[QUOTE=MakoSkyDub;37868580]They really do

I owned some converse when I was younger, they were the thing to get I guess

I grew to hate them through nothing but my own experience of owning them

[QUOTE=Lord of Ears;37865884]converse are terrible, go with vans[/QUOTE]

sperglord.

[ChestyMcGee]

basically if you're gonna get converse or vans at all make an effort to get ones that look more mature than the standard ones

ie dont buy these ones

Shirt seems really immature, but I guess that is personal preference and nothing wrong with it fashion wise. The arm band is ugly though and combined with the immature t-shirt and the scruffy hair you come off as some freshman highschooler when youre obviously a lot older.

This is a 2 year old pic, sadly the mice lost their colour and it eventually just wore out.

I refuse to shave the sides of my head and get a weird ass combover/bouffant thing, along with tight chino's and stripy shirts. However it seems to be the thing now, it looked shit in the 80's the first time round and it looks shit now. Not judgin', just saying.

Then again I have no fashion sense, dark jeans, offensive t-shirts and an arm band that says fuck you. Thought I'd add some lower class into this thread.

Firstly I didn't recommend anything

Secondly I didn't comment on people who wear converse in general, it's the shoes themselves that are bad

But yeah if you wanna wear girl's graphic converse break a leg, maybe you can get some that glow in the dark or something

[Cheesemonkey]

i've got vans and i've had them for ages and i like to think that they're an adult color

[editline]1st October 2012[/editline]

they're grey canvas and i replaced the laces on them with white ones

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ZMEt9l.jpg[/IMG]

theyre pretty beaten up but they've seen lots of action

[editline]1st October 2012[/editline]

bonus courderoy action

[RawrBullet]

How do you clean that white rubber bit? I've tried a few different things for mine, but I think I just wear them too much and the dirt must be proper rubbed into it by now.

[Cheesemonkey]

it looks clean because the camera blew it out, they're pretty dirty. i gave them to my mom to wash a couple weeks ago and they came back cleaner so the washing machine probably cleaned it

go at it with a toothbrush and some baking soda or 409 or whatever

[chinatown]

So today I spent the whole day downtown looking for new clothes for my new wardrobe. I cant upload pictures although I would really like to hear your opinion, so maybe later.

One thing I can show though, are these

Converse make your feet flat.

Mild soap, water and a brush does the trick for me.

I got some of these in this color

Did I fuck up? There seem to be a lot of conflicting opinions in this thread.

Also, the Converse looked hideous in person to me.

[Mon]

honestly all i see is grey, brown and grey-brown in this thread

some variety wouldn't hurt

[/QUOTE]

persoanlly i feel like the whole point of converse and vans is that they're simple, classic, basic shoes to just not give a fuck about. if you want something more ~mature~ then why are you wearing sneakers

[postmanX3]

so is there any good site with a good list of hairstyles and reference pictures? i need to a trim or something and i hate going in to a stylist and just being like "uh i dunno trim it a little" because that's really vague.

[ChestyMcGee]

[QUOTE=vagrant;37874081]if you want something more ~mature~ then why are you wearing sneakers[/QUOTE]

because they're light weight and comfortable and should be reasonably cheap?? doesn't mean you should settle for the most boring model they make, especially when they don't even look that great and they're mostly worn by children
