When It's Time For New Shoes...

[Tokitoki]

...where does everyone go to look? Ive kind of backed myself into a corner in a sense. I got a pair of those Etnies ATHF shoes and now I have to keep up with the flashier shoes I feel. My friends all say that I can't just go back to normal shoes. Ive looked at the line-ups from companies like Etnies, DC, Adidas, Nike, etc but cant really make up my mind.

For reference here's a picture of my current shoes:

So Im looking for something like these. I know there must be other people around here that know where to look for a replacement.

Not helpful... but when my shoes wear out, I go to the Puma outlet and see if they have Drift Cats in a color I like, and buy another pair.

Possibly slightly more topical... I like checking outlets in general. Sometimes you find real dogs, sometimes you find real winners. And usually for cheap.

zappos

free overnight shipping, free returns for up to a year (unworn). i like their search/filter thing.
reviews are good too.

[Diamicles]

Damn.

I love ATHF, but there's no way I'd wear those ugly ass things

Seriously though, just go to zappos, they have everything you could want.

Do an image search for Atmos shoes.

It's a Japanese company that makes flashy variations of other company's shoes.

Edit: here's their site: http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/atmos-tokyo/

i was looking for a topic in similiar interest. but i been buying all my shoes at outlet stores and the swap shop instead of footlocker and whatnot. but lately im finding better deals at ebay. has anyone ever purchased shoes from any merchants from ebay? i cant find any useful info/reviews on it in particular. ive never done it and i cant help but feel a but skeptical since no prices are ever too good for no reason.

what made me even consider this is, i have size 14 1/2 feet. its hard to find shoes like this available in the stores i go to ;

these are the shoes im trying to get. luckily this is the shade of blue i was looking for to go with my blue tee, but god. i just dont wanna buy it and find scuffs or anything.

oh no you di'int. *z snap*

i wasnt always like that, but as i grew up, i realized how nice it is to dress up looking good once in a while lol. when i was in high school, id wear the same predictable clothes all the time!

Oh yes I did.

These

shoes

shoes

Are not, "dress up looking good".

There is a simple test to this shit.
Would James Bond wear it?
If the answer is no, you are not stylin'.

well ok

Shoes.

huh wait? back it up.

Would James Bond wear it?

one more time

Would James Bond wear it?
If the answer is no, you are not stylin'.

but your 1st quote was this?

Shoes.
Where black men become women.

how am i going to take you serious now? thats still a contradiction even it is a slight one. james bond stylin'? that sounds more "woman"ish than me wanting jordans M6's just to match my shirt.

im myself. not some guy on MTV or BET and i dress what i feel looks and makes me feel good lol. idc what james bond wears.

besides. shoes happen to be 1 step into looking good. just because other guys who act like they're getting manicures buying shoes, doesn't really make that stereotype give any justice at all, especially if you run that on me. but its all good, i have a sense of humor!

I mostly just wear shoes made specifically for tennis. I am extremely hard on my shoes, on and off the court, so I go for shoes with warranty's. Nike, and Adidas have some of the best shoes with 6 month warranty's.

Nike Court Balistics 1.3 come in a few different colors.

Nike Cage II's come in a few different colors.

Adidas Barricade 5's come in a few different colors.

and Adidas Genius.

All of these have 6 month warranty's on the outsole, so Wear them for 5 months, then take some sandpaper and wear down the toebox on the bottom, send them in, and get a new pair for free.
