I don't know who needs to hear this, but you need a new pair of shoes.






At least if you remotely give a fuk about how you're viewed by the opposite sex or treated when you're in a restaurant. Everyone needs a pair of chit-kickers to take out the garbage in or run to the local CVS/7eleven in a rain storm, but you should not be going out in the fukers.

Went to bar with friends the other week, saw this girl checking out this guy at another table, saw her look down at his shoes and legit make this face.




It's not about stupid expensive brand whorey chit either. Just some respectable/clean runners or minimal style. And for fuks sake, buy some pants that fit that don't have your ankle swimming.

I feel like shoes are something a man shouldn't skimp on when it comes to his wardrobe. They don't have to be crazy either.

Just LOL at street thugs squandering every penny they make on footwear that they're to scared to get dirty.

And then complain that the system is keeping them down.

Just LOLOLOLOL.

I had an old pair of gym shoes for entirely too long I must admit, I'm the worst at keeping shoes clean. Picked up a new pair of ultra boost 20s for the gym and cardio this past weekend.

If I'm going out to the bars, or dressing up I always have on boots.

Agree but would add to at least clean your shoes. If you have leather shoes, clean and oil them. If you have white soles, use a magic eraser. There’s tons of videos out there on cleaning shoes and making them look like new again.

not gonna lie i'm largely detached from dressing to impress or to look a certain part. you do you m8. but you'll never catch me looking at a pair of shoes wondering if a woman is going to want to suck my dick if i bought them

I agree with the sentiment, personally.

Nike is my biggest single holding, though, as its a solid company. It's kicked ass through the pandemic because of mouthbreathers like the OP and his friends buying their overpriced shoes.

Your photos are a prime example of ankle swimming srs. But don't feel bad because most men don't know if they don't pay attention.

Your pants are supposed to taper starting from the upper leg to the ankle. If they do not, your ankles will swim and you will appear poorly dressed srs

I get not wearing shoes that look like you picked them out of the trash, that goes for any clothing you wear, but at the same time it blows my mind how much money (women and men) blow on shoes. It seems like the uglier they are the more they cost. To each their own but I cringed the few times I had to buy dress shoes that were over $100.

Girls won't let you buy them drinks if they see you have dirty shoes!

He's not suggesting some Hypebeast **** in his post. He's just saying get some CLEAN shoes (in this case sneakers) to at least show up and be presentable where you are. I don't see any problem with that. He's not saying drop a ton.

Not everyone lives in a flyover state or a rural area and wants to rock some generic New Balances or chit they pick up at Walmart.

I have some dress shoes that I spent $400 - 500 on. Just take care of them and they will do great.

An example. I bought these in 2016, rock them every Fall/Winter and they look great. I don't really like flashy stuff.

When the soles wear out I will just get them resoled.
