Shoes

Not everyone wants to wear sneakers 100% of the time

[hugo]

But it’s ok if you do.

Not everyone wants to eat animal meat all the time either. Some people also want to eat human meat. Not sure that makes it ok with reference to sockless loafers

Lots of people make skate shoes look like shit.

Some people can make sockless loafers look good.

[buildafire]

Will there be sockless-loafer threads for years to come, with people discussing the best sockless-loafers to stand at the bar in? People demanding reissues of the pair of sockless-loafers they had that absolutely banging line of gear in before almost having a threesome with some proper tidy birds? Will there be sockless-loafer heritage; will they be looked back upon fondly? Or is it YOLO thing?

[nedertron]

Always sockless in shoes like that.

[hugo]

I’m not sure but it’s not much different to a vans slip-on or a janoski.

[nedertron]

Absolutely no difference in my opinion.

But where does everyone stand on tube socks and Birkenstocks?

[judithpriest]

Thinking about them Birkenstock Boston.
Socks/no socks; toes are covered so everyone is happy.

I wouldn’t have guessed it was even cold on the Neverland Ranch

The soles of mine are a little shiny and the grippy bits are now slippy bits but like I said I’ve had them 5 or 6 years. Still intact. They’re slippers so I’ve never worn them outside. Unless you’re doing a Risky Business all the time round the house I can’t see how you’d be wearing the soles out

Actually, looking at the pic @42069666 posted I think they might have changed them. Mine don’t have soles to speak of, just small patches of grip.

I bought some grey ones at the same time. They were the same but minus the fuzzy lining. I used those as tent slippers and they did end up knackered after a couple of years of shoving them in rucksacks and such.

You realize that you walk in thumbless oven mitts, right?

[buildafire]

Horrible stinkers. They look like that SB Huarache with a yoga sole.

Anyone skated the DC Penza? If so, are they any good or shithouse?

[buildafire]

They seem to be less than £30 everywhere. Maybe just take the gamble.

[wheelsofretrospective]

Nah CBF with that if they’re shit.

[buildafire]

I had to half size up in the Kalis, Legacy and Lynx anyway, if that helps. UK10.

[wheelsofretrospective]

Cheers, looking at the Lynx in addition but know they’re good. That career vs wheels meme also applies to shoes.

[ihatethegeneralpublic]

I’m skating the Kalis Lite’s at the moment and had to go half a size up, the Kalis were true to size for me. Not sure about the Penza though.

[wheelsofretrospective]

Aiite cheers, what are the Lites like to skate in?
