Post em and r8 em lads. I'm in need of copping a pair of white sneakers, having trouble deciding between Stan Smiths, Reebok Classics, GATs (don't feel like dropping $400 on Margielas tho, looking for alternatives)
I'm open to others too, mostly looking for something versatile I can wear with mostly anything.
Where could I cop originals if I'm in the US? I hear they're all over in European thrift stores
James Bennett
search "bundeswehr sportschuhe" or something like that into german eBay google translate is your friend, there's a couple big eBay shops that sell them. the problem is, after shipping and converting eurobucks to burgerbucks a pair of new 30euro trainers can come out to 100usd. that's been holding me back from pulling the trigger
Jace Cox
just got reebok c85s very nice
Liam Allen
Most likely gonna buy Stan Smiths in a minute unless this thread yields something better
idk how i feel about the logo but the contour is nice
Logan Powell
Probably gonna cop these since I live in Canada and there aren't really alot of other options other than adidas shoes and literally everyone haves them. Thoughts?
Jordan Peterson
Those are bad...
Just get Stan Smith's if you're on a budget
Wyatt Harris

Jeremiah Wood

Ayden Flores
What about from this angle?
Easton Rogers
thoughts?
Thomas Johnson
Not bad at all, w2c?
Brandon Campbell
I've dug up a pair of white pumas from my closet that I haven't seen in almost a decade. They still fit well.
How do I wear them though? Does it matter what color pants and top you combo them with?
Tyler Fisher
Personally I think the only "rule" is to wear skinny/slim pants, other than that, nothing too crazy I guess, they are pretty neutral shoes
Nathaniel Hill
wow these are beautiful.
Gabriel Davis
i've been looking for some new ones myself and settled on all white smiths and epaulet tennis lows
Aaron Brooks
i was looking into buying GATs as an american a new pair runs you ~100 USD and takes like a month to ship
what are these
Robert Reyes
Is it worth it to buy shoes online without trying them on first? I live in Canada and most shoes are sold out in our stores, but I could get stuff shipped in from USA, I'm just worried that they might fit wrong, be too big, too small, look worse than pic... Have any of you guys ever ordered online? What was it like?
Jacob Price
honestly the only shoes i ever bought online just didn't look good on me they looked great on me in my head, and the product came through true to description, but it just wasn't me
if it is at all possible, try it on
Parker Evans
>go to store >"can I help you find something user?" >"n-no thanks just looking" >try on the same model shoe >buy it online
Christian Morgan
I'm torn lads. Left or right?
Bentley Rivera
Thanks, that's what I thought too, better to just buy the ones that I have the opportunity to try on
Caleb Jackson
left looks like a bowling shoe but right is uglier
Cooper Garcia
I wish I could do that, but the shoes literally aren't available in store, so I don't really have an opportunity to try them
Wyatt White
Right, the sole looks better and it's almost full white
Asher Evans
GATs are fine. You can always buy Margielas later down the line. I have both but I haven't broken in the MM pair yet. Here's an info poster I made last night for anyone interested.
Jayden Gray
did you buy your GATs new or used on german ebay
new cost twice as much but i'm not sure how used the used were (if they're beat up or were just army surplus) because it's all german
Tyler Taylor
I bought new from Grailed. I'd be scared about buying used for the same reason as you, but I've had my pair for 9 months and they aren't really that beat up yet. Go for used. As long as they aren't super raggedy you'll be happy with your purchase.
Zachary Watson
its fucking garbage what do you mean there are no other options have you tried online?
Jayden King
C/n? Veeky Forumsm
Joshua Reed
pls no
Juan Roberts
I wanted the og black colorway of these so bad but Nike fucked me in the ass so hard. They were sold out before they even went online
Nicholas Gutierrez
Yeah there are online, but only online, so I can't try them, and I don't want to order shoes that I don't know what they fit and look like irl (also I vary from a 10.5 to an 11, and sometimes it makes a big difference (too tight, too big))
Easton Carter
This is a great image user, good work!
Levi Williams
Bump
Aaron Watson
gets creaks relatively easily
Lucas Richardson
cop or no
Cooper Brooks
thoughts?
Liam Smith
I bought these recently. Did I get memed or are those good?
Jaxon Stewart
not personally a fan of the brown sole but yeah they're nice
had my Sambas about 7 years now and they're too comfy for words
Gabriel Howard
shittiest leather i have ever seen in my life. I don't even know if i can call it leather.
Dominic Rogers
I had OG GATs before and their leather was waaayy shittier. Sambas don't peel and crease so badly so I am okay with them.
Angel Nelson
I never had a bad leather experience before with some adidas but those sambas looks so cheap to me that i sent them back. I like the look of the shoes but really dissapointed about the quality of materials - But still, they seems to be durable.
Eli White
Spezial are better in term of materials (not in that color)
is it? sportsmansguide is sold out, grailed is a crap shoot, and eBay.de after shipping comes out to 100usd, not 55. i appreciate the effort and i like the fading between the replicas, but it seems a little out of date.
Jaxon Sullivan
Nice, Reebok makes some sick ass shoes
Christopher Lee
>black and gold hello bumblebee :)
Michael Edwards
I think gazelles sambas and specialzswill make a comeback. I already have my eyes on these
Anthony Perez
Great shoe, I have the milk ones from the Bleu de Paname collab and I'm super satisfied.
Adam Watson
These are so pretty in person, heavily debating on copping.
Juan Nelson

Austin Ward
Thrifted these about 6 years, didn't wear them untill not too long ago but kept them around just in case I'd eventually want to wear them. They are Bianco's but I don't think they are in production anymore.
Leo Butler

Jaxon Lewis
i got a pair recently. got a feeling they're gonna be a lot better in winter time. i like them, but they're more chunky than i'm used to.
Blake Wright
Yeah i used to wear really slim and low top shoes and this is feeling thicc af, and i'm a 3rd world shitter so winter is almost over.
