I think it might, but I'm not a fan. I just saw shit on reddit and hypebeast. Even on kanye/shia, the look is a bit iffy. When someone tries a fit like this:

it's pretty bad.

Not interested in them myself, but still think they're really cool, so I looked.

Unfortunately, they seem pretty hard to find. All I was able to get (after a quick search, so by no means exhaustive) was this article in November 2011:

http://sneakernews.com/2011/11/07/nike-sfb-holiday-2011-colorways/
http://news.nike.com/news/nike-sfb

Not sure if they're even in stock anymore. The Nike site doesn't seem to have them. Even Ebay's not giving me anything.

literally never seen a good fit with these aside from shia fits, which i wouldn't consider "good" but more like default.

Yeah, I know. I have yet to see a truly good fit with these boots. The Shia / Kanye fits are just all right.

However, I do like the all-white (>>10480995, >>10484363) in theory - but I can't find any fits with them (good or bad).

Most of the colorways have way too much going on IMO (and all-black just look like police boots), but the all-white has this strange futuristic minimalism.

Don't fall for the shia meme

They're really not versatile shoes and they're obnoxious as fuck when they're brand new and clean. My girlfriend surprised me with the boots when they went on sale and now I feel bad because I never wear them

My normal pants weren't tight enough so I tried the h&m skinnies. They're pretty much jeggings. They're the only pants that work with these

Probably gonna return the hm pants and then silently never wear the boots and feel like an asshole
