yeah... i agree. these are too avante-garde for me. i wouldnt want to be seen in public with them, 99% of the people would just give me weird looks.

whatever brave soul who decides to wear them either mustn't care of what people think of them, have equally interestingly dressed friends, or both.
I'd be terrified if I had to make an outfit that included them because I'd have no idea where to start

if they are indistinguishable then why would you get shit for them?

People on /fa/ like to think that if you wear something slightly weird people will ridicule you everywhere you go, which is just not the case.

agreed. i have worn rafdidas many times and never received anything but compliments.

OP you should buy them. They're comfy as shit and damn cool if worn properly.

There was a this kid in my sociology class who had the Rafdidas. He wore them every other day (he also had a pair of the Varsity Blue Jordan 1s and for some reason black Sk8 His that he just rotated between daily)

He didnt have many friends and the one time I asked him about the shoes he just kinda stumbled about and awkwardly told me he paid 300 dollars for them or something ridiculous as an opening statement.

He was a herb

Not my favorite Raff piece, but I do like the direction he's going in compared to his typically bulkier, oversized products like the Chuck Taylor inspired Geobaskets.
I think they're great, and you should cop.

I don't want so start a new thread so I'll ask you here: I need new sneakers and never tried Nike Roshe Run but it seems that there are two versions, which one should I buy?

I'd recommend Adidas Pure Boosts instead.
Tried them on and they're even more comfortable than Roshes which are outplayed imo.

The Roshes you posted should be pretty much the same, just different pictures, different sizes.

also consider the fact that pure boosts are basically adidas' (2 year late) bid to try and jump on the roshe run train and that they're UGLY AS FUCK

imo get the reflective fingertrap frees or hyperfuse roshes if you're afraid of being "outplayed"
