vans are good and even the fancy limited ones are usually like $60-70 instead of $275 for new nike lebrons

i wonder what kind of shoes barons wears. i bet old DCs

I got size 14/15 feet so, right now i have:

An old pair of Globe skate shoes for slopping around in, and a pair of globe, i dunno, street shoes?

turns out the only place to get reasonably sized shoes in NZ is from skate companies

globes are pretty good as long as you avoid the early 2000s moonboots and the decent pricing is probably because they're an australian company

No, they're just out of rotation until I feel like wearing them again. I'm bailing out of here - I'm not a unique snowflake when it comes to sneaker buying/collecting (not even on these forums) and there's a huge community around it especially in the US and UK. I wouldn't even say I had that large a collection really - just stuff I like.

thanks again for visiting my thread. remember to say yospos three times before you go to sleep every night from now on or you'll get hosed in the rear end the following day!

lol @ the flip flop being a national icon. a shoe that is so terrible at being a shoe that it was named for the sound it makes not staying on your feet

i hate kiwiana but others love this poo poo

basically in the 50/60s/70s nz was a great place to be. some important people have said it was the closest thing ever to a classless society. to a large extent a lot of people in this country just wish they could live in that period indefinitely. unlike other countries that look to the future we look to the past. well, in theory or ideal at least, not in practice
