Hey /fa/gs, I'm thinking of buying another pair of shoes.

The style I wear is like pic related. In fact, pic related will be the shoes I get unless I find something better of a similar style. My usual brands don't have anything I like currently so I'm requesting your help in suggesting a pair of shoes or a brand that looks like these. My feet are fairly large (US Size 12) so I wear slimmer looking shoes since I prefer not to look like I'm wearing clown shoes.

Price cap is $100 currently unless I find a pair that I absolutely love that happens to be more expensive.

>> No.8686750

seeing how both of those choices are beyond hopeless, it doesn't really matter what you pick tbh

>> No.8686757

>>8686750
what would you suggest then for black lowtops under $120?

>> No.8686789

I would get Supras if they didn't look ridiculous in size 12.

>> No.8686798

>>8686757
well that's the thing: i wouldn't suggest black lowtops that cost less than 120.

but if you insist on those criteria, idk. stan smith, af1 low, some sort of onitsuka tiger or asics, puma suede

though guessing from your two proposed choices i don't think any of those would go well with your wardrobe. just get some black/white vans eras or something idk.

>> No.8686803

>>8686789
do they have to be flat soled? because zx flux in black are a solid choice.
So are suede janoskis
>inb4 edgy teenager, they genuinely are nice shoes if you dont mind the swoosh
new balance 420 are decent choices too, as are adidas samba
but if all else fails cop af1

Thanks guys. I already have black and white af1s which I'm happy with, however they are limited to several wardrobe choices that I have. I was looking for something more casual and not suede.

I love the Adidas Y-3 Sala but they are ~$300.

another possible option

>> No.8686955

Ok, I've made my decision. I'll be getting the Volcom Grimm in Iron Gray color.

They are full grain leather as opposed to the synthetic leather in the Steve Maddens, and I preferred the gray color to black. They would age better.

I tend to do a lot of walking, so suede shoes would get destroyed in a matter of weeks.

I've never seen a 15 year old wear anything similar to these.

>> No.8687174

>>8687154

bro, those look anything but plain.

also they are for 15 year olds because volcom
also for 15yrolds b/c red+grey contrast

you're telling me you would wear volcom if you're older than 18?
No.

>> No.8687179

Just get vans if you can't go above $120.

Then save up for shoes that really matter.


That's what I did.

If the Volcom logo was huge, I wouldn't get them, but the same could be said for any logo. I reluctantly wear Nikes because of the prominent logo.

The logo is tiny and I can remove it if I wanted to because the overall fit and color is pretty good for the cheap price that they are. The color is otherwise pretty good.

Wait, so you think Volcom is for 15 year olds but Vans aren't? Ok, now I'm sure you're trolling. I have a $400 pair of hiking boots when I'm out in the field, but I otherwise destroy anything that isn't made out of leather.

>> No.8687292

>>8687262

Volcom makes things for middleschoolers.


Vans does as well but it's acceptable for a 20 sumthing to wear vans.

used to wear these and i got compliments all the time.

I'd argue the opposite. Vans has a closer association with middle schoolers than Volcom does. I've never met anyone in their 20s wearing Vans other than complete manchildren. I have, however, seen Volcom tank tops worn by swagfags in their 20s.

Due to the small logo on the shoes and the non-juvenile styling, no one would think they are for kids. Vans on the other hand, are almost always styled for 16 year old skaters.

>>8687323

dude you see kids in college wearing classic vans all the time, but never anyone wearing volcom


christ why are we arguing over volcom and vans? tbh they are both the same fucking brand lol
