The link doesn't work for me...
Personally, I've been wearing one stars (been harder to find the last couple of years strangely) since i was an early teenager, and they're the only sportshoe I'll wear.

Don't think they'll ever be old-fashioned.

Is every post an attempt to promote your website?

Back in the fantastic 80's, I wore them in school. I was also one of the dorks (wasn't the only one) who mixed up pairs. We're talking light blue, yellow, orange, and well, I will not admit to the other pair I had.

Converse have become extremely trendy over the past decade, especially in kids among the punk/indie/hardcore following. They've been associated with skateboard culture even though low-tops are TERRIBLE for skating. But it's impossible to go to a concert without 80% of the kids wearing chucks. The rest have on Vans or some Nike dunks.

If you just link your site in your signature then you will not have to come up with contrived posts to promote it. I like your site but the way you reference it in all of your posts and work it into other threads is obvious and a little annoying.

What's so annoying about checking out http://www.thefashionist.se ?

Your post doesn't make any sense. If it was in response to mine I will elaborate, your website is good but you are beating us over the head with it. I have noticed that this has been mentioned in other threads so I know that I am not the only one that thinks this. The mods of this website are incredibly generous and the members are quite forgiving but you should be careful to not try peoples patience. It is not even that you are being so obtrusive but very repetetive. If I am being out of line or too harsh I hope someone will let me know. Maybe you could just bump that first post you made about your website when you update it?

Agreed. And it doesn't have that overly complicated, annoyingly slow, flash image transition thingy too.

I will never wearing them again because I think that is old Fashion.
You should go to the Ask Andy forums and say that.
