i wore redwings when i landscaped. but then i quit. so now i dont.

now this is something thats been on my mind lately- could skechers be the ugliest shoes ever made? if you ask me, yes. it seems, though, that others love them. someone must because i've seen at least two skechers stores open up in my area in the past year. some things i'll never understand

How much in yen? I remember Beams in Harajuku used to carry Buttero 2-3 years ago, when the exchange rate was good, and they retailed for like 60-80k I think, which was still too expensive.

to keep on tyo topic, a lot of *** guys honestly made the 875 look pretty good last time I was in town.

I've never been in a Sketchers store, but I have seen this:



Such a pretty girl, such ugly shoes.

i remember once when i was 8 maybe 9, my mom brought home a pair of skechers... she tried to convince me they were EXACTLY like the airwalks or vans i'd wanted.

parents just don't understand.

she also tried to convince me to buy steve maddens because they were on sale

Not just trolling, but I don't understand shoes SFer's love, besides PS and some CPs. Redwings. I mean why do people like crepe soles? They look so awkward and ugly, and the stitching that separates top of the boot from the sides is heinous.

Desert boots still feel like 8 year old wear to me. Don't really get tassel loafers either, but that's MC status Warming up to boat shoes a bit, they'll be worn to the beach only though (with shorts only) Is there any brand out there that has similar designs to Paul Smith Ricards, possibly cheaper? Even some PS's look oblong and awkward at times. Oh well it might be nice just to find one good footwear brand and stick with it. Still looking for stores in the Twin Cities besides Len Druskin

The crepe soles allows us (SF assassins guild) to sneak up on unsuspecting victims, to either maim or **** them, it depends.
