In my younger years I was all about Air Jordans( versions I-V at least).
What are some of your fav. kicks?

Alltime?  These hold up.  Classic 1988 Air Jordan III's:

In college I had about 8 different pairs of Puma's, all different colors.  Twas quite sweet.  Different color for a different mood.  Rock the shit outta those badboys.

After that I got in to Vans.  Rocked them for many many years, but now it seems the designs are way to middle school for me.  A lot going on in the design, hurts my old eyes.  I know there are some nice basic ones out there, but I don't see them very often.  I will buy them when I see them, though.

Recently bought a pair of New Balance, first time ever, and I really like them.  Comfy, light, works great.  But I still have an old pair of Vans for those snowy days so my feet don't get wet.

The deal now, for Vans, is to go online and, aside from a couple decent styles every year, you pretty much have to make a custom pair.
At $60 per, it's worth it. My next sneaker purchase will be 2 identical pairs of custom vans.

I have had these same shoes since 5th grade.  Well, not the same pair, but the same exact shoe.

I honestly can't keep track off how many different pairs i have boughten.... my guess is around 10.

Always white stripes, always. 

I guess it is kind of weird, I've never been a huge shoe fan, so once I found a pair i liked i just stuck with it...... it's nice buying a new pair of shoes but not having to get used to them because they are the same, especially now that I've stopped growing I can get the same size everytime.

How boring am I?  :|

I agree that Nike's running shoes are a bit blah, but Nike's SB and 6.0 lines are are usually pretty solid when it comes to interesting colorways and style.

I picked up the Pegaus 26s for shorter runs,

as well the Vomero 4's for distance runs.

(http://www.runningshoesguru.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/nike-zoom-vomero-4-mens.jpg)

The Peg26's aren't as stylish as the 25s, which I loved...

Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: G. Augusto on July 13, 2009, 10:42:12 AM
Yeah, they are stylish.
My Yellow/Blue ones are getting pretty trashed, so I picked up those grey ones.
The red scheme id tight, too.

If you really like them, I would snatch up a pair before they run out (they are discontinued.)

I've never really liked the super lightweight runners.
I need some nice support, and I finally found the perfect running shoe for me with the 25's.
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: mattstick on July 13, 2009, 10:51:44 AM
I get staff discount at the Running Room so I have a tough time paying "retail" for shoes these days.

I have the black/neon SE edition of the 25s right now.  Hot shoe for sure, once I retire them from running I will wear them on the daily.

The title of this thread is redeeming. I went into the NikeTown headquarters and asked the salesman for some advice on different "sneakers".

The 60 year old dude then told me he hadnt heard that term in ten years. I actually had to ask him what he would call them. Runners he said.

I never expected to be schooled in newspeak by someone's grandfather.

Well, I won the argument, lost the girl, but in the end, guess what? I still got my blue chucks.  :-D

I dunno. It'd be hard to give up on my blue chucks. They were special, because my last pair I lost in the mud at Coventry. Well, just one of them really. But then I took a few years getting over the loss of them and the loss of Phish. It wasn't until last summer/early fall, when I got my new pair around when the Phish rumors started swirling, I felt it had been long enough to mourn the old pair. So yeah, I like em!

If you wear them and youre not in the clique youll get pelted w/ PBR cans when you walk across bridges.  To make them go away you have to get above 85% on a multiple section pop quiz about Punk Rock in 1977, New Wave in 1984, and Indie Rock in 1996.  Liking Phish, the Grateful Dead, or electronic music are all automatic disqualifications.  

This one time I put on a pair of Chucks and suddenly my septum was pierced.  I took them off and it was gone.  Weird.

I dunno dude. I sport low top chucks on a regular basis so don't consider them sneakers. I actually got in quite a heated debate over this with an ex-gf, as I wore them out one night with jeans, button downshirt, and jacket to a play, and she flipped calling them sneakers and said sneakers are inappropriate for that setting. Well, I won the argument, lost the girl, but in the end, guess what? I still got my blue chucks.  :-D

You do realize that they are sneakers, right?
And they have been for nearly 100 years.

I can't think of any occasion where Chucks wouldn't be appropriate.  

Maybe a funeral, it would depend though. . .

If I ever get married, I'm pretty sure it'll be mandatory for all groomsmen to be in chucks.   :-D

I can think of a couple girls I wish I had traded for a pair of Chucks. I can think of one in particular I would have traded for your used blue Chucks.

I dunno. It'd be hard to give up on my blue chucks. They were special, because my last pair I lost in the mud at Coventry. Well, just one of them really. But then I took a few years getting over the loss of them and the loss of Phish. It wasn't until last summer/early fall, when I got my new pair around when the Phish rumors started swirling, I felt it had been long enough to mourn the old pair. So yeah, I like em!

haha
did you happen to lose it in the really muddy part with all the mixed in wood chips right outside the entrance to the concert field.  I found one in the mud there

Holy Crap! Actually, that is EXACTLY where I lost it. I was walking through that area, and took a step, and when I took my next step, my shoe was gone, and I turned around, and it was gone, sucked into the mud, which made the walk back to where we were staying horrible, because of the gravel.

Yeah, but have you ever worn them with the three-wolf-howling-at-the-moon tee on? I lost 20 lbs, was transported to the beach, and gave a girl an orgasm just looking in her direction and giving a sub sonic pelvic thrust with that combo on. It was something else. I NEVER wear them together anymore, I just don't know how to handle the power.

I wore a pair of black and white ones to my brother's wedding. It was a low-key deal at the Flamingo in Vegas, but still.

I'd like to think it's the reason this one hasn't broken up.

Yeah, at the local Goodwill, they keep "nice" sneakers in a glass case at the front of the store...only one shoe of the set, and they keep the other shoe in the back...so you have to first ask for the shoe and check the size then ask for the other one.

Well, she pulled it out, and said "it's a size 13".  I was like "WTF?  That might fit!?!?!?" 

I asked to see the other one, and she went to the back, and brought out both in the original box.

Brand fucking new.

I tried them on, and they fit like a glove.

I had no idea that Nike was paying the NBA 5,000 a game in '84 because the NBA said that the Jordan's couldn't be worn because they weren't predominately white. (Maybe I remember hearing something like this on the news, but I didn't remember it until I read the wiki for Jordan's today).

ser. the III's are it for AJ.  I'll be rocking mine this weekend at GW/Allmans.  Yeah I remember MJ getting fined by the league and Nike picking up the tab, it worked in their favor both from a marketing perspective and intrigue perspective.  I was an 11 year old baller when the first AJ came out, the "Old Love" version as pictured below.  They really caught your eye and to be worn by this phenomenal player it was a double whammy.

That had to have been Peterson.  He's OBSESSED with shoes and I'm pretty sure he was rocking some Jordans.  Was he the guy who was wearing the O's jersey?  He wore them to the Hampton shows and said they got pretty dirty so they're now his "concert shoes".

It was definitely Peterson cause he was asking me about it. I remember Fauxpas being "all dude, wtf, who's this guy? He's got a cooler version of what I'm wearing!"  :lol:

I used to rock NB's exclusively....first 587's and then 991's and 992's with a few 2001's interspersed until they stopped making them.....I always keep some new 992's on hand, they are so comfortable, and because NB's come in widths (at least the USA made ones) they fit me great....

Man, I did just the same and never wear the 420s, they wear similar to Nike Cortez's, by being "slimming."  Compared to 574s they look small and "dainty" in a way...also even low cut socks will show a lot on 420s, they best work w/out so not much of an every day shoe.  I'd go with a 445, 595, 996 over a 420.

There is also a version with brownish stripes.  But I don't think the brown suits the shoe if they are going for a Vader look

These aren't general release, only available through adidas.com and boutiques.  1st batch was vaders, stormtrooper (superstar 2) a generic SW superstar 2, a Vader ZX8000 and the Leia hightops.  Others still to come or boutique exclusives.  X Wings are sick!

WW, those are the "generic" Star Wars ones.  Looked like gold stripes, with Star Wars logos all over the upper.  Pissed I passed on the Troopers as they sold out quick.

The deal now, for Vans, is to go online and, aside from a couple decent styles every year, you pretty much have to make a custom pair.
At $60 per, it's worth it. My next sneaker purchase will be 2 identical pairs of custom vans.

So I was checking this out today, looking for a new pair of kicks for the summer, and they bumped the price up to $70.  Still not bad for making your own shoes...

Not a bad plan.  I know from checking the Nike Factories that lots of limited Nike's make it to the outlets more often that you would expect.  Like the one in Atlantic City that was PACKED full of Nike SB's!!!
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread

I'd be pretty surprised to see those at an outlet store.

I have fairly good luck at the Nike outlets too, but it's not like you see ridiculously limited/in demand Dunks or throwback Jordans there.

Yeah, Nike Factory Outlets are the bane of my existence.  I am a Dunk collector/fan and they seem to always have a new colorway I want every single time I go.  Plus I am a huge Nike/SB head so...I usually have to talk myself out of buying 3-4 pairs each visit. 

Hicks...there are two types...Nike Factories and Factory Outlets.  I have never seen SBs @ the outlets but the one in AC is a full on store and had no less than 10 different pairs of SBs (Dunk Low, High, P-Rod 2s) etc.   I immediately turned and left sad...as I walked 10 blocks from the Taj in 20 degree weather and a determination to stop buying every pair I see.  Also, some of these stores do get in super rare Jordans etc.  Although I never saw them, the outlet near me needed to be closed down for a few hours after a huge drop.  Kids went nuts tearing the place.  Stock at the outlets rotate EVERY week.  Some are there and gone in minutes.

Not a big sneaker guy but there is a store here in Boston called Bodega. It appears to be your average convenience store but when you order a snapple from a vending machine a secret panel opens revealing this:

Question for you all:

Do any of you guys skate, and if so what do you wear?

I have just started skating again and the skate shoe scene is a dramatically different than when I left it.

I picked up a pair of DC aerotech's and they are working for the time being.  I just know from wearing SBs that they would probably work out a bit better.

Anyhow before I shred a pair of limited Nike's I figured I'd try to get some feedback.

Very tempted to try these out as they are at least my least favorite colorway out of the 4 pairs I have:

(http://www.kicksonfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/nike-zoom-air-p-rod-iii-sb-available-now.jpg)

My main concerns are durability and board feel.  The DC's seem durable as hell, but there is almost no board feel to them.  The P Rod IIIs seem to have the best board feel I have come across but fear they will last only a few sessions?

Any suggestions?  Thanks!!!

A couple years back a dude I worked with found these Playstation AF1s at Goodwill for $20.  The ones he snagged looked like they had only been worn a couple times!   

(http://www.growupweb.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/nike-air-force-1-playstation-thumb.jpg)

I saw a size 7/8 of those at my local goodwill.

The same place I picked up my Jordan IV-Spike Lee throwbacks for ten dollars brand new in the box.

the Orange SKywalker high tops are sick as well IMO, but i dont think i could get away with them 365.
i need to call foot locker today and see when these are coming in... or if Lincoln Nebraska will even be getting any.
worst case scenario i'll order some online, but ordering shoes online is asking for problems.

Yeah, my brother has a real problem with sneakers.  He usually buys 3 different colors of the same style so he had them in white and didn't really care for the black ones anymore.  So I scored big time.

HA!  Totally understand, kicked down a pair of Pumas to my bro once because I liked them in the store...not so much when I got them home, he dug them so it was all good.  But since I have 20+ pairs of Dunks, I have an idea where your brother is coming from.

well, after trying on a pair of adidas at the mall the other day, i decided despite how dope the Stormtrooper Superstar 2s were, that i wouldnt feel comfy in them 365 as far as everyday shoes. i guess i'm spoiled from wearing super cushey Skate shoes over the last decade.

good news is, i found a new pair of DVS'-- the brandof skate shoes i wear now and need to replace after 5 years-- for half price online! w00ttastic0!!

Hey Slim, if you skate in those (just assuming since they are skate shoes) how do they hold up?

I've been happy with my Dunk SBs, but I am trying different brands.  DC don't cut it for me and I am not much of a fan of vulc soles.

though i rarely skate these days... i have skated in them, and overall i'd say they are
durable as fuck.
though i only have exp. with the actual skate shoes... i dont mess with the flimsy stuff.
i used to really like Es' @10 years ago, but their stuff has gone soft.

Thanks for the reply Slim, I think I will check out a pair and give em a try.

I got my Vader SS2's 3 months ago and all the other ones are selling quick, if ya want them..get them now.  And, since I have a pair and Hicks now has a pair, they're soon to be the official footwear of the 'paug, it seems.  8-)

And, those Adidas are slick.  I am really loving Adidas Skateboarding.  Great shoes and better colorways than their regular lines.

We get a first look at the adias x Star Wars Hoth Skate High, which was designed by CLOT from Hong Kong. Based on the Super Skate High, the mid top sneaker was inspired by the Hoth rebel base in the 5th episode, The Empire Strikes Back, of the epic film series. Here is a first preview with more images and information to follow soon.

Nike mentioned that they are returning to the fat tongues on Dunk SBs.  No word on what month they will return but hopefully by the Fall.  Regardless I am very glad to hear this, they just ain't the same with the new tongues.

Thanks for sharing...thought for sec while scrolling those were Pigeons! :-o

I'm a HUGE SB head!  Those tweeds are dope!

Also, after 2 weeks of daily skating I can report on the durability of SBs for anyone that would care or have discredited Nike or criticized their skate shoe line.
My Dunk SBs are holding up WAY better than my DC Aerotech's.  Toe stitching is still in tact where as the DC's started to rip after about 3-4 kickflips.   Also the Zoom insoles are amazing for skating.  Amazing board feel and padding where you need it, unlike full airbags like DC etc. where you might as well be wearing boots.

Also VA Slim, I have been checking around for some DVS.  The ones you posted are way too bulky for my style of riding.  I plan on getting a pair just to wear though.  Do you know if they make a less bulky shoe with better board feel?

they def make an array of styles. i totally agree wit you that these are best for lounging. i cant particularly attest to slimmer board shoes, but overall i think they make a quality product. def better than DCs or most anything else i've seen.


ALSO, these made me think about the old suede, black, hightop, AIRWALKS with the velcro LAce guard  from back in the day... man those were dope!

Ya, it has more selection but how do you know which ones to look for? I guess when I was trying stuff on for my last shoes all were fairly decent but they just didn't fit quite well on the sides, slightly too tight. I get it for dress or casual shoes, but I'm talking more about for sports.

Is this a thread where we share what kind of shoes we have?
Here goes:
I wear some kind of grey Nikes with a shiny pegasus on them...they might be pegasuses (sp?). They are filled with holes. In addition, they smell so bad that I can't wear them indoors (I leave them on the porch of my apartment).

Hands down the best sneakers I've ever owned.
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: Lifeboy on November 08, 2010, 08:49:05 PM
They're definitely not sneakers, but I just picked up a new pair of boots today. Growing up on a ranch and having a cowboy as a father, I have always owned a pair of boots, and I really dig 'em, especially when I dress up and go out. There are Justin Brand "Tekno Crepe" soles. They are so fucking comfortable. They feel like regular sneakers on your feet. They cost $200, so they better be comfortable/durable.

Do people find the AF1's comfortable?  Mine are super rigid and feel more like dress shoes than running shoes.

Maybe I should rock the Air Max instead?
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: VDB on November 29, 2010, 02:56:17 PM
The worst thing about new shoes is having to break them in.

I buy shoes pretty infrequently, and when I do (even though I've been buying the same brand for over 12 years now), I always find them a little uncomfortable at first.

I finally just got two new pairs of sneakers to replace ones that were literally falling apart. If I alternate between these pairs that means it'll take twice as long to break in...  :|

Maybe I should rock the Air Max instead?

The Max are way more comfortable that the 1's.
The Jones Beach AF1 are super comfy, tho, but they are made with a different material.

I find AF1s to be really comfortable after you've worn them 10 or 15 times.

I only wear the lows or 3/4s, couldn't tell you about the high tops.

They aren't running shoes though.

I have a pair of 3/4s that I've had for about six years.

They are my go-to weekend shoes, pretty much the most comfortable shoes I own at this point.

I've definitely worn them 10-15 times, they're 3/4 and just not comfy.  I guess I'll wear them every Friday to work and see how they're doing come summer.

AF1 is a running shoe?  I would never run in those, I would though run in airmax.  the airmax 90's are cool kicks.

No, I definitely don't run in my AF1s - I suppose I used running shoes as a synonym for street shoes/sneakers/kicks in that instance.

Quote from: kicksonfire.comOn December 4th a band of thieves stole a semi-truck from Kansas City that had 4,716 pairs of Jordan Classic 90′s inside of it. They proceeded to drive their cargo to Council Bluffs, Iowa where they got the slick idea of swapping out the truck and hitched the trailer to another stolen semi and made their getaway.

The criminals have not yet been caught. If you have any tips for the Kansas City Police Department you can contact their TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477. There is a very high chance that the midwest is flooded with cheap Jordan Classic 90′s right now but lets all be thankful that they didn’t steal the shipment of Cool Grey Jordan 11′s. That would have been like the Grinch stealing Christmas.

never saw AF1s where the toe color goes up the laces.

and the different color on the toe bumper is a dead give away.  COME ON AUG!

Dunks!

Been trying to find a pair of Zoom Oncore 2s but no stores in my town carries them.  Any tips for a good website to find some reasonably priced kicks?  I've searched a bit but haven't really found what I'm looking for.

go back to the first post in this thread.  I bought a pair of these gems today, long wait for an official release.  I succumbed to a fake pair a year and half ago, these are the real deal.  They went on sale today, they were out of stock everywhere online, footlocker, eastbay, nikestore online.  I knew they would go quick but wasn't expecting a total sell-out before 10:00am.  I turned to ebay and after already experiencing fake Jordan III's from sellers out of China/Hong Kong I began plotting to have my wife's sister in Switzerland buy a pair and ship here.  I forgot about the local Mall in Bangor and after a quick call to Footlocker confirmed w/ the mgr they had my size and were fully stocked, not having sold 1 pair!

Same here, and mind just got holes in the bottoms. I loved being this kid (and having 2 needy sisters) I get all my wardrobe from her cause I never ask for clothes.
But anyway. Some Nike SB Bruins. A couple of my friends back at home do the dunk thing and they reccomended bruins cause they last and they are comfy.
Simple. Just how I like them

Man, too bad the Hampton shows aren't on anymore, you could fit right in as a gladiator ;-)

But those are a really interesting design for sure. I would never wear them though haha. But what exactly kind of shoes are those?
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: phil on February 13, 2011, 02:17:36 PM
^^i legitimately found those by googling "whack nikez." I'm fairly positive they only come in women's and they were designed by some art school student who won a contest in which the prize was designing a pair of nikes. If they had them in men's and they were low tops, I'd buy 'em.
Title: Re: Sneaker Thread
Post by: whyweigh5.0 on February 13, 2011, 02:20:51 PM
I still never got around to sending those two pairs of Nikes back that I got a while ago.  Luckily Zappos has that 365day return policy.  I guess I am hoping that my feet magically grow one size while I am sleeping :smoke:  At first I was waiting because they ran out of stock of the one color that the one pair is... but they haven't gotten it back in stock yet and it's been a long time so I doubt it's going to happen.  Guess I'll just have to get a refund instead of an exchange and find them somewhere else

You bring yours...

Shit, if you've already got 'em them I must've done well.

One of my bigger beefs with a lot of the Nikes is the wild color schemes. You'd see a perfectly chill shoe thrown off my a neon green sidewall. Not my thing. and I know I can customize some on the interwebs but I have felt that I needed to wear some a while before throwing down like that.

Anyway, today these found their way in front of me and I grabbed 'em.

SHOUT OUT TO MY BOY KEVIN DURANT.

Got the KD V Elite +'s

(http://images.sneakernews.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/nike-elite-gold-reminder-3.jpg)

I also snagged the KD IV Creamsicles. (you can only buy these from an individual now-a-days)

....and the same shoe in black (the originals)
