what the F guys I thought we hated Valentino but I guess it's okay if it's a member with 4000 posts (sarcasm implied)

"we" meaning who (3 people?)?  i've never made any such comment.  the ones you've posted 1 page ago had actually already been posted a while back anyway

Oh sorry I was directing that towards everyone (3 people). I posted a Valentino trainer (which I didn't even really like) then some guy with duck avatar posted something witty saying they were gay and for Chinese people, Which is kinda offensive but whatever I don't want to start a pointless argument over the internet.

i don't hate valentino actually.

i was never particularly fond of the vintage-type runner with the stud heel stabilizer BUT it definitely qualifies as something that belongs in this thread, just as most of the other posted output does.

that aside *i* had only seen them on chinese douche in school as i said before

and more recently on (go figure) an extremely wealthy gay businessman (banker i think? his partner works manages hermes' local merchandising or smth i can't remember). 

with that in light there has to be a distinction between hating something and simply remarking on what you know its context to be. willkhitie (duck avatar) and myself said what we knew the trainers as but never actually said we hated them. there is a big difference, yknow. 

+ again they do objectively fit the bill to go into this thread imo. so yeah! i've +repped some shit in here that i would never wear or even really "like" but it's all about qualifying as "weird" so to speak

regards

the ones you posted have been out for like 3 yrs or something too

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

just found these
there's an odd brown pair on a white sole floating around somewhere too

[FatCook]

^ kinda reminds me of a pair I had ages ago when school made it mandatory to wear black shoes/sneaks

 

somewhat regret throwing em out. Anyway, these cons x hancock va sort of qualifies I guess with the outer sleeve thing

alot of the shit hes post in this thread  have been posted, OR aren't even sneakers

[WillKhitie]

I still fucking hate Valentino trainers. Hate them like I hate somebody cashing in with left over pyramid studs from 2008.

 

Other than them just spinelessly getting in late like Lanvin, the creepy gay fashion dude association doesn't help them for me at all. Creepy old industry guys from Manila, rapey-looking Chinese buyers in Paris. 

 

Regardless of where I go, it feels like the same click of people are attracted to these, and it just adds a gross facet to something I already ideologically hate.

[SSchadenfreude]

[eloq]

 

and seems like they are re-releasing these

Found this on Gary Warnett's blog. Plenty of old and weird.

 

There's Air Revaderchis amongst other things I can't ID. (AFs, AMs, there's supposedly Raids there too)

^ pretty sure those were posted before. Anyway, rick x adidas high tops/moon boot things. Heck most of SS15 would probably qualify here.

Have you seen the rest of the line-up/is it up anywhere online? Heard so many retailers going balls deep on the spring blades. I still have no clue what in the world they're seeing.

 

EDIT: Well, now that we're here anyways.

 

 

 

 

And something to coincide with the Superstar push this year...

^ luisaviaroma have a pre-order section up already, haven't seen much on other sites yet. 

 

in terms of adidas colabs, these seem nicer

Picked up a pair of these SFB Trainers for $20 at a Ross. Not bad.

 

 

 

They also had some of these Huaraches in small sizes:

 

[bankvonlondon]

So, does anybody know how the 'ZVEZDOCHKA' fits?

 

[drgitlin]

Like Crocs, but at 10x the price.
