I used to wear loud nikes as well, but they just seem ridiculous now. I mean, no one is telling him not to wear them, but the crowd here doesn't like them, and that's why they're pointing him to iss/niketalk, where he can probably get better input from people who do like those shoes. I don't think it's about being elitist (people here talk about nikes all the time), it's just that those particular color schemes don't do it for the members here.
Am I correct in assuming your idea of exciting clothes are t shirts with cartoon drawings on them in fluorescent colors?
It's not really elitism, all these forums just have their own styles. If, say, willy cheesesteak, were to post this: over at Hypebeast he'd get slammed by the "elitists" there too. It's not that these tacky ass sneakers are ugly or immature, they're just different from the style on this forum. But yeah, they're also ugly.
We are elitist because we don't have same aesthetic as hypebeast? Go to a different forum.
Same ol' argument. Yup. It's long been established that this place suffers from either group think or an extreme case of common interests. This place can get stuffy at times but I liken it to a car forum with a particular interest in domestics rather than imports; people know that imports exist, are happy if others are happy with them, and realize that there are other forums out there dedicated or better-suited to that interest. Variety may be the spice of life but this place doesn't have to open minded 100% of the time just to please everyone. If there are enough members to make this thread worthwhile then so be it. It's fine, it's just that there might be other places with more members who openly express similar tastes.
Damn man there are so many elitists on this forum, it's crazy. Every time someone comes here with a little diversity everyone just rags on them. Maybe that's why the majority of people on this forum wear really boring clothes. I can only take so much basic tee, jeans, basic sneaker. I don't even wear anything nuts either, I am a pretty basic guy, but just because someone comes in wearing something different than you doesn't mean you have to ridicule them.

This is the type of remark that I was talking about in my previous post. Real intelligent, go read my post again. I dress pretty basic, but I enjoy seeing what other people wear even if I'm not a fan of it.
