What are you guys opinion on geo baskets?

Are they a meme or can you wear them legit?

Honestly?
I think the geobaskets are like the fucking dream.
They are so aesthetic on their own way and truly my one and only holy grail. If i ever capture this beauty i would wear them everyday :))))

Yeah man rick is like the best footwear brand atm

tech runners are better

Uh no they look like a fucking marshmallow u fucker

they seem to be getting played out now especially on fits they really dont belong in

but that being said when they work its great

Rick is king

They're a great shoe, in my opinion. I can't wear them with my wardrobe but when I see them in good fits, I couldn't imagine any other shoe taking their place. I prefer the earlier iterations that were very heavily inspired by the Nike Dunks but I think that's more nostalgia than anything.

I recently got the Tech Runners (they're still in the mail) and it'll be my first Rick piece. I doubt I'll go any further because his style really does only go well with his style, but I hope I can find a way to put his design to good use.

I have a pair of SS14 Suede Viscious Geos and they are excellent.
The OG B/W color pair are pretty loud, but all others look great (if you aren't short)

HAIRLINE ON LIFE SUPPORT

If You understand proportions, and have a wardrobe that can compliment the shoe, then they're fantastic. But too many people buy them just to flex and make them look horrid. They're also getting played out but hopefully people will forget about them soon.

As someone who has owned multiple tricky pieces. His geos don't go well with much, if you don't have a rick wardrobe I guarantee you'll regret that you didn't buy Ramones or Tech Runners instead because they'll look goofy with anything else.
If you have the money buy a pair of secondhand dunks they're much more wearable in almost every way. Hype aside.
Cargobaskets if you know what you're doing.

he's 55 u nerd

poor man eqts

I'm seeing those high top mastodon sneakers on sale all over. Does anyone know how they fit? I'm anywhere between a 9-10. Thinking of going for a 9.

Just message some sellers on grailed for their opinions on the sizing.

ebin

No one seems to be selling these particular sneakers

>will they ever learn?
If you are below 5"9 you shouldn't wear Rick. Look at proportions, they look literally like dark Christmas elves.

>Americuck designer
>good

>dark Christmas elves

this sounds like an amazing aesthetic desu

>high fashion footwear staple that's been popular for 10 years
>yeah mang they are getting played out totally lately
protip: just because you instagram feed shows more cool internet fashion kids wearing rick it doesn't actually mean something is getting 'played out' whatever the fuck that even means

Were the short-tongue geos from a certain season only, or are they still available from certain places? Sorry, I'm a Rick newb.

2010 I think was the season with them

I was gonna say Tim Burton presents the Asian Village People.

They're not really a meme. Most people don't even know what they are.

I'll post a pic of mine when I get home, I've had them for around 4 years. All black with white stapled sole, short tongue version. Sole is totally yellow at this point and breaking down lol. Don't even really wear them very often any more because the inner lining is starting to give away and the sole is very worn down almost exposing the staples.

i think they look better worn out, and I'm not a fan of the classic black/white colorway that is bought by all the memers and fuccbois of the Internet

im 5'9", can I pull of anything from rick?

This guy is 5'6", you can check out his fits

full rick always looks bad
especially on asians

the only excuse to go ricked out is if u actually work in the industry otherwise u look like a clown

...

rick does pull off full rick

arabs ruined gucci, chavs ruined burberry, niggers ruined streetwear.
Let's not pretend the mental associations we make between clothes and the people who wear them is a non-issue

Rick has much better shoes, my personal favs are his sock boots. Geobaskets are pretty played out and are more or less Rick's equivalent to a timb, too associated with streetwear.

DICK

BEPIS :---DDDD

a cobbler can ass one of those thin rubber stick on soles they put on leather soled dress shoes to give them more life

if these didnt have that shitty toecap id buy em. much better than ramones

In the age of globalization national identity doesn't have to mean anything. Not to mention Rick has been Parisian for something like 10 to 15 years now anyways, he's hardly to connected to American culture anymore.

Yeah, high fashion staple, like actually limited to people who sought out alternative, high end design. Rick footwear met the mainstream thru celebrities and has since been getting culturally associated as a class signifier in a similar way to LV or Gucci - rather than something that used to be primarily consumed on a more personal level for the sake of genuine interest.

It's not that the actual thing has been ruined in and of itself, it's that it's been re-appropriated and unfortunately sends out a different message than originally intended.

If you really felt like it you could take it off, there's leather under there.

Is 2017 the year Veeky Forums likes Rick again?

>that op-post
No, it's some fashion toddler discovering memes.

2017 will be about japanese designers

get a load of this newfag.
God, this board is awful

been here since 2009 m8

Yeah, sure thing, buddy.

I still have casemods dick pic saved on my old pc

Veeky Forums.org ∋ /fa
Veeky Forums.org != Veeky Forums.org/fa

Now git out or post shoe collection, faggot.

>post shoe collection
I don't own any dick overns, sorry

>I am poor and started browsing /fa since mid-2016
Like I did not know this from the begining.

>wearing rick ovens
>2017

nah sorry. Would rather wear CDG, Visvim WM, and OC over that crap

>t. I own neither
>t. meme-spilling toddler
This was my initial point. You think like all of these are "mai sekret klab", yet these were discussed on /fa since forever, and the decline in interest of real fashion (i.e. runways) is rather organic. You have just not seen /fa in its full glory, enjoy your shithole consisting of mfw-redditors.

Protip: separate pieces or even brands != fashion

>ROG is back
Is fa gonna be good again?

no

>You have just not seen /fa in its full glory, enjoy your shithole consisting of mfw-redditors.

Veeky Forums was never good to begin with.

Late-2013 was very good actually.
/rog/ was a form of epitaph, which has also disappeard after the time passed.
