Shoes

Yeah, not quite something I could pull off but I think this is closer to what i’m after as opposed to sports brand foam running stilts.
I just wish those Mephisto Rainbows were a little more padded on the heel. It’s a lot of money to pay out to only find out that they give me horrendous blisters within a day.

Oi Polloi did a collaboration with them a few years ago in sensible colours that you can still find on eBay.

I am tempted to buy those Ipath Cats and get some nice insoles.
I’m sure someone on here bought some. Come on, let’s see you!

Google is telling me it’s owned by a private equity firm but Kenny Reed is involved. Hmmm.

I would recommend the Last Resort mocs (like the Cats, another Clarks homage) as I find them insanely comfy, they’re really soft thick suede and they have those good comfy insoles that Last Resort are now using, but I know there’s a weird consensus of opinion on here that Last Resort suck so I’ll keep quiet

Ah yeah, I did see those but wasn’t sure. If they are comfy then that’s worth looking into.

Also they’re not super chunky like Ipaths so you can wear them with normal trou as if they were actual Clarks without having to worry about ankle gather trauma

Just looking at comparisons and i’ll be honest, the Cats look so much more aesthetic, the shape is loads better. I think the achilles padding would be loads better too. I like them both!
hmmm. Good shout though man! Appreciate it.

Nah Last Resort are good they last ages and they’re comfy, just a bit too flat for chillers.

These are pretty tasty, Pod vibes.

Yeah I treat myself if I see Mephistos on sale. Got three pairs not too wild.

Anyone got a scan of that really old Simple ad that said “Damn, those are ugly”?
Seems appropriate

We’re heading dangerously towards (The Sopranos) Paulie’s white shoes here

Just took a plunge on the Cats. I’m hoping to get them before a gig and traipsing around London on Saturday. Probably won’t get them in time though

He hates shoelaces :grin:

Sexy them

Even if the laces are dry and even if you dont touch the body of the shoe, bacteria and viruses migrate from the sole up.
