The jeremy scott sneakers are something you wear to a rave, not really a fashion sneaker.  


This.

I've been to a couple of warehouse raves and they're always full of graffers and girls decked out in neon windbreakers, crazy sneakers and just generally very loud, colorful clothes.

They don't show the part where it gets put into a digital pattern software, scaled up to different sizes, emailed to a shop full of chinese workers in southern italy, and have the actual pieces made.

Wow.

Is the second one Alexander Wang?
I saw a YouTube video recently of some group of thugtards (A$AP-whatever) going apeshit in a streetwear store and they all introduced themselves to the camera, with the last guy saying "Yo wassup, it's .... who am I kidding, y'all know me" -- when actually, no, I haven't a clue, and I'm much happier that way.


Alexander Wang styled a couple of A$AP's videos.

Not bad, want a more sleek last and I prefer the taller vamp/shaft in relation to rear with more traditional strap that goes the other way. I may do a carmina mto in black suede but for boots I prefer a slightly chunkier/less sleek last.



Shape not doing anything for me, leather sort of like plastic, did not feel like a 900 dollar boot. Should be around 400.

I hear ya. I like a taller boot as well. I'm looking for a nice-ish pair of black chelseas right now. I have a pair of carmina's (brown suede on arca last) which are great and I might just get another pair in black. good price:quality.

yeah, it's funny. I used to really like the chisel toe, then I hated it. Now, I think a well done version can look pretty good with the right clothes. The G&G is too much for me, but the Corthay I like. go figure. :-/ (ok, end of mc shoe tawk).
