fresh kicks are an important part of a successful computer lifestyle, they let you wear normal/boring clothes but still stand out without being too much of a flashy shitlord [depending on the shoes]

shoefacts: both adidas and puma were started by two brothers, adi and rudolph dassler, adidas is a portmanteau of adi dassler and puma was founded as ruda or rudolph dassler

computer toucher posted:white adidas superstars ofc. cleaning the shelltoe is a pain, they did a "superstar modern" that I liked a couple years ago but I guess it didn't sell well so they dropped them  I've literally never owned a pair of all-white shoes since there's no way to keep them clean

we were p broke growing up so a lot of my clothes were second hand or mended so I think that's why I now hate anything that's "pre-vintaged" with a passion e: crocs are for fat middle-aged housewives don't wear a croc if you must get super-cushy shoes check out nike roshe run or adidas zx flux

Sagebrush posted:i've got no clue how much those cost w/ the special limited editions and all that garbage but let's say they cost on average 200 dollars a pair. you got $25,000 spent on shoes there son everybody needs a hobby one really nice thing about owning lots of shoes is that they take forever to wear out, my ones I wear the most still take like 3 years to go

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
