Kicks
 
Ok, folks. Time to get real. Post a pic of your current casual kicks. If you rock multiple, use discretion.

My current fave pair: green puma Suedes. I even use the puffy laces.

I like those. I have the same pair, but they're blue.

I wear these alot, whenever we're going to do anything remotely active.

I actually only wear all white athletic shoes. So these are what I have right now:

I normally wear these though. I hate shoes(not exact, but close enough):

I wear my retired running shoes. Does that make me an old man? Brooks, Trance 7's.

This made me laugh. Not because of the style, but I always pictured you in something like these. Birdman.

As for me:

I was rounding a few weeks ago with a doc who is a real redneck (a self-described coonass) from Louisiana. He's kind of a James Carville type. We saw a guy wearing Pumas exactly like those but in pink.

His comment was pretty memorable. He says, "Where I come from, we call those 'If you can catch me, you can [screw] me' shoes."

Who says I don't call them the same thing?

I have several pairs of the pic above. White and black, White and navy and white on white. All in various stages of being worn out.

I also have a pair of Adidas blue suede running shoes with orange stripes. But I can't find a pic on the web.

SoCalCoug 11-03-2008 07:57 PM

I have these Steve Madden sneakers that they don't even sell anymore, that I got for $12 at one of the discount shoe stores on clearance. I also have these brown ones that I don't even know what brand they are (at the same store).

Shoes are way down the list of things I care about.

I do have some Allen Edmunds dress shoes that I wear for work. But I don't like them because they're not comfortable.

The_Tick 11-03-2008 08:04 PM

90% of my shoe wearing day is this...

I have some old Superstars....very worn out at this stage, looks similar to yours.

I also have a pair of navy blue suede Gazelles. While I love them because they are very Beastie Boy, they are super uncomfortable to wear all day because the sole is flat as a pancake.

TripletDaddy 11-03-2008 08:07 PM

tick, are your boots work-related, or do you just find those more comfortable?

il Padrino Ute 11-03-2008 08:11 PM

I wear these: the New Balance Grand Slam
http://www.hanon-shop.com/images/P/NBFN9GN-01.jpg

But I just found out that I can now buy these, so I will soon get me a pair:

http://www.zappos.com/images/741/741...7-627515-p.jpg

Yes, the classic Adidas Superstar is again available.

I'm all about that.

The_Tick 11-03-2008 08:12 PM

I work in the oil field. Required. But I sport the NB on the way to work.

To be completely honest though...

I have a 2nd pair at the house of the Wolverines...the company pays for a new pair every year. They are the best shoes to work in. If I paint, repair/replace anything, yard work the whole bit...the best.

My girls make fun of me when I wear them into home depot. The one thing I have learned. Wear Steel Toe Wolverines into Lowe's or HD and you get helped first. :)

landpoke 11-03-2008 08:14 PM

Mine are more pure black and reddish orange. Sure to please Ohio.

Black Diamond Bay 11-03-2008 08:23 PM

My rainbow flip-flops, or a pair of black loafers that I bought at nine west 3 or 4 years ago...to the gym a pair of some run of the mill tennis shoes I purchased back in High School, and around the house, my BYU slippers.

I have a pair of loafers like that as well. But I mainly use them when I am on the yacht. :)

mpfunk 11-03-2008 09:17 PM

For me it is the white Adidas Samba. I don't know of any casual shoe that is more comfortable than the Samba.

Except for the Samba Millenium! I have the black ones. Also the normal Sambas.

I am happy to hear that we have a really healthy dose of Adidas lovers on this site, and not so many Nike-philes.

I will have to check those out. I am always afraid to go against the classic Samba's because they have served me well. I also have a black pair that is torn to shreds and Mrs. Funk wears a black pair of Sambas all the time too.

I have never been much of a Nike fan. I usually go with Adidas or Pumas. I also am a big fan of the Saucony Jazz Orignals and need to get a new pair.

I pronate. A lot. So I have to wear corrective shoes, but at least they look kinda nice.
