It was a tumblr meme shoe in 2010.

>>9392244
source? proof?

>>9392242
With Stan Smiths achieving "meme" status - doubtful it would be another shoe from adidas

>>9392242

the cancer killing /fa/ everybody
the only 2 meme shoes to date are AF1's and geobaskets, I understand if you're 2new to not remember the memes they were forced behind though, we were all new at one point :)

>>9392271
>being this buttblasted
>announcing out loud shit to 'everybody'

I see a lot of girls wearing them all over London, Adidas also has an ad campaign for Superstars specifically going on

>>9392271
was here during both those meme movements. i guess they're the only ones where the pushing to buy them was a meme. i.e.
>get af1s instead

but CPs, raf velcros, mmm paint splatters, gats, stan smiths, ccp drips, cdg play x converse, vans sk8 his, and a plethora of other shoes have all been viraled on this website to the point at which i would call them a meme or at least a part of the /fa/ board culture

>>9392271
CPs are a legitimate meme shoe. They are virtually only popular here unlike geobaskets. CPs are the tao Lin of this board

>>9392298
>>9392304
people do wear these shoes outside of /fa/, you know that right
look at all of the people on le21eme, if you said to them "nice meme shoes" IRL for wearing anything posted on here they'd think you're a psycho autist

http://le21eme.com/category/designers/raf-simons/

do these people look like they browse /fa/ or are they just interested in fashion?

>>9392304
>CP's are only popular on /fa/

Yeah no.

>>9392313
The fuck does 'memeshoe' have anything to do with people only wearing them on /fa/, you realize there are no shoes that are only available for users of this board.
AF1s have been streetwear staple since 90s and Geos are common as fuck high end sneaker.

Geobaskets and CP's are the only legit meme shoes

>>9392313
no shit. of course people outside /fa/ and the internet are gonna buy designer clothing. you can say the same thing about af1s and geobaskets. its just that they are a meme within this board. memes aren't applicable everywhere in the world. but on /fa/, these shoes are pretty damn memey

>>9392323

>>9392298
can we please talk about the adidas superstar instead of all these OLD meme-shoes? we need to embrace the coming meme

>>9392327
Respect the classics

>>9392327
i don't like them, not a fan of adidas as a whole either, but at least 14 year olds will stop buying af1s, so i can wear them again

>get af1s instead

>>9392327
Literally everyone used to rock either white/black ones or black/white ones back in middle school, kinda cool to see them coming back, although I haven't seen anyone wearing them for ages.

Might cop some of the white/black 80's ones.

dont forget iron rangers are meme boots

>>9392375
I was rocking Stan Smith during the Superstar hype back then.

>dad won't let me get Superstar

>>9392317
Seriously this, so few people have a real idea of what meme means.

Direct definition:
"an element of a culture or system of behavior that may be considered to be passed from one individual to another by nongenetic means, especially imitation"

It's not 4chan exclusive. It refers to cultural phenomenon. In fashion, that definitely makes geobaskets, raf velcros, GATS, Stan Smiths, Af1s, Vans, etc all memes.

That all said, I don't think superstars are going to make it to the same extent as Stans.

>>9392242
These are some special edition with the golden emblem, right.

I love Superstars, I hope they'll never become acmeme.

>>9392254
They're reblogged by basic bitches, most have high note numbers.
Honestly speaking just get a decent grasp on taste and being able to make choices by yourself and you won't have to worry about 'memeshoes'

>>9392242
have already become the basic bitch blogger shoe

can't hate em though, in a way they've always been a hip hop icon to me

run dmc where are you

>>9392271
AF1s were a meme for a couple of months at best. Geobaskets I agree with. The other meme shoes are Common Projects Achilles and Clarks Desert Boots (rip 2009 /fa/).

been meme'd on the tumblrs for like a year

>>9392625
>not rocking superstars w/out the laces

>>9392313
What's this site about?

>>9392242
This was a meme in the '80s

Run DMC made a song about it

i can't find stan smiths where i'm at. should i cop superstars?

>>9393074
what do you think it is? it's a street style blog centered around fashion week

>>9394255
nope, order dem stans online

superstars were last in maybe 15 years ago, i still see these more or less everyday worn by uneffay ppl, it's more like an "i don't really care" shoe at least here

>>9392304
L O L
O
L

even fucking kanye wore CP's and that was back in '08 or sth

are stan smiths meme shoes too?

>>9396509
yeah dude don't wear them
total meme shoes

Are these meme shoes too? They're like the only shoe I can wear on a daily with almost any outfit but I don't wanna look like a tool wearing these joints lol

Flyknits.

>>9396648
They're fine. They aren't as common as normal vans and they look better imo

>>9396509
>>9396513
no they're not dont listen to this fucking idiot. stans are great shoes and go with many outfits, thats why everyone recommends them. they are NOT meme shoes

GDLK

I was being ironic fucclord. I think he's a retard.

GOAT

>>9396704
how does one pick up irony when typing?

>>9396719
tone

>>9396719
go to [s4s] if you need practice

What does /fa/ think about Pharrell's upcoming collab?

>>9392242
These are fucking great
Also smart move from adidas since this will probably also raise the points of regular all stars in the eyes of people.
The toecap shape looks amazing with shoes like this imo, though I still don't like the weird detailing.

>>9397857
These just remind me of uggs.

Belongs to:
14 year old Scandi soccer player tier
Kurdish faggot with white leather belt and Gucci t-shirt tier

>>9397857
these are pretty cool

>>9397857
these look so cosy. like something an avant-garde shepherd on the mongolian steppes would wear

>>9397849
how the fuck do they even get shoes this color
like, do orange and red horses exist now?

>>9398306
they actually dye the horse a few shades lighter than the desired colour, the hide is then darkened through the tanning process

>>9398313
they actually dye the horse? what the fuck lol
I learned something today thank you Anon

>>9392271
>af1
>meme shoe
that was a terrible forced meme, the only meme shoes are geobaskets, CPs and maybe velcros

>>9396648
Those are 2014 so yeah it's a meme for 2015

>>9398306
>>9398313
>>9398314

>>9392298
wouldnt count drip soles bc im betting nobody on /fa/ owns them, although they did used to get some buzz

>>9392388
>dad won't let me
>dad won't let
>dad won't
>dad

the feck is this shit?!?

>>9392242
I want to like white sneakers but they get dirty easily and never look as nice irl.

>clark's malis
>rafdidas
>alden indy
>Allen edmonds dalton
>rick anything
>those dr.martens colab derbies with the white wedge sole.

Can go on and on.

>>9392242
I would cop superstars but "hip" teachers and local 16 yr old wannabe gangsters wear them here

>>9401219
white leather sneakers are literally the easiest thing to clean

>>9401281
>not just wearing the shoe because you like it.
lol pleb

>>9392254
i've had mine for 4 years now

>>9397849
pharrell really fucked up IMO
>releasing easy colorways
>but for 150
>adding polkadots to other shit colorways
>making a different shoe for like a billion colors

>>9392304
>the tao lin of this board
