I'm really starting to see the appeal. I wouldn't mind copping some hi-top sneaks that are vaguely dunkish, but I'd feel like I'm hopping on the trend.

>ITT: trends you'll never understand

how do you not understand obvious shit

people like how they look, because they see other people wearing them. this causes them to buy them, continuing the trend.

if you just dont like how they look, and that is your basis of not being able to understand how a trend works, you are just autistic, which is fine, just try to be a little self aware.

>reading comprehension
I didn't say I didn't understand the definition of a "trend". I'm saying I don't understand why some things become popular. Just because I don't bandwagon shit does not reflect poorly upon me. If someone wears crocs and I think that shit looks retarded, doesn't make the crocfag better than me

because hi-tops look like shit, offer less ankle room to move your ankles, and you'll get extra sweaty during the summer compared to lower shoes. If you're using them as boots, its okay, but no need to wear them when any other time of the year

unless, everyone lives in Canada/Russia

The first answer you gave is "looks like shit"
Which is fine, but if someone is asking you to articulate your dislike of something, you should go into specifics. Here are some selected specifics you could have delved into:

"It seems like a comical overabundance of sneaker, entirely superfluous at the end of the day."
"I don't like what it does to the way a pant is supposed to fall"
"I associate them with things that make me uncomfortable, like organized sports, 90's gang movies and poverty."
"I don't like all that weird techy looking bullshit creeping up my ankle."
"I don't know how to dance."

It's important to understand the things you dislike as much as it is the things you like. That means breaking them down into their consituent components.
Is it the toebox of a certain shoe that turns you off right away? is it really the height or is it the patterns and textiles in most hightops? What's a good sole shape? what's an awful one?

"It's Shit" tells us nothing but your opinion and does not facilitate discussion.

why would you want to be warmer during the summer? are you going to wear a coat too and jeans instead of shorts too during the summer? damn shit you're an idiot.

I would think the modern day hightop shoe has its roots in hightop basketball shoes. Basketball shoes that basketball players wore. Basketball players on average aren't very fat. They may be big, but they're not fat.

you said:

>less ankle room
>more sweaty during summer

if you werent fat/have fat ankles you wouldnt have any issues like this.

its fairly clear cut, just do some cardio several times a week (fat loss) to avoid having problems with the ankle being too tight and causing sweating.

Why do you say "Don't Understand" when what you really mean is "Don't Like"?
It's a bit unfair to present yourself like that. "Not Understanding" implies the possibility of acceptance somewhere down the road.
