lol, I thought that Adidas was a **** brand for SFers, but I was wrong.
I don't think I like GATs because I've never seen them in person,
and there is no chance that I'll see them in my country, where no one knows what MMM is.

But is it possible for a #menswear/SW&D-guy to rock some GATs? Or are they 100% SW&D?

They don't really look different in person. If the pics don't do it for you, the real thing won't either. But why buy something because people can identify it anyway? Does this really make a difference to you? No one recognizes the clothes/brands I wear here but it doesn't stop me. Even if you do take other people's opinion into consideration (which we all do), they can still make judgments about whether or not they think it looks good, regardless of the brand.

My CPs barely see any wear after buying my gats. I actually picked up another low pair off yoox for when mine wear out. Maybe one pair with one pair without laces.

#Menswear as in faded slim fitting jeans, ocbd, simple knit and a casual jacket? Yes.

#Menswear as in cropped slim fitting tapered chinos (sockless), braided belt, polo, tight suit jacket with pocket square? No.

I'm in line for some new shoes/boots. I'm going in circles, so what the hell. Thoughts? It's like comparing apples to oranges to sushi. Or something like that.
