I considered that but I thought it would make me look like a complete douche. I'd rather not give that company any money either.
So you like Vans , but not really?
nike? adidas? dozens of companies make skate shoes with the same silhouette as low vans so idk what youre goin on about
supergas?

I've worn those vans for a couple of years now. Moving onto chuck 2's.
Saint Laurent xD

anyone know a good source for these? I mean, the chinese kind -- the french remake is shit, and there are a lot of different versions of the chinese ones coming from different factories.
The last 2 e-bay orders I tried had strong chemical smells and the sizes where off by 2-3 sizes too small.
wtf why hasn't anybody mentioned keds yet

>I like vans but i hate how popular they are

They are simple, durable and cheap sneakers.

He's non-comformist/overly self-conscious about people thinking he's poor.
>>11492941
i am mildly offended that you said Vans on /fa/
Can anyone give me a detailed list of why Vans are taboo on here?
>>11498459
same here, somebody tell me why I shouldn't wear my new Eras.
>>11498459
They're not, but fuccbois will try to push their sense of style on you to justify their own decisions. Around here people will bitch about anything normies wear
That being said it takes a really good fit to wear vans and not look like a highschooler, and they're not as durable, stylish or comfortable as many people here and elsewhere claim they are. Owning one or two beater vans (especially if you skate) seems reasonable, but owning several pairs will just make you look like an underaged pleb around here

Don't buy vans or anything like them if you don't skate. Unless you're getting authentics or other casual wear vans

just bite the bullet and buy the ones actually made for skateboarding and wear them, even if you don't skate, because those ARE durable. sure raging homosexual dicksponges like >>11498873 will call you a poser but only retarded autists care about that bullshit
