything like what Scott posted unless forced to do so at gunpoint.  I find those absolutely hideous.

I'm a Classics Van kind of guy. Black canvas all the way. Anything else just feels too heavy or clunky.

I love me my Puma stuff.  Since buying a couple pairs of Puma shoes, I have yet to buy any other.

I didn't even know they made normal shoes.  I used to use strictly Puma stuff when I used to play soccer.

Yeah, me too. I used to like stuff like that a long time ago, but I find that simpler is better now.

Well I prefer just brown casual-type shoes, but if I'm going to wear sneakers it's something like that.  Actually that's a little flashier than I would normally go for.  But I like 'em.

I'm the opposite, I wouldn't wear what Pyro posted... ever.  Even with a gun to my head.

my cousins never wear anything but converse, unless they're going to a dress up thing

I just bought this, but camel colored.. it was on sale, and got it for about 10% of it's regular price.
