Good job, /fa/, 5/10, you made me waste $40 on a shitty pair of annoying shoes. So funny. Clap.

Acrylic paint. Just took the laces out and went at it.
On the rubber it flakes off while the paint on the canvas just rubs off. I kinda like the look of it.

Little pricey for my tastes. Most I will spend on a sneaker is 300ish. (especially since my sneakers get beat up fast)

not really, any preference at this level of pleb is basically just that; personal preference.

black vans slip on/lace up are slightly better imo. these look way too much like little kid/girl/skinny nerd shoes. not hideous though.

Only time I have so far is when I was wearing them and ended up having to walk through some snow.
Probably will have to again in the future though. They're starting to look pretty worn. Much more than in that picture.
So yes, but for right now they're at a pretty good spot. Paint has lasted pretty well for a few months and acrylic paint is cheap.

Well, not speaking exclusively of looks here. I mean that's the basic gym shoes, I wear them when I expect to walk in the places I don't want to my footwear to get messy: beaches, back-alleys of parks, etc. Converse fit (my) foot much better, feels relaxed whereas Vans are kinda bulky, by fit and look both.
Slipons are the best option overall, I agree.

But it just looks like a leather boot. Like, it looks like it would fit in perfectly with my grandpa's regular wardrobe. Not that it looks bad, but it doesn't look good either.

It's a leather boot, and somebody is making a shit ton of profit off of idiots like you.

In fact, I might become one of those somebodies.

>> No.7957514

I've always liked the look of Converse hi-tops (and PF Flyers), but I want a better material than canvas. I want suede leather.

Where might I find white or off-white suede sneakers with the classic Chuck styling.

Nothing is wrong with below parallel per se; it's just the fact of doing it while wearing chucks.
If you want to do Oly lifts to full depth with any serious amount of weight on the bar, then you should invest in specialized WL shoes. (i.e., with a raised heel)
