If someone wants to form some kind of judgment about me based entirely on what shoes I'm wearing, I could give a shit less what that idiot thinks about anything.�

You will be judged by what you're wearing at any real job interview you will ever have.
No, common DanDan, immediately allow real life to take the back seat, and wear puffy tongued skate shoes to any, and every, social and business situation you'll ever find yourself in for the rest of your life, and if things start to go south for you after the age of 25, merely raise your middle finger at the rest of the world, laugh, and generally just don't give a fuck.
Unlike Mr. DanDan, some of the people in here seem to be pretty detached from reality in a serious way. These people
may be in for some hard knocks, and a few disappointments, along the way.
And to further address the highly intelligent and worldly individuals who didn't seem to appreciate my now highly controversial remark about opting to wear adidas and cons, because i prefer not to look like a 14yo, well, yes, that's still true. Skateboarding is merely one facet of my life, as it tends to become increasingly marginalized with age, responsibility, and other interests, and if that wasn't enough of a reason to NOT wear fallen, DC, Lakai, DVS, or Emerica etc. shoes on, or off, a board, then aesthetics easily are enough of a reason. Also, it's less about how people who I don't even know, or care about, would judge me, but it's more of a personal choice to not look like a douche. But, no, once again you are right, I should just resign myself to looking like a douche for the rest of my life, or at least the for-see-able future, as Scorpion1001 and Cold Pizza have done, just for the sake of supporting skater run/owned companies.
