>tfw you want dunks but the construction is horrible and they are too expensive
>standing here in geos
FML

what does it feel like dropping that much money then knowing you will never be able to post a good fit with them because you suck at fashion?

>>6756007

rick owens shoes hater here

the swoosh dunks are actually pretty fucking nice, grats, hope you can handle that.

geos look like.. fuck it.

but really, they cost that much? are they lined? comfy? or just for show/fall apart

how can fakes be shitty if they last longer than the real ones
honest question here guys.
oh wait of course 'aesthetics'

>>6756302
it sucks so much ;_;
i know it's kind of autistic to complain about it but it's so annoying

>>6756190
you are so fucking retarded, please stop posting.

>>6756357
here is a pic of what it looks like

>>6756103
>those are dreamboxes
no they're not.
the video has gotten 10 million viewers in a month. geobaskets probably aren't hard on their budget.

>>6756357

iktfb

It's a very annoying feel, specially since you look like a dweeb fixing your look in public real quick.

>>6756397
>you look like a dweeb fixing your look in public real quick.
my feels

another thing is the insole which isn't a single piece. wtf rick???

>>6756344

Diy stuff and vintage glam rocker patent leather and matching patent leather boots

>>6756425
void do you know a solution to this

>>6756354
Also tfw where im going can wear gimp all the time

>>6756429
Put shoe trees? Also the tongues can get a permanent bend if you wear them like that constantly, it will stay that way. Try re lacing them as well.

>>6756429
use tape

goof X grunge

>>6756442
>Put shoe trees?
falls back to the side after a few steps
>the tongues can get a permanent bend if you wear them like that constantly
i have it since day one
>Try re lacing them as well.
been there done that

it's so frustrating to pay that much for shoes and not have them be perfect

>>6756457

Well post photos because the way they are in this pic can be fixed by lacing them differently.
>>6756375

>>6756467

Also if you've got a really big permanent crease in the leather its fairly unrealistic to fix, sorry

>>6756467
lace them how? i lace them the normal american way
>>6756472
i think there is a crease on the side which makes the already really large tongue fall to the side

>>6756478
apparently it's called cross lacing or whatever

>>6756478

I don't know how to re lace them unless you give me a pic because I don't know for sure how it falls

Mine are like this, but I've never had your issue

>>6756484

Hm there is a small leather loop part way up the tongue that you can put the laces through, try pulling it through there and tying the laces very tightly to the top eyelet and see if it stays

>>6756501
doesn't help unfortunately

i will just have to deal with it i guess

These shoes look like shit.. worse than converse in terms of clown foot

do you reddit-tier autists really think you look good in them ?

>>6756484

wow never seen that lock lacing. that might be cool irl. or might totally suck like most lacing variations. gonna try that (not on ricks, don't own any)

>>6756534

not think, know I do

>>6756542
it looks autistic and will probably damage the leather between the top 2 eyelets

Wearing shoes, that look so dumb

A cry for dick, straight up the bum !

But they said its /fa/! they said its cool !

You've ended up looking , like quite the fool !

>>6756543

ROFL you dont look good dude you look like youre trying very hard to be accepted

real /fa/ isnt trying this hard for others approval

>>6756543

eh, I don't really think anyone that doesn't already know what geos are would ever think they look good on someone. in fact, I would be willing to bet a stack that over 90% of the general population would say they look silly, regardless of how good the rest of the fit is. they're such a visually alienating item. imagine wearing them to a family gathering or just doing some mundane shit in them. you really have to be a part of a circle of /fa/ people in a major metropolitan area

>>6756554
Got new shoes, they're really sick

Not surprised since they're from Rick

People hate them, but only online

Why should I even ether you? I'm wasting my time

>>6756560
Lol

You can find a pair in your size if you lurk sufu and ebay, what colorway are you looking for

>>6756554
leave this board you stupid faggot

>>6756571

>basic bitch

>>6756571

> Buying shoes by the same hivemind 30 year old goth , the only gay boy that /fa/ knows about

> Being this trolled and autistic to spend money on the shoes that not even people in high fashion would fuck with

> People dont hate them they just laugh at how stupid you look

>>6756598
That doesn't rhyme at all dude

>>6756572

Lol

I dont fuck with autistic /fa/ trends. you guys were clueless from years ago. i remember when you would post shit like Hitler youth and peacoat over and over.. it was bad then but now you guys went full retard with this goff ninja phase

please tell me you are just trolling. this board is to fashion what /mu/ is to music

>>6756611

> not knowing about Willy Wonka

how long have you actually been here ?

>>6756598
>Using memes from 2010 /b/.

>projecting this hard

>>6756617

> using words like projecting

yeah nah, cunt

>>6756612

dope so you're looking for cargobaskets I saw some gilt not too long ago, should be another sale soon

>>6756622
Only fair.

>>6756623

Also if you're planning on looking foran older version used make sure to get pics of the zipper dude

>>6756623

>>6756612
>/mu/
>not good for music

seriously? you are really dumb

>>6756662
oh god, how could anyone let their bodies get like this?
no self respect?

I mean come on. you'd need to be extremely lazy and disgusting to get that way.

>>6756671

maybe she is actually a kind and generous person

>>6756671

Shes hot i would fuck her , much better than the anorexic little boys you guys masturbate over

>>6756683
that doesn't mean she should neglect her health.

>>6756693

she looks rural, maybe she was raised and trained to act that way. Idk but yea healths important

>>6756670

> posting babbys first hiveminds

> Still nothing decent

> have to be babbied into music because of no individual taste or appreciation

the biggest crime of all

>>6756707

idk but yea fuck off attention whore

> tumblr.com

>>6756718

don't be so sensitive, its not a big deal if I say irk but yea

>>6756662
Isn't that siegs bird?

>>6756741
#ethered

>>6756733

Why do you feel the need to trip and create ego for yourself on a place designed to eliminate that ?

>>6756768
IIRC he adopted a trip because people asked him to

the ego was already created by his fits, /fa/ is a place where this is more or less inevitable if you're going to make OC with a common theme

>designed to eliminate that ?
if 4chan was truly designed to eliminate it, then trips wouldn't be an option at all lol

why are you so butthurt about this?

>>6756779

put your trip back on faggot

>>6756768

because hes not cool enough for tumblr or anything else so needs approval from autistic children

the more you know

>>6756785
i'm not him, and i'm sorry that you think i am because it's not my intention to defame him

do you have anything to say in response to the points in my post?

>>6756779
>IIRC he adopted a trip because people asked him to
i was one of those people

>>6756804

> trying this hard

ROFL

>>6756787
He has fans on sufu as well and used to sell shit on his tumblr and afaik isn't selling shit currently because he's moving to go to fashion school

>>6756442
+1
I've gotten the tongues to slowly bend in the directions I want (outwards) by using a clothespin when I'm not wearing them.
There's a little hinge or flap thing that connects the tongue to the upper. hold it down on the opposite side you want the tongue to sway to.

>>6756768
People have been asking me to trip for a while and I've been resistant, but after a certain point, if you 're a consistent contributor, it kind of makes sense that you'd like a bit of continuity from one /fa/ visit to the next.

>>6757113
Use magnets

>>6756768

the fact that tripcodes exist on this website prove that it is not designed to eliminate ego entirely

>>6757113
i tried that and it didn't do much
i'm gonna do it again and not wear them for a month. maybe that will do the trick

>>6757142
do you know where i can buy one of those? or how to make one myself?

did dunks cost more than geos now?

>>6757154

Not sure if that bag is still available. Bbs bags are actually very easy to make, they just use high quality treated materials

Cant draw a pattern foryou, but send me an email and I can explain how to construct it later

>>6757158

Depends on what versions

>>6757190
you should make a sewing thread where you tell people how to do shit

>>6756378
im not saying they are poor but they did buy dreamboxes perhaps by mistake

twas confirmed by sufu rick experts on tumblr

>>6757200
09

>>6757203
it would take forever to explain
for example, even if you left out the tags and didn't touch on fabric cutting and combined pressing and sewing as one step, a raw hemmed rick tshirt would take six separate steps and require either a dedicated coverstitch and flatlock or a multi-serger and rethreading once (or you could use one or the other at the cost of authenticity)

>>6756110
on rick geos/dunks?

the tongue is so structured id be surprised if that happened a lot

the tongue on my dunks never fallin

>>6757214

Yeah bnib 09 dunks are more expensive that bnib geos, unless the dunks or geos are in a color with less demand

>>6756001
>>6756001
>>6756001

Does anyone here actually think that this wasn't written by a Nike employee? Outside of tumblr Nike isn't fucking fashion.

Hope everyone here realizes this.

>>6757227
actually, rick tshirts use three different dedicated machines, now that i think about it.
you could still do it with one machine/threading, but two would be better.

>>6757227

Tbh authenticity isn't the issue I think, you really can make great t shirts without a flatlock or coverstitch

The issues are more related to creating a balanced pattern, truing it, and aquiring really viable fabrics

>>6757256
dont u do it w/ a str8stitch? u cray btw
yea tbh i havent found jersey like rick's babyrib

>>6757262
why are they so expensive?

>>6757278
brand new never to be produced again rare exclusive rick grail keywords

>>6756670
>actually listening to essentials
lmao once a fuccboi always a fuccboi

>>6757190
pls draw pattern

>>6757245
Such awesome bait.

>>6757264

yeah, you just design the pattern for the fabrication technique you're using. For example since a single needle binds the seams so tightly you have to allow for the lack of stretch by increasing the total body cirumference slightly

>>6757305

I will later but im travelling at the moment, don't have a notebook handy

>>6757361
i will get back 2 u B-)
