you realize we have to fight to the death now, yes?  :( :( :D

I have thought the respectable course of action would be disemboweling myself. But being as this happened years ago and it is my greatest regret in life, I was trying to impress a woman, I’m hoping you’ll let it slide.

I personally like adidas.

Agree with the comments on the check taylors. Might as well wrap my foot in burlap. I remember about 8 or 9 years ago I went to get a pair of Taylors just for the nostalgia in it. Couldn't believe how cheaply made they were but the price wasn't much less than other shoes that offer good soles, support etc..

Now every fuckin millennial and gen Z in my gym wears them. Which I really don't mind but nothing says douche bag like a guy in a suit wearing chuck taylors.

Chucks are around $55 now.

They were the most popular athletic sneaker back when I was in high school.

Then they cost $15 which was a lot.

I had $2 sneakers from Woolworths Grants.  They sucked.

Chucks are around $55 now.

They go up to double that depending on the style.

Only because they are popular and trendy for phags.

I had a pair when i was a young lad, never considered wearing them as an adult.

But i see dozens of phags wearing them on a daily basis.

They cost $12.00 in my area as a kid....very expensive for the time period.

They are my gym sneakers. I don’t want a raised, soft sole for lifting.

What “support” are people talking about?

Yep, the cool kids had them but I had $2 sneakers from Grants.

I did get some Chucks later on in life but was surprised how they actually were...no arch support.

Bought some Chuck knockoffs at WallyMart for $20 and use them for deadlifts.

I have a special edition custom made Chuck taylor;  the most uncomfortable shoes I have aver wore lol
 but the most compliments you could ever get from chicks as well   

Some people fry their organs and starve themselves in order to get attention from chicks... I could wear the damn shoes for a few hours on a bad weekend   lol


But seriously, a thread whining about Converse  ?

Shoes are overrated ! be an Alpha, Go barefooted danmmit


Liver King will be so disappointed at some Getbiggers


WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Never owned a pair think the west side barbell guys made them popular think it was maybe Dave Tate said they best shoes for squatting in I may be remember wrong? I like to own just a single pair of trainers and make them last years, they get worn for everything gym, pub ect
