let's talk about old/weird(?) sneakers

[e0d9n0b5]

Probably Nike Air _______ with a "tough" sounding name, they were everywhere before. Sole kinda looks like the Pulverize BG with the swoosh on the heel.

 

Anyone know how footscapes fit compared to other nikes? Woven or otherwise

 

tts except they're 'short' i.e. very little vertical room inside the shoe

Valentino trainers  

 

Are you hurt? Here is some rep to ease the pain. That isn't going to stop all the moneyed gays of the fashion world from using it as their universal shoe.

What's the brand thats similar to foot the coacher, also stocked at the Soloist store in tko but it has a little winding disc mechanism at the back? Can't for the life of me remember but I figure this is the best thread to ask... pretty sure they have been featured here before.\

 

EDIT: nvrmind... Spectus Shoe Co, I WANT to like them but don't.

I've come to know those as "The International Power Shoe of Choice of Business Gays".

only person i've seen wearing them is a douchey-ass chinese guy in school. altho his could potentially be fake or smth iunno

Alien Stomper.

Any other brands on a Hender Scheme type tip out there? i.e. specialist shoe (sneaker) brand, good quality, looks nice, not a big or luxury brand and relatively hard to get? Searching for something new in this genre.

not so much in the way of sneakers, but foot the coacher, british remains (they do a lot of exclusive jap collabos), needles/nepenthes - lots of in house designs made by obscure heritage factories. Nepenthes' blog has a good list of shoes, some of which are soloist collabos and stuff. http://neptokyo-news.jugem.jp/?cid=10&PHPSESSID=1e97460eb83547a3b2fc211e4b84c5e8

 

The first sand w man / soloist shoe was sold at nepenthes. Two boot styles, both covered in tree sap at the welt for waterproofing then left in a warehouse for over a year. Overpriced, weird, and cool.

Junya Watanabe Duck Boots 

[drgitlin]

Those seem to be stretching the term 'sneaker' (although they are impressively ugly).

Weird Boots?

[SSchadenfreude]

Weird Boots?

no, there is no use of "weird" in the boots thread's title, just as there is no "boots" in this sneakers thread's title.  

 

just post  boots in the boots thread ("weird" or not...thats subjective anyway).

[conqueror]

end and haven had those for like 60% off because no one wanted them.
