Sigma X posted:Because, for the most part, people who are into through-hiking 50 miles on a long weekend, driving 8 hours to climb a 5.11 route in the middle of nowhere, or tramping through underbrush in search of some particular piece of wildlife don't give a poo poo about Air Force Ones (or whatever the trendy new hotness fashion statement shoe is at the moment). They care more about things like durability, comfort, resistance to staining, weight; you know, poo poo that actually matters. So you're saying it's too much to ask for a simple looking shoe that isn't painful to look at? That even if there were options for something that didn't look like a small child's idea of a shoe they wouldn't buy them? C'mon now.

Toast Museum posted:I didn't think 501s were that baggy, at least after the shrink, but image searches say that was just wishful thinking on my part. Wait, you think the jeans pictured are baggy? I mean, yeah they're certainly not skinny jeans or anything, but it's a far cry from what I'd call baggy. More like "relaxed" fit? This, to me, is baggy:  Though it can get worse:

Those Levi 501s used to be the standard for "slim jeans" but this was before modern skinny jeans were invented. We're in a tight new world now.

Sidenote: apparently JNCO still exists and believes (hopes?) it's gearing up for a comeback. I guess sometimes you just NEED to fit a couple 2-liters of soda in each back pocket.

You can see the wood grain from the floor and the bottom of the chair legs in the top left but then the gap and the black display part on the bottom confuse me. But it clearly has a vent shaft so  . I request that you take more pictures once you move in.

I just noticed that boring shoe guy has "plain" "walker" in his name. Heh. Also I looked through the last 5 pages of the footwear thread and it was pretty inoffensive except for some novelty shoes that were posted, so maybe I'm off base here. EDIT: Except for these, lol

Shoe chat time? Let's do this. I bought some hiking boots from LL Bean for pretty cheap because I'm going to Iceland in a month. They're pretty ugly. They'll prevent my feet from getting destroyed. I'm good widdit.

Depending on how seriously and often you plan to hike and if you are going to go in the mountains, buying cheap hiking boots can be a very disappointing experience. I destroyed twice a cheap pair of hiking shoes (torn off the sole) while in the mountains, 2 days of walk from the nearest city, and I wish that to nobody (the second time I had duct tape, but still, it was terrible)
