Which type of sneaker do you most prefer? Do you find yourself buying the newest patterns and designs, or do you stick to old or "retro" classics?

I'm a big fan of classic retro shoes myself. I have black and white Adidas shell toes, as well as white and black …

The only sneakers I have are low top converse, knee high converse sneaker boots and thigh high converse sneaker boots.

Wait, converse counts right??



Cons are, and always will be, the supreme sneaker.



I dunno, mine just kind of fell apart after a couple of months. The Vans I had before them seemed much sturdier. Though I'm happy with my shell toe Adidas right now.


Chuck Taylors never, ever fall apart. I've had mine for about two years.



All I know is what I've seen. My Chucks were coming apart after months.

This week, I spoke at a conference in L.A. along with some really interesting artists, designers and otherwise opinionated creatives. One of the other panelists was Woody (a.k.a. Simon Wood) from Australia, who runs a great magazine called SNEAKER FREAKER (or SNKR FRKR, depending on what point you began subscribing) …

Great article. Thanks for sharing. It pretty much sums up the way a lot of people feel right now. 2006 is all about sale rail specials and picking up OGs that I wore and loves as a kid for me. There's a new 'limited' release every week at the moment and some heads are getting into serious debt. It's like Pokemon memtality - gotta catch them all.

I agree completely. There are so many pairs of shoes that I would love to own and would love to wear that I'll never get my hands on because someone is keeping them in their closet somewhere.

I'll admit I'm occasionally guilty of it myself. But my love of shoes is first and formost about wearing them. I've never bought a pait no matter how rare that didn't fit me.

Do you have an old beat up worn out pair of sneakers your thinking of throwing out or could part with? Would you be intersted in selling them? I'd love to hear from any SG girls that have an old worn out pair of converse or skater style sneakers, especially …

Weird.



Just because it isn't your thing doesn't mean you need to be judgmental.


Also, this group is for SGs to post what they're selling.

Members should post to The Swap Meet.

I have the perfect pair of trainers! I'll pm you!

And I agree with what Smythe said.

The very rare sneaker Tank. Sometimes you gotta take a break from the combat boots. In any case the boot will always conquer the sandal.

Tonight, Yuffie, aka YUBBY and I wanted to start a new SG group based on 90's hip hop with Will Smith as the set role model because the main chat was getting out of control and we wanted our own private chat room for all the cool kids to be in. We even named the group JIGGY FECK because we wanted the word JIGGY...
