Did you ever wear autism shoes?
why is this specific pair of white NB sneakers associated with neckbeards/robots/autism?
I've seen this meme in a few places (not just on 4chan) and I don't get it.
>>24539143
Not all artists where New Belance shoes, but anyone who wears it is most likely an autist.
I grew up in the 90s, and white sneakers were the only kind then. Haven't worn them since.
That is the exact model sneeker they issue in USN basic training. Or at least it was when I cycled through.
>>24539143
Usually because it's not the most fashionable shoe. Only wearing it ironically could you pull it off.
Anyone else actually wear these for running? How do they feel?
>>24539143
Just look at them. Do they not scream autism to you?
I have a pair. I use them to go running. If not I just use my 5 dollar sandals
I wore moccasins for so long
>>24539223
Autism starter pack ;)
My shoes. I don't think they're that bad.
>>24539127
my parents made me wear these?
I fucking hated them but god damn they were comfy.
>>24539301
>I'll take a pic of my sister's shoes
>this will ruse the goyim :^)
>>24539330
My sister is a hooker, she only wears whore shoes.
I used to wear these all the time. Now I mostly just wear them for hiking on rare occasions.
My dad wears only autism shoes.
>>24539143
it's not a meme, it's empirically true
>tfw have diagnosed autism
>tfw have never worn autiism shoes
>>24539448
But anon, any shoes you wear are autism shoes ;-)
>>24539127
I run every morning.
Yes.
>>24539143
They are unfashionable, hard to match with anything, have colors/patterns splish sploshed about chaotically etc
Bulkiness is a dead giveaway for autism shoes. Stand back and look at yourself wearing them as a whole. If they look too big compared to the rest of your body or "weird" then they're autism shoes. Try to avoid New Balance shoes as most of them give off an autistic vibe.
Are white nikes autism shoes?
>>24539143
Actual autist here.
Fun fact about autism that a lot of people don't know is that a lot of us have balance and coordination issues, and when we are growing up this can create a lot of foot and leg pain. I was lucky enough to have physical therapy as a kid to help correct a lot of my problems. I know it sounds weird, but I can recognize other autists by gait a lot of the time since a lot of us have such similar problems.
What did the doctors and physical therapists say? Wear running shoes with good arch support and special insoles. What company makes cheap running shoes while still usually having decent arch support? New Balance.

Post em. I'll give you an honest answer.
I have a pair but don't wear them because they look like autism shoes. They're comfy as fuck though.
>>24539464
Hehe that's true. I'm a girl though so OP's shoes wouldn't fit me anyway,
>>24539561
>>24539585
>>24539609
you guys aren't getting it. it's that EXACT design and colour shown in the OP that is the autism shoe
>>24539608
I know the feel
>tfw autism
>tfw suck at video games and driving because of poor coordination
>tfw totaled 3 cars in 4 years
>>24539649
no, there are a huge variety of autism shoes
I have several pairs of these.
>>24539143
its a case of autists calling everything autistic because after having their sperg pointed out by everyone they internalize it as the ultimate insult and apply it to everything.
Not shoes, but cargo shorts are autism as fuck
>>24539761
i remember a time when a hollister shirt, cargo shorts and nice old navy flops were a go-to outfit
fuck im getting old
>>24539761
Collezione
>>24539742
Because when everythings autistic...nothing will be
>>24539818
i carry exactly one of those things
guess which one it is
>>24539818
i'm always disappointed this guy doesn't have pocketsand
>>24539859
yup, just like 'k u c k' and 'roastie', retards have ruined any meaning the terms may have had.
>>24539863
1. old nokia
2. knife
3. 3ds
>>24539890
ding ding ding

>>24539894
confirmed nigger
>>24539947
nope just autist
butterfly knives are fun to play with
>>24539561
There are some good NB models out there if you avoid all white or black. Pic related is creme de la autism
>all of the cool kids like Nike, I can't go wrong with these
>>24540069
I forgot the fucking pic
>>24539777
I was in highschool in the Midwest a few years back. That was worn by half of the cool jocks... from middleschool through highschool.
>>24539127
>tfw cute coworker
>Really positive and kind personality, a bit weird/too hyper
>21 years old and doesn't swear, says shit like 'fudge cupcakes, gosh darn it'
>Dresses kinda frumpy and wears really ugly, outdated glasses
>Literally becomes chad when he takes his glasses off
>Look down one day
>Autism shoes and dad socks
I was willing to look over the other red flags desu but that was the last straw
>>24539561
Actual Aspie here. I used to wear these shoes in High school and for a few years in college. I never thought of them as "autism shoes"
>>24540371
If they were colored like that then they weren't
>>24540383
I had the black and white ones at first and then latter switched to the all black ones. they never had any of that orange coloring in the picture >>24539561
>>24539761
I always wear cargo shorts when the weather's nice, I don't see how they are "autistic" and when the weather isn't nice I wear cargo pants.
>>24539663
>be me
>24yo
>don't even have a learner's permit
I tried learning to drive years ago, but driving scares me.
>>24540371
>>24539127
Yeah me too. They're hella comfy.
>>24539127
That's literally the shoe I'm wearing right now.
>>24540447
pic please bredrin
>>24539187
K Swiss and Tretorn, I remember wearing those
u ain't wearing huaraches u a clown nigga
This is what I switched to when I >>24540371 couldn't find these >>24539561in the stores anymore. Are these "autism shoes" too?
I used to wear Velcro's because I have dysgraphia until 8th grade
>>24540626
My mom would threaten to buy me Velcro shoes whenever she was in a rush and I had to tie my shoes, because it took me about 5 minutes or longer to tie my shoes.
>>24540618
nope 2bh bredrin
>>24540618
now I just wear boots all the time (for the past year). One of the nice things about station boots is that they have a zipper on the side so I don't have to tie them or untie them to put them on or take them off.
>>24540603
Those poverty Y3 clones are played out
The only shoes I've worn for the past three years are these busted up vans that are practically half duct tape right now.
Pretty comfy
>>24539818
>magnums
kek
anybody /flat foot/ here?
fucking sucks bros
>>24540824
same here, except mine are leather and steel tow, super comfy though
>>24540920
What's bad about it?
My dad wears autism shoes and it embarrasseds me. How can I get him to stop wearing them without hurting his feelings ?
>>24541077
Lots of men in their 40s and 50s do, they're dad shoes
>>24541077
Buy him some good shoes? Pic related, best shoe under $100 anyone could buy desu
>>24541104
then he'll be the embarrassed one and will wear them to not hurt anon's feeling
i wear them ( at least in summer, now it is too cold)
>>24540618
where I live, they grey 990s are the go-to cool black kid sneaker. the 574s look less autistic to me, though.
>>24541277
>"Oh, are you training for a triathlon, anon?"
...n-no, I just like aerodynamic shoes for maximum efficiency.
>>24539127
when i was in middle school, maybe even in high school
>>24539561
574s arent autism shoes fyi
>>24540423

>>24540920
i have flat feet. i walk 4 miles a day at work in normal steel toe boots without any sort of arch supports or insoles. never had any problem due to my flat feet to be honest family.
>>24539127
>tfw dad wears those
>>24541696
>>24541696
That's some /fa/ level of autism.
>>24541766
>acceptable normie clothes
>autism
No wonder you're on /r9k/
>>24541696
Those are all hideous except the cargo shorts that go past the knees. Yet some how you Nerotypicals think you dress better then us.
I've seen many normies wear it
>>24541077
autism shoes are dad shoes
>>24541104
that would look autistic in an older man.
>>24541795
>Those are all hideous except the cargo shorts that go past the knees.
Is this you? kek
>there are people who unironically care about clothes and shoes
>implying clothes matter outside of formal events / job interviews
Only women give a shit about what shoes you're wearing lads and the opinion of a woman isn't worth wiping your ass with.
I used to wear keens, i still cringe thinking about them
>>24539198
No, we get issued a different model now. Different color, but same shoe.
>>24539143
because autists always wear them
even in my small yuropoor country
these are THE autism shoes
>>24540824
boots are fucking awesome but in my country they have a really bad reputation
Until the 9th grade, when I stopped being an autist.
>>24542198
where you from, anon?
original shit

who up?
I keep telling my nephew that I think he has autism. He thinks I'm just trolling him.
pic related, his shoes.
>tfw when wearing autistic shoes right now
>>24539608
Autism isn't real
>>24542905
>autism isn't real
>but if you wear these shoes you have autism
pick one.
>>24539818
I'm not gonna lie.
I want that wallet. It looks pretty neat.
>>24539761
Cargo shorts are great, yo. They go with almost anything and are comfy for summer. Cargo pants, on the other hand, are autism.
>>24540423
Cargo shorts are great, yo. They're comfy for summertime and go with almost any shirt and shoes. Cargo pants, on the other hand, are pretty bad looking.
I bought these for work and they're super comfy and wide and if you don't like them, then well, you know what?I'll feel slightly bad.
>>24543958
Kind of looks like special retard shoes.

>this is what deluded people tell themselves!
KEK.
Honestly, I can't believe it's nearly 2016 and there are people here in denial about autism shoes who still don't understand it.
>>24539143
Its because of the guys who can *teleport* around
>>24539127
Post you're shoes
>>24545246
No it isn't.
It's because the ONLY people under say 35 you ever see wearing those shoes are actual special needs people or complete and utter spergs.
>>24545279
>the utter mediocrity of tween tier Vans.
