I vote one. And wear them until they fall completely apart. The aren't worn in until you have to tape them together somewhat

Two. Converse are cool I guess, but they are extremely uncomfortable in my opinion. Vans can come out with pretty stupid looking shoes sometimes, but these are pretty nice.

save your coin & splurge in a strong mind

I voted two, I think they're perfect for you.

king_buzzo 01.21.2008 03:56 PM

!@#$%! 01.21.2008 03:56 PM

i hate converses. they are unconfortable as fuck. a retro relic for hipsters.

king_buzzo 01.21.2008 03:58 PM

^ i find them convortable, but i've worn them the past 3 years so im kinda sick of them.

gualbert 01.21.2008 04:03 PM

that thin sole and the banana shape foot are not for me

shoe technology has evolved since the 20's.

I have to admit I like the converse high tops, even though I think Pumas and Airwalks (sort of the old school skater preference) are a bit more versatile and comfortable. My everyday knockabout shoes are green suede Pumas. Can you find Pumas or Airwalks in your neck of the woods? I think they'd also be cheaper than the Converse.

#2 for sure. I like the vans slip ons but tons of people have them, so I guess the laces will do.

Chuck Taylors are cool as fuck, obviously, but they're one hell of a cliche.

For many years, this was my footwear of choice:

 


But I hand painted a Fila logo on mine, to take the piss out of all the people who were buying stupidly expensive trainers.

same, my foot is too hobbit-like for them.

The second Vans are good shoes. They make an all black pair which are cool. But, check your K-mart or Big W or the likes, as here you can get identical shoes as that, and I mean identical just without the Vans logo (they have no logos or brands on them) for like $8. Unfortunately they don't make my size in them, they only go to 12.

Those are likeeee sort of dull imho no offense!
COP THIS SHIV
 

Norma J 01.21.2008 07:36 PM

I'd never wear them.

# 3 like a million times over.

wait are you a guy or a girl.

cons are cuter on girls. vans are cuter on guys.

unless you're a fag or a dyke. ahah. then maybe its the other way.

the second pair of vans are gross.
