neither

>>13372720
why get converse when every alternative is preferable?

>>13372720
all I'm asking is for you to reconsider before throwing your money away

>>13372720
the options are limitless and the quality is inevitably better

>>13372720
I mean, unless you absolutely want to be bland, predictable, and develop back and knee problems

>>13372720
I think you get the point by now, but I've got a couple more pics in my folder

Ok I'm leaving you on this; don't make a hasty decision and remember to forget about converse; they're the ray bans of canvas shoes

Lovely thread I must say.
These are my grails, waiting fo the price to go down because I'm not made of money but I've got expensive taste :(

>>13372778
post names of good canvas sneakers brands

>>13373470
Moonstar, Doek, Keds, PF Flyers, Pras, Bata, Novesta.
Just stay away from converse and shit like pottery

>>13373519
Doek and pottery are made by the same company.

>>13373540
Musto and HH are both owned by the same company, what's your point?

>>13373546
Just kindly explain the difference between doek and pottery besides different models.

>>13373801
If you wanna buy tacky blue branding go right ahead

>>13373839
Anything else that sets them apart? Quality / construction / consistency in sizing etc?

>>13373851
doek's sole is thicker than pottery and and has cork insole.
pottery is made by moonstar but is ugly (devil is in the details hiding in plain sight).

>>13373902
Retard who thinks hes cutting edge because he hates on servacable shoe brands for barely different "indie" alternatives.

You contrarian dilweed

Good comment anon

>>13374332
hahahahaha are you serois ?

>>13374534
>name calling is a form of critique

oh sorry didn’t realize you were serious

some designs are iconic for a reason, is everyone here just a knee-jerk contrarian hipster? wtf is up with all these artisan 1000-times-folded japanese shoemakers?

>>13374522

Fashion is supposed to be fun - to try different combinaisons of shapes and textures when the occasion arises. Just because someone isn't interested in looking like a basic bitch, doesn't necessarily make them contrarian. Converse might be an established icon, it's also obvious and predictable. Variety is the spice of life. Step out of your comfort zone and have fun with your look, or not, it's really up to you.

>>13374843
I really don't see the problem here; what's your beef?

>>13373436

what are some converse alternatives that are anywhere near the same price range? hearing that a $200 fancy japanese sneaker has better construction than a $75 sneaker is no surprise desu

jesus christ just delete this thread. converse are classic shoes for a reason, you can post ugly as FUCK converse knockoffs that are usually twice the price of normal converse and they will never look 1/100th as good as regular classic converse.

Why are you so salty We're just enjoying ourselves over here. I hope you dont have to unbunch your panties every time you see a pair of jeans that ain't Levi's. I'd also suggest you take a page from >>13374858's book

>>13377160
PF Flyers seem to be the agreement around these parts that they're as cheap but much more comfortable. Bata would be in that same category.
>>13377965
no U

>>13377214
Those are both designs that I put together in the customizer. Hard to tell from the pic but the left are canvas and the right are leather, although I'm not particularly attached to those material choices; just what I had open when I was playing with designs.

>>13377160
>>13378064
I had the same thought after looking at all these meme shoes. It's too bad PF Flyers are butt ugly and still made in China, and once you get to their made in America stuff you're looking at double the price of Converse again.

>>13372720
Right. I have a thing against dark colored shoes
