I know they're not everybody's style but the best pair of shoes I've had in the last decade have been from this obscure brand.

$69 right now is pretty reasonable for what you get imo

Middle one is the kind of style I'd wear. They look good

I yearn to look like Kaname Chidori from full metal panic. Pink flashy trainers complete the look

It's ok us youngs still say that.

I have a pair of their 'Snipers' and my biggest complaint is they've held together so well they have never got that "broken in" feeling.

you mostly walk around urban areas? the photo looks like a hiking trail, curious how it might hold up since i tend to wear trail runners

[-] Sulvor@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

Yeah that pair is very much not a trail shoe. They're basketball shoes, but I mostly wear them at my indoor, on my feet all day job.
