depends on how you use them. I have a pair of vans type slip ons that lasted me 3 years now, but I hardly do anything else but walk in them.
GATs are nicely durable, my stan smiths' sole fell apart after 2 years of continuous but modeate wear.
Can't tell much about higher-end sneakers, I'm kinda babying my CPs
Eli Parker
Thoughts I have gotten a few mixed reviews
Nicholas Myers
Same situation here, I've been wearing only vans for like 2 years and I feel like buying something different. Pic related or gazelles are what I'm thinking about
William Russell
Shoes Like Pottery
Christian Hernandez
i've had these for about a year now and they're still going strong, even after my dog started to go after them during his teething phase.
p.s. they're on sale right now, at least some of the colors are.
Joseph Torres
cop some Gazelles
Bentley Walker
Get better vans. Like pro skate versions. Or Vault ones.
Or Chrome shoes.
Ethan Garcia
you should tell us how much money you want to spend. really hard to suggest something otherwise
in any case don't buy
Isaiah Mitchell
Best sneaker coming through
Landon Green
I got some stans earlier this year and they've been solid.
Nicholas Reyes
I accidentally stepped in dogshit while wearing my Sambas and I'm really bummed about it. I cleaned them off and everything, but I REALLY fucking stepped in it, and the psychological damage is done so I'm probably going to toss them.
Should I buy another pair, or get something different? I'm stuck with these retarded Nikes I bought for $20 a year ago that were left forgotten in my closet, and I hate them. I look like a little kid.
Jonathan Baker
those are gay as shit
you should feed them to your dog, homie
Eli Murphy
i had green gazelles when i was a teenager in the mid-90s and i loved them so much, but they ended up being football hooligan-core by like 99
Connor Hughes
Timberland Groveton, comes in like 4 different colors.
Asher Hill
Looking for white shoes with no animal products. They are the best I could found, 99€ with a huge ugly tag in the back for some reason... Please help
Gabriel Morales
>football hooligan-core Thats considered Veeky Forums again now
Jump back on the Gazelle bandwagon (but get the OG ones like the pic)
James Harris
This site is really a terrible place to look for advice on high quality things, most people are very young and poor here. Like you said "actually good sneaker" and people are posting Nikes wow -- sweatshop mall stuff is going to wear out/look like shit just as rapidly as Vans.
It'll freak you out to spend so much, so get something really versatile, like these Ann Demeulemeester sneakers are really nice imo, better IRL than you would expect. Pretty safe but you don't want to spend a lot and regret it. Personally I wish I had just shelled out on a really great pair of $600+ boots earlier on but I didnt really like boots when I was younger for some reason. Expensive footwear is an investment as it essentially lasts forever as long as you don't do anything stupid; can vibram them or replace the soles as they wear out.
William Martinez
Yeah I shoulda mentioned like a couple hundred dollars at most. as based as Ann d is I can't afford her stuff
These seem cool any other opinions?
Jose Murphy
>Yeah I shoulda mentioned like a couple hundred dollars at most. as based as Ann d is I can't afford her stuff A couple of hundred might be enough if you keep an eye out, e.g. these would be great deal ($315) and they might take an offer a little lower grailed.com/listings/211795-Ann-Demeulemeester-Low-Sneakers They fit one size large so these would be good for a 42
Isaac Campbell
just cut it off?
Jackson Brooks
>wow you fucking suck. at least sell them if you're going to be a prick about it.
Robert Sanchez
Stop being retarded and wear your sambas
Carter Martinez
Shit
Cooper Lewis
I'm thinking about buying these what do you guys think?
Samuel Green
use a disinfectant and just wear your sambas or buy a new pair of shoes no offense but you sound pretty childish
Alexander Jackson
i like them w2c? also just cut the tag off if you don't like it
Adrian Young
The only way to cut it off properly would be to pay a shoemaker tho
They look cheap and i can only imagine 12yr olds wearing them
Ethan Murphy
i suggest some adidas skate shoes like pic related, gazelles or busenitz. mine have lasted for ages, they skate well and they look sick when theyre beat. bought some sockdarts not long ago, theyre comfy but make sure you go a skize down. i fell off my bike and tore a hole in the upper on the first day so if youre looking for durability, these aint the shoes youre looking for.
Liam Taylor
They're good quality. Guy just doesn't like how they look.
Ryder Kelly
these are alright
Blake Garcia
If you only want a cheap durable everyday sneaker just buy a pair of Cons you like.

Connor Collins

John Hernandez

Connor Smith

Lucas Sullivan
>I wanna stab him in the face and everyone who listens to his musics literally lyrics from his songs lmao 'What we hate in others we hate about ourselves' seems to ring true in this case
Gavin Turner
Considering the thread. Vans mte? Look for deals.
Gabriel Perry

You can thank mfa for making them their meme shoes of the decade, and in turn making them overpriced unobtanium.
Jayden Gomez

I have bad knees and have worn ugly as hell nike runners for a few years now because they don't hurt my knees for 4-5 months Thinking of moving onto nike Go walk 3's because they look a little better and are supposed to be good for joint pain But first I have to ask, are Gazelles good for someone with shitty joints who needs to walk a lot?
Dominic Perry
