ewwwww

come on nigga what are we in fucking 2010? don't cop janoskis

>>7343617
skate shoes are ugger

>>7343642
but they are cheap and look dece. What would you recommend

>>7343617
You have a horrible taste in shoes. Sorry to tell you that.

1 or 3
2 and 5 are pure shit

>>7343693
not OP here, but what is wrong with these shoes? i wear janoskis...

>>7343708
same. nothing, i'm not sure what anon is talking about. janoskis are still cool

do you skate? if not, don't wear them

if you don't care just cop 1. good shoe i guess if you're a pleb

just get high top blazers instead. the stigma with janoskis is retarted 17 year old skater potheads

>>7343795
Don't get blazers OP, they look shit.
>>7343775
Post a shoe that isn't plebian so i can see your taste

Just get vans instead

>>7343828
Vans are for 12 year old girls to match their snapbacks, OP.
Janoskis are still better than vans.

>>7343845
they are both the same lol
both are gash

>>7343828
This is OP, post good vans?

>>7343859
sk8-hi

>>7343853
what do you wear anon

>>7343867
today i wore free run 2s
:)

>>7343845
what about plain, black, male looking shoes is representative of 12 year old girls? who honestly gives a fuck what demographic is associated with wearing their shoes?

>>7343879
then why not get janoskis?
if the thing about janoskis is that only skaters should wear them, then who cares

how the hell are we supposed to know, it really depends what suits you better. post a picture of one of your fits or what youre wearing and i'll be able to tell. and for everyone who are dissing these shoes and saying retarded shit without advice NEWSFLASH! not everyone wants to spend 800 dollar for shitty plain color shoes or can rock boots.

>>7343617
i'd say 4 or 5, depending on what your style is like

4 is probably more versatile, 5 if you want to stick out some (in a good way)

>>7343887
I don't care, if you're a 25 year old guy who likes them then go for it. Some people will judge you sure, personally idgaf. I just prefer Vans.

>>7343617

cop a gun and a bullet and put it in your head or at least your feet because you don't deserve to even wear shoes

To everyone against janoskis, post what you would wear instead

>>7343929

almost anything

>>7343948
topkek

>>7343617
teenager/dirty skater associations aside, 1 would be the most versatile. 2 is cool looking though. Just cop what you like most and care less for anon validation.

>>7343943
okay most of them are high tops. what if you can't pull of high tops? or don't want high tops? like it's summer here, i want something as low as janoskis.
the other half are new balance. there's something about new balance shoes that just looks bad. like they are too chunky or something. plus there are a shit ton of kids at my school who rock white new balance shoes from athlete's foot with jeans.

Thankyou for the suggestions though, i am not supporting janoskis, i just don't see a good alternative. Still, open for ideas

>>7343969

if you're actually serious, as opposed to my post, even vans classics look better than janoskis imo if you're looking for a low profile shoe

>>7343617
OP, i got called out by a bunch of skaters at my school for wearing janoskis.
never again.

>Don't want to wear NBs
>People say Janoskis are played out
>Dunks/Air 1s fugly

Wut do?

inb4 rafidas

>>7343983
Why would you pay attention? Fucking children.

>>7343975
true. fuck idk, i just wanted something different. they are the shoes i'm wearing right now, haha

>>7343990
they took my laces.
i had to tie my shoes up with sour straps from the canteen.

>>7343984
air force ones are great
so are a lot of NBs
there are plenty of great nikes that aren't janos
adirafs are dope too but you probably cant afford them

>>7343983
huh?

were they like, "you don't skate maaannn so you can't wear those sneakers!"

explain

>>7343992

yeah man, something about janoskis just rubs me the wrong way, they look cheap and don't have the retro appeal that other "skater" nike shoes had before it and just have an unappealing silhouette

Nike SB/6.0s were so much better if you're going that route

>>7344022
holy shit is that real

skaters seem like the most annoying people in the world
always whining about what shoes people are allowed to wear
getting upset if someone has a penny board
getting upset if someone cant skate as well as them
getting upset if a celebrity likes skateboarding casually but isn't a pro

do skaters actually like skating?

>>7344027
skaters are cunts

>>7344022
w-
what the fuck
skaters around here are typically cool guys, sounds like the ones in your area have some serious social disabilities.

>>7344022
you have to be making this up.

if some skate punk was tryin to talk to me i'd just keep walking lol
ain't nobody got time for that

>>7344047
nahh they were all older and in a group. fuckin traumatised

>>7344106
lol

dude you just keep going

carry a knife and call the coppers so the wannabe toughs scram

>>7344040
English skaters are the worst, complete douchebags. Whenever I'm just cruising around on my board every skater I pass tries to make me do tricks and shit

>>7344153
>carry a knife
>call the coppers
glhf

>>7344171
better than having your laces stolen while you stand there

Lakai or die, bitches

>>7343813
ay ur mom looks like shit u fukken cunt

post a fit cakeshit

>>7344203
no, it fucking isn't. pick one or the other. i'd rather not stab a stupid kid so i'd say the best option is to just try to leave and if they give you lots of shit call the cops. there's nothing honourable about granting a fight with a group of idiots over shoes, granted.

>>7344227
good quality, pretty bad style. would recommend for actual skaters.

>>7344227
got called out for wearing lakai.

"They aren't even vans faggot."

The lakai sign is like a fourth adidas stripe, people just assume they are really bad fake vans

>>7343929
vans
roshes

so after all of that, what is the verdict on janoskis. lets have a fucking civilised vote.
don't call them try-hard unless you can suggest a good alternative.

>>7344604
they are fine, just buy extra laces.

>>7344604
personal taste, if you like em go for it. I think they look good but avoid them since in nyc at least everyone (including myself lol) has a pair. in response to op's pic i would say the tiffany colorway is the phre$hest

>>7344022

>>7344629
I agree with anon,

>>7344604
they dont look bad bruh.
just cop #1. #2's are fine too just depends how much you like that tiffany sole or whatever they call that color.
every time you take a step you can see the blue and you may or may not like that.

Does anyone know where i could get shoes like these vans, with the top part the same style, but the bottom part like classic vans (aka not like free run 2s)?

>>7344660
they're ugly tho.
dnc.

>>7344666
yeah but they are only ugly because they elongate, which wouldn't happen if they had a different sole

>>7343929

>>7344684
also if you MUST get janoski get no. 4 gum soles are cool

>>7344684
if u must get janoskis get the no.4

>>7344696
>gum soles are cool
they can be.
but not a janoskis

>>7344684
THEY are ugly. kudos if you can pull it off tho

>>7344709
as if, gum soles are sick

>>7344711
how do you pull of high top black shoes
you're ugly motherfucker

>>7346804
cause you'd look like that kid in the seventh grade, whose mum made him wear velcro shoes because he didn't know how to tie up his shoe laces.

>>7346855
you go tell yourself that while wearing your janoskis then kiddo

My mom bought me #4 because she thought I would like them, to be nice I wore them a few times.

End up being my favorite shoe, bought a grey pair with gum sole too. Of everything I wear, those #4 get compliments more than anything, so I guess the general public likes janoskis, and honestly if you start dressing yourself to /fa/ standards you'll just seem autist irl.

Oh and you won't get shit for wearing them, /fa/ is making shit up. If you are honestly scared of getting called names, scrape the toe of one of the shoes enough to make it look like you were doing kick flips or some shit.

>>7346855
oh... were you that kid ;_;

>>7346984
nahh man i couldn't even work velcro. i had zips. slip ons were too tight.

>>7343999
It's all about those leather laces dawg.
You had it coming for wearing skate shoes, and not skating.

>>7347070
yeah see. not sure if sarcasm or this is an actual rule.

>>7347080
it isn't

>>7347080
>>7347089
it is
