>Are jordans the most NPC shoes? Every time I see somebody wearing their merch, it's for fashion, not basketballing.

>>13767601
Vans were never legit skate shoes. DC, Etnies, Globe, Osiris, even Reef. These were the true skate brands of antiquity.

>>13767601
it depends. i'd say they're in the same category as normal converse shoes but if you get them in a nice colour you can really have a nice fit.

the og old skools are nice but are "basic bitch" of shoes (much like stan smiths). but Vans has a LOT of nice collabs so you can find something nice if you search far enough.

>>13767601
yeah i usually hate people who wear vans, so yes.

>>13767601
Loool, i thought about making this thread here yesterday and i don't even go on /fa/. 100% agree, if you dont skate

>>13767613
>DC, Etnies, Globe, Osiris, even Reef.
cringe brands

>wahhhh stop wearing cheerleading plimsoles if you don’t skate!!!
why are skatecels such faggots?

>>13767601
I used to skateboard but not anymore, I still wear Vans in the summer because they are pretty comfy.

>>13767613
I miss fallen, I had 3 pairs and they blew all of those brands out of the water.

>>13768688
it's the only thing they do with their lives so they get very defensive and gatekeep it. See video gamers, weebs, etc. They try to act like they care "because I worked hard and bled to skate", but that's a cope: every hobby requires a time investment, it's not like skating is special and different because you fall on the ground like a retard a lot.
>tldr gatekeeping is dumb and so are skaters

I can't be the only one thinking this is the ugliest shoe ever.Yet I see people wearing them every single day

>>13768617
dont fucking diss my shit brah

>>13769035
these are gonna come back hard within the next year mark my words

>>13767601
Old skools and slip ons are extreme NPC core. Somehow I virtually never see SK8 hi's around.

Actual NPC brand coming through

>>13769044
they already have lmao, did you see asap rocky make knock off ones with under armour. I'm sure prices have rocketed for the d3s on ebay already

>>13769127
wait they never went out of production my bad

>>13769127
Yeah but that's not a big come back yet, also they designed those with the original designer of the D3's so I don't consider them a knock off, more of an update.

>>13769024
I don't know, they don't look bad. I think they look better on chicks than dudes, though.

I just have some regular white vans that I got cheap on sale at an outlet. I wear them to the gym and sometimes to the shops. Bit too basic for me if I want to look good

>>13768950
My wife found me a pair online recently and oh man I missed them so much.

>>13769173
They don't look awfully bad, but they have that extremely generic, no-name brand for $7.95 at your local discount store kinda look

I got pinworms when i was small and every one to two years they come back, sometimes the itch gets so annoying i stick my finger up my ass to scratch them out. One time i got like 15 worms on my finger and i threw them in the milk jug because i was pissed off

>>13769035
so fucking ugly god

>>13767601
I wear vans a lot.
I don't skate
anymore, I not 15 anymore lol
Just because I wear them because they look cool doesn't mean I can't pop a varial heelflip after a few tries if someone hands me a board

>>13767613
those brands are all shit, not only are they ugly but the quality is basically the same as actual skate vans or worse, except etnies

>>13767601
Is that a rhetorical question?
Yes, tasteless people tend to buy tasteless things.

Real skaters dont linke vans, but will proably wear em' if dey cheap. Vans soles are the worst in the industry, u can destroy a shoe by skating, sure, but with vans u wont have that problem because the sole will come off before theres holes in it. They should fire all the children that glue that shit together for em.

You’re a retard if you can’t see how these shoes have become essentials for an outfit. Chucks black and white and vans with either high top or low cut are the building blocks of a healthy wardrobe.

I own pic related and I don't skate what are you gonna do about it

>>13771257
Autism

>>13771218

At least vans have the basic shape of a shoe, Chucks look like foot wraps.

>>13767601
These are probably used by more non-skateboarders than skateboarders, so why don’t they make a version of this shoe that’s more comfortable?

>>13769140
Yeah I guess you're right.
A few minutes after I left this thread yesterday I got an email from a local clothing store talking about their new stock and D3s were just put in stock.
Do you know anything about the legality of the Under Armour ones? Doesn't Osiris still have the rights to the design or something?

>>13767613
>vans were never skate shoes
>says the faggot who doesn't skate

yes they were skate shoes before any of those brands even existed you fucking moron

I have the our legacy authentics and love them. These are arriving today

>>13767613
>>13771445
Vans were the prison shoes no cap

>>13771257
would cross the street preemptively when i see you due to the fact that you'll have a rancid smell

>>13767601
They make the best cheap pimsolls out there

I like vans but hufs are the goat skate shoes imo

>>13767613
