the sole looks better and it doesn't have contrast stitching

higher quality

the downside is the logo

Yeah I agree with this. Can anyone suggest ways of covering or removing the logo? or I will just google search....

>> No.6462983

if you own them then you'd know its actually rather easy to scratch off the logo.. mine have started to peel after about 2 months of regular wear.

granted i actually like the logo

Anyways if you must remove it; leave it soaking in paint thinner overnight and it peels right off.

>> No.6462985

Is there anyplace i can get them based in the U.S? I don't really wanna pay a lot of shipping. Also, i'm a size 10 and i have no idea how UK sizing lines up with that, and if these are TTS anyway.

Just don't let it soak where the sole comes in contact with canvas, so try to just get the logo dipped in the Paint Thinner because it has a strong smell.

I constantly consider copping a pair of the cdg's but I'd feel like such a buttlicker for spending that much money on a pair of chucks.

Considering it's easy enough to take off the gay logo, I might just pull the trigger soon. It's that or another pair of Visions.

What's the sizing for CDG Converse like? Size down one? I have a pair of Sambas in 11.5 that are tight as fuck. Those are the only sneakers that I have that other people on here might have. I'd say my average is around 12.

I wear basic bitch americana heritage type work wear(jeans, henley. flannel, chamois, boots, chore coat, duck canvas, earthy tones etc.) and was thinking a pair of black low chucks might fit in my wardrobe but I never wear black and my all white sambas are more versatile... I never thought I would be a position where chucks might not be a good choice.

gothninja exists as a subculture only because it impresses losers that grew up watching video games and jerking off to children's anime. it looks cool and edgy to them. when gothninjas post a photo on the internet, they are in control over the lighting, composition, and content of this photo. they can emulate an aesthetic seen so many times growing up in comic books/video games/movies etc. for this reason, gothninja pictures look cool and edgy to the weak, pale geeks of the world when they come to sufu, or 4chan, or stylezeitgeist, or pinterest, or thefedoralounge. when you take them outside this frame of reference, and capture someone trying to posture as "gothninja" while walking down santa monica boulevard with a slice of pizza in their hand, it becomes very obvious how pathetic their charade is. they lose control of their aesthetic in the real world and it's sad to behold. so instead they avoid being seen eating pizza, and try to slink around in the shadows smoking cigarettes, sending their mom to buy groceries so as not to be seen with luncheon meats in their hand. they avoid going to the beach because they know it's impossible to perpetuate their carefully crafted image there. it's like a symphony of spaghetti, and it makes me cringe.

imo they look pretty good irl. The outside logo comes right off and you can't even tell it was there. And they're just black suede highs, not sure what can be so ugly as shit about them.

Plus they're decently made. The pair I have lasted me a long fucking time, and I took pretty poor care of them.

What would you suggest instead, in terms of black hi's?

I'm sorry man. Those are the furthest from fashionable you can get. They look like generic sneakers a 14 year old would wear.

I can't really recommend you much without you providing a budget.

There are plenty of sneakers out there though. If you're on a budget you can always start with some type of converse like the varvatos weapons or the cdg collab hightops.

There's always the nike/hypebeast shoe selection route around the $100-$200 range.

Once you hit $200+ you can start looking at some discounted designer shit on a budget.

>>6464219
Your shoes and your jacket are what gives off the most character in your outfit. Everything else is just mostly to form a certain silhouette. The ones you posted previously are basically generic and invisible as they come.

Some people like invisible--but usually it's _good_ invisible, like common projects that are so invisible that they stand out. If that makes sense.

Invest in good shoes. Shoes and Jackets are where 75% of your clothing budget should go towards.
