The Sneakers we wear with our jeans

[Double 0 Soul]

Correct me if i'm wrong @Geeman .. but the last time i dropped by this thread, i'm sure your second image down at the top of the previous page was in landscape, it had been in landscape for months, now it's in portrait? so not only are you having issues posting in the correct orientation, the forum is flipping your old images.

No mate, that's the original orientation

Something completely out of left field. Swung by the new Self Edge Austin location last weekend for their opening day and picked up a pair of Rick Owens sneakers.
If you would've asked me 5 years ago if I would wear Rick Owens I probably would've laughed at you.

@Broark must say they caught my eye too... they look pretty robust?

[Broark]

@MJF9 Very hefty and well made, they feel much more like a shoe / boot as opposed to a sneaker.

[Maynard Friedman]

Is that the $760 pair @Broark 😳

[Broark]

@Maynard Friedman Maybe...just don't tell my wife.

Who's laughing now?! 😅

Based on this I don’t see SE Austin being a good thing for you in any way haha. 

[chicote]

Worst case scenario @Broark, the SE Austin guys can probably build you a small apartment behind the shop...

I think this design is a lot more understated and not flashy at all.
I used to exclusively think of Rick Owens from the goth-ninja perspective. Guys like this.

Now that the sun has finally started to break through the perma-cloud cover over London, I thought I'd throw away my old, worn-out green/orange Delphins and replace them with this orange/aqua pair. Hopefully they’ll put a spring in my step for Spring!

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Very late to the party...

Didn't really got the info these Nike Killshot 2 became available outside of J Crew and would be available in Germany. They were even on sale.

they will replace my Veja soon, as those are pretty hammered. Also same colorway.

nice pair, these remind me of the trainers Tom York of Radiohead used to wear back in the mid 90s, guess they were Skechers...

feels like 90s Thom Yorke would have worn Nose.. anyone remember those?

I recall a written interview where he was described as having "stepped into a pair of small hovercraft"

now he wears a lot of Rick Owens so it's likely that he wears these sneakers too. 

[Sympathy-For-The-Denim]

its "Thom Yorke" of course 😔

found those on Ebay:

I'm cool with some of the 90's things that have come back, but eesh, I was no fan of ^ when I was 14 and it's one of the more rare things that I feel I was right about at that age.
