Besides, has there ever been any doubt as to the substantial imprint goth has left on my cultural makeup since the 80s? I wear all black all the time, for god's sake.

Cantankerous 10.05.2006 04:05 PM

No. No, they are not.

Nah, I forgave you. We all have our little (expensive) obsessions.

Last time I checked, GBX was not a huge clubber shoe brand.
They have a big padded front side and a zipper on the other side for easy removal.
I also do not tuck my pants into them.
Funny, I thought they were more borderline Kiss shoes than goth shoes.

Rob Instigator 10.05.2006 04:13 PM

those are motorcycle boots. if any goths wear them it is because they are black leather.

I will stick to my 12 hole oxblood steel toe doc martens. getting harder and harder to find DAMNIT!

lizzarddd 10.05.2006 04:18 PM

 

got all these for about a buck a piece. good times,

Savage Clone 10.05.2006 04:18 PM

If I am goth because of my shoes, is Rob a skinhead because of his?

These are the questions keeping me up at night.

Cantankerous 10.05.2006 04:20 PM

doc martens makes the best boots.

touch me i'm sick 10.05.2006 04:46 PM

Silent Dan Speaks 10.05.2006 05:19 PM

Chuck Taylors.

I go through a pair or two every year.

And I wear them in the winter too.

EricsTrip 10.05.2006 06:55 PM

A pair of used black shoes for work, $5.99 at the thrift store.

I don't wear my Chuck Taylors as often as I used to, so I haven't had to buy a new pair for two years.

Cantankerous 10.05.2006 07:07 PM

i've noticed that a couple of you have bought used shoes, and let me be the first to say:

ew.

Everyneurotic 10.05.2006 07:12 PM

It's not that bad. However, the are thrift stores in my city that sell used underwear. That's a line I refuse to cross.

Cantankerous 10.05.2006 07:34 PM

there's one i go to sometimes that has really great vintage dresses and also sells used undies/bras for $1 apiece.

HaydenAsche 10.05.2006 11:14 PM

Slip-on black canvas shoes with half-inch platform heels.

it's the same in this region. it's a teenager thing to wear DCs, Etnies, Emerica etc....I love Etnies nevertheless. It's my third pair up to date and been more than satisfied by the quality and durability.

worth the money definitely.

No crap! That's kinda like buying used socks and underwear! Somebody else's stinky feet were in those!!

gmku 10.06.2006 09:11 AM

You gotta wear what you wanna wear. It's a rule.

k-krack 10.06.2006 03:41 PM

some pair of red shoes with a white.. stripe... on the side. "ripcurl" it says on 'em. I'm not sure when.. but it was sometime near the beginning of Summer. Maybe earlier. They were cheep.

I know. I'm just saying they have heels. They are probably higher than 1/2".

Why would I want 5 3/4" heels?

Radioactive Poltergeist 10.06.2006 05:30 PM

I bought a pair of black chuck taylors about a year ago. The other pair of shoes I have are some old workmans boots which I've owned for about 5 years.

Only when the souls are torn from their berth will I buy some new ones.

It's only gross if they're really worn. A lot of used shoes are shoes people have only worn once or twice.
I would never buy someones nasty old ass sneakers.

A few years ago I had a lot more money and ended up buying a bunch of skate shoes (IPath, Vans, Savier etc) they're finally all wearing out. My favorite shoe I have style-wise are the 'old school' vans hi tops, but their soles are so thin and uncomfortable.
