The other shoes thread

[McCly]

Any recommendations for a good shoe for walking? Obviously more supportive than a skate shoe, that still looks sick, and isn't crazy priced? So far from what I've seen I like the look of the Nike Free Rn, Asics Gel Lyte III and a couple others.

Adidas Alphabounce is the best shoe for the money that most hypebeasts won't buy first. If you can get NMDs, those are the overall best for a little more. Adidas just dropped a bunch this past weekend and I ended up splurging on three pairs. No regrets. Boost is bae. 

[Deekay]

are those the shifters? fucking sick

They're the Kr3w Franklins! I really wish I could get ahold of another pair... I finally got some shifters too though and they're great.

i know someone was talking about a skateable chelsea boot for a little while, but i just scored these for $23 for hanging out in but they look pretty skateable.

That was probably me, I've been raving about it for a solid couple of years. I've been wearing nothing but different kinds of leather boots since I got my motorcycle cause it's just convenient for not getting burnt and shit, I take it going skating too so.. Those look great though, I've found those kinds of chelseas to have super stiff soles, are those alright?

Anyway, these are my favorites so far for skateable boots:

Plus I got extra hyped on leather boots after seeing this picture of Dylan. Anyone else a boot guy?

honestly i've worn them maybe two or three times. they're not that great, not really comfortable, i haven't tried to skate them. but yeah they are pretty stiff.

the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned

Got these for chilling in, gonna use them for pick up at the park eventually
2016 Crazylight Boost "Ghost Pepper"

The boost is so comfortable

Those look sick. I just got a pair of black primeknit busenitz boosts on sale for 65. Boost is so comfortable, perfect for after skating. If it weren't so unstable it would be really good as the midsole of some skate shoes.

[Sk.A.T.A.N]

Those crazylight boost must be really good confort wise since they are performance shoes. I was really stocked with the design features of them when they were released, it was a breath of fresh air in the adidas BBall stuff.

This last summer I've been in a Adizero running vibe. I have 3 pairs of the Adios Boost 3, this Black/Orange, White/Blue/Red and Blue/Mint. (they run really narrow so I would go halfsize up on these at least).
They feel soooo good and are so breathable, you also have the good boost feeling but more stable than an ultra or pureboost that can feel too wobbly sometimes. The design is pretty classic aswell which I really like. 


I also have a pair of Takumi Ren but they are a little too small so I dont wear them too often.


And just bought this Consortium edition of the Adios 2 from Ebay this weekend. No boost but I love the silhuette and the Colorway so I'm really stoked on it.

I'm looking into these, they look nice, but they're a pretty big price tag for me. Do they seem like they'll last?

Quality seems to be there, nothing to complain.

anybody tried the adidas Iniki?

i kinda like the silhouette but can't really tell how they look in foot! SK.a.t.a.n maybe???

Iniki's are sick! I really want a pair but I they always sell out in my size.
But yeah, I've tried samples and I think they fit a little loose, because that upper is really unconstructed.
I'm usually between sizes, 9 and 8,5us depending on the model, this one I would go with the 8,5.
Silhouette wise they are really aggressive, with that sharp toe shape and no toe spring, I really dig it. Classic look with a modern twist.

just got a couple pairs of these clae shoes .. so pleased

after looking at the shoe for a bit i ended up not liking the silhouette that much.....walked into a footlocker a couple weeks back and they had a sale on the adidas ultra boost- got the basic black with a white sole and love them!

Is it ok that I like these?

this was a skate-ish lifestyle brand in the early 00's right?  how long have they been back around?

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

not the sexiest of sneakers but I just got a pair of these for super cheap and they are essentially slip-on pillows for your feet:

[Sad Hippo]

Cool thread. Can't wear skate shoes all the time anymore.
Metcon 3


Vomero 13.  These are the most expensive shoes I've ever bought besides some Redwing boots I needed for work. Worth it though.

Grabbed these the other day, super comfy. Finally reached the point that I've come to realize it's okay to not constantly wear skate shoes.

I just retifed my 574’s on black/white colorway, so nice shoe. Homie gave me these and I’m super stoked about them, like pillows on my feet and I somehow like that they feel a bit unstable so my ankles have to work more.

[SOTY]

Bought these and I'm in foot heaven. I've only had flat soled shoes for the past 10+ years so this level of comfort is shocking to me. Tanjun

Famous Footwear/Shoe Carnival have tons of the Tanjun in the US. The price is right too.

Homie has the hook up at Kohl's    and I got these for half of

Super comfortable just what I needed for chilling/Walking around in
