I like the fact that the second are "sneaker boots" which means I can kinda justify them for spring/summer although they are pretty tall.

First ones I probably could also do for spring summer since they are ankle high, however they kinda look like some deformed animals foot. What do mah homies think?

well i like the second, prob wont look deformed once worn and filled out. 1st looks interesting but the angle is making it tough to judge. you can rock the 2nd unzipped with high socks(scrunched down, but still showing) and shorts and a long sleeve tee. would look dope imo

edit: you ninja'd the fist pair. i think they are the same, just diff sites??

yah, I wanted people to see the details better.

snowman thats actually why I kinda want the second, I am just going to fold my dropcrotch pants up, and wear them as shorts/cropped dropcrotches.

more pics of the second here (next to the damn boots I tried to buy from you snowman :p)


I'll probably go with the second. I think I can later get ankle high boots. All the goth_ik ones are still on sale for like half still. I like the ankle high clown looking boots from SS2011, but I'd rather wait than pay retail for now.

Only reason why I was thinking of not getting it cuz I dont want my feel to sweat like a modafugga yo

I love the pattern, think it would fit well with Lotus' stuff

the only thing that puts me off is that weird bib situation

could work though

I really don't like the brand, DBSS. Their hoodys and sneakers are nice. However, I was going to bid on some DBSS destroyed goatskin re-issues a week or so ago, but then decided not to because I suddenly thought they looked awful. I know I am the minority in this viewpoint, lol.

its weird too, cuz it depends on the picture and angle. Cuz some pics make them look nice to me, and others make them look yuck.
