I’ve gotta say, these shoes are super good. Been wearing them for a few weeks now and it’s time to put super glue down the two bits on the front and then for some reason I’ll feel like JB Gillett

Honesty confused by the tiny swoosh on the side of the toe trend Nike is doing. It’s so aesthetically unappealing and feels like a mistake every time I see it. Is anyone asking for that?

these go for 650 on Stockx now lol

This was my first pair of dunks, got them in a thrift store in Atlanta for $15 in 2007.

Almost bought a pair for $120 a few months back but couldn’t bring myself to spend over $100 on 15+ year old shoes .

They are shoving the Nike tick in your face as much as they can??

For their skate line it's new, but IIRC, it's not really something new for them. I think they did that with at least a few running shoes from the mid to late 90's.

Pretty pointless to put them on an area that is going to be subject to serious abrasion. But maybe it's a passive aggressive way one of the designers is getting back at the swoosh?

I agree though, not an aesthetically pleasing placement at all.

Anyone have the chuck taylor mids.  Curious if the white is that ultra white or the cream/off white color.    Can’t really tell from online pics

bought these off of a homie who won them at a contest for a decent price and left them in storage for years. but i am pretty hyped on them now. they skate really really well right out of the box and they appear very durable. also, since i like to lace my shoes rather tightly, i appreciate the snug fit of those with the sock and all. they do get a little hot in summer though and putting them back on with sweaty socks is pretty hard. overall pretty good, would buy again (for the same price).

I got these on deck. I wish they had the OG tongue but I'm stoked on the new half cabs. I think these are like my 5th pair of the halfcabs in a row. Always wanted this colorway.



Still skating these. Not getting too many sessions in because I have a six month old and work and responsibilities, but the new half cabs really do last. I've been skating these for a bit and they barely look like I even skated them.



I've definitely said screw it I'm just skating half cabs for the rest of my life in the past but this time I'm pretty sure I am going to. I think there's a forest green with a black tongue coming out. I hope they're the half cab 92 and they have the puffy tongue.

Half cabs are great and all, but shoutout Birkenstocks.

Back to the 00s...D3s are even bigger than I remember. Bought these as occasional wear semi-ironic chillers, not sure if i'll ever actually wear them, but they're comfy as hell.

I do wish they would embroider the half cab logo on the heel like they did on the ogs. I hate the look of the tag hanging off and it's almost unavoidable.

I took a seam ripper and pulled the tags off in about a minute.

Yes, this is so dope. I wanted to semi-ironically buy a pair as well but just couldn’t justify it at $80-90 from
Zumiez lol

I want the cab logo there and for it not to come off but I'm also an unreasonable obsessive.

With all of the recent Emericas I have to go down half a size. Same thing with Vans. On the other hand, DC is one of the few brands where the vulc and cupsole models are tts. Though I do have a skinny foot.
