I'm one of those guys now
>>18244477Cute, how many times a week do you get your bussy wrecked?
>>18244477I used to be one of those guys. somehow exclusively to converse my knees get all fucked up with them but any other shoe is fine I don't get it.
op here>>18244520i'm not a homosexual>>18244536been testing them for the past hour or so, and they feel comfortable enough to me
>>18244477>grandma bought me $20 fake converses my whole life>held 8 years>got my first job, bought real ones (leather)>broke the same month
>>18244477I bought low and high versions of this but in brighter, nicer colours. I'm starting to despise drab colours. I didn't realise you had to break them in first, I guess all my other shoes have had padding on the back, because I wore the low ones when I walked to the shopping centre to do my weekly grocery shopping (I am a NEET shut-in) and as I was coming home the back of my ankles started hurting, but not that much so I ignored it. When I got home I realised I had got blood on my shoes and it fucked up the back of my ankles. I just wore bandaids on that spot till they were broken in and now they're fine.Do you have new experiences like this, /fa/?
>>18244477what guys? a 13 year old?
>>18244477I love the way they smell.
>>18244477Random factoid: every Frank Miller comic book/ movie has a character who wears a pair of theseIt’s the spirit in the spirit and the mute/ deaf Cannibal in Sin city’s
>>18244477They're garbage. Started coming unglued and falling apart after 3 months of normal use. It's ironic, because the $7 fake ones I bought for deadlifting (that later became my daily shoes) in are still perfectly fine after almost 18 months.
>>18244477Until they break in and get a bit dirty they remind me of clown shoes every time I look down.
>>18245215I had the same experience. All my "Converse-style" tennis shoes have lasted ages, but somehow the pair of actual Converse I had had their sole come unglued when I'd barely worn them.
>>18244959catchball has way way way better bright colors than converse. https://catchball.krhttps://global.musinsa.com/us/brands/catchball>Do you have new experiences like this, /fa/?happens to me on leather heel counter sneakers/shoes. i just pre-bandaid that spot and avoid no-show socks for the first month of wearing. should go away on its own with some break in but can be caused by heel slip or wrong size if it doesn't. lacing tighter can help. re-lacing in some specific ways can also reduce heel slip.
>>18244477One of them homio-sexuals?
>>18244477I used to wear these a lot when I was younger, they disintegrate in less than a year so I moved on to boots. They have a nice shape though
I THINK I'VE BECOME, ONE OF THE OTHERS
>>18244477I bought one pair I really liked until I discovered wide toe box shoes (so-called "barefoot shoes"). I can't wear them long term now, the toes are too tight. >>18244520Not enough. I really feel this comment. Wearing them makes me feel young and sexy
>>18244520don't be mad that cons look better than the vast majority of shit footwear pushed on this board lmao.
>>18245215I have had pairs of the Chuck 70s that lasted well over 2 years with constant wear.
>>18246614I'm not at all mad, I live to see cute twinks wearing cons <3
>>18246617Nta but I remember putting holes in the soles of all mine within 8 months or so of owning them, and that was just from walking like at most 10k steps a day. It's a material durability issue
I've been a shoes like pottery faggot for 10 years
yes im 100% hetero how could u tell
>>18246914must be the way you walk. while I didn't wear them every single day since i need safety toes for my job, I lived in them practically every other moment. and that includes at least a few miles of walking, or riding escooters with grip tape.
>>18247398Ask me how I know you like traps.God damn Converse is for Zoomers and homos.
>>18247451>God damn Converse is for Zoomers and homos.bruh they were invented in 70s or something
>>18249453>bruh they were invented in 70s or somethingKek, It goes way back. 1907 IIRC.
>>18249453They were a early 20th century shoe made for playing backetball on hardwood courts. Anyone who wears them for daily use and walking around is a prole tbqh. They are meant for playing basketball in 1930 on a hardwood court. if that. If anything, they are actually most suitable for boating, because there is such a flimsy thin outer sole, its perfec for contouring the hull of a sail boat surface.>muh feet hurt from chucks from walking in them every day all dayno shit, unless you have duck feet, then you are a prole so its a wash
>>18249672Prole? Are you mixing up your generic insults? Nobody is confusing converse for formal wear.
