What of it? Does everybody put on their emergency tactisms when it rains?
>>28501829
What does that have to do with anything?
That's like asking if everyone uses an umbrella or wears a coat. I don't know but maybe they should consider it. I'm not saying wear your combat boots to a wedding, just they seem to have a good grip and are water proof.

How many people do you know who specifically choose shoes for every day wear based on their ability to repel water?
It's this sort of thinking that reveals your autism, anon.
>>28501990
idk, I live in NYC and walk everywhere. I most certainly do.
>>28501177
Oh boy, yet another autism shoe thread. Let me give you guys a hint and this is coming from years of experience. If you find yourself in an autismal situation due to your footwear odds are you'd still be robotic while wearing stylish shoes as well.
You can dress a monkey in a suit all you want, the problem lies within, this comes from a fellow robot who has given up.

Why bother posting. Obviously you're beyond redemption so mind your business and ignore these threads.
>>28501990
You're talking like people buy one pair of shoes and that's it.
do you seriously not own a pair of shoes that is water resistant?

So other anons can follow in my footsteps, when I said given up I meant given up on such matters, not everything.
Alas it is my fault for lacking description so I apologize.
>>28502282
I didn't imply anything at all about only buying one pair of shoes
Stop making things up because you've been BTFO. Typical omega, cowering pitifully behind a strawman.

>Not owning a pair of Combat Boots
Normies need to leave
>>28502020
So far, combat boots have been perfect for walking in this fine city of ours
I'm friends with a bunch of alt-normies who always complain about their feet hurting or their feet being too hot or too wet, while i'm walking in comfort with my combat boots.
all it takes is a pair of insoles and some Nikwax and you're set, my feet haven't hurt in months.
>>28501177
>mfw i have these and wear them everywhere
>>28501177
>tfw mainly stuck with my snowboots or black shoes to walk around (sometimes for adventures)
>tfw I never bought the other boots, but I supplemented them with my snowboots
It's like I'm a failed autismo. Can someone recommend me a boot that I can get in Canada? I want a good pair, snowshoes won't last forever.
I like how boots have thicker soles so they don't hurt my feet when walking on uneven ground (I also have a heavy step I feel). Oh, and the water resistant aspect is cool too. Know any good books that are also waterproof? I want to wade in a shallow part of a nearby river, maybe find a way across. Boots are cool desu, I like em.never knew how to tie them though, there is usually so much extra lace that I just make a big knot with them...
>caring this much about foot wear
I thought there was a no girls allowed rule
r8 my moccasins, /r9k/
it's literally better than anything
>>28502036
i highly doubt that this is the same autist
I unironically like the first 3 pairs of shoes posted. I'd buy/wear them if I wasn't a NEET.
>>28502785
Nikwax? I'm new to the boot scene, can you tell me more? I'm >>28502827 , pretty much I'm a robot who didn't know about his autism preference and now is ready to follow the chosen path
I ride motorcycles year round so I am usually in my motocross boots or my pic related steel toed Harley boots.
More so than combat boots, cargo shorts are the definitive sperglord fashion statement.

waterproofing wax for leather, they also have stuff for suede but i don't own anything suede atm
shit works pretty well, a tube will last you a while, my boots have been waterproof for 4 months already? every few months you should put on a new coat
also Obenauf's LP is a pretty good product too; it protects your shit from abrasive chemicals, salts, rotting and stitch tear, and when you bump your boots on shit. idk how true the claims are, but it smells fantastic and leaves your leather nice and soft.

my nigga
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpvuwEkG_Ro
>>28503012
Do you remove the previous coating before applying a new coating? How's this done?
Also how to check if the coating's still good?
>not knowing Yeezy jumped over jumpman
>wearing straight cut jeans
Truly the peak of autism
>>28501177
>You're like those autists who wear hiking shoes to the mall
Listen here, nigger
>>28503085
you don't remove it, i'm pretty sure it just wears off through you moving around or just natural wear and tear; i don't know much about chemistry but i'm assuming all of the molecules at some point attract all the water they can, or heat and extra moisture does something with it.
to put it on you get ,whatever footwear it is you're waterproofing, soaking wet and rub in the wax until you've done the whole item. it says pay special attention to any seams or where any hardware is because water can easily seep in through there
you can tell when you need a new coating if you run it under some water and the water doesn't bead up as well, or when you're walking around in the rain or through puddles and your feet feel wet, because this should keep you 100% dry (in my experience that is)
>>28503078
Damn. That cover is great. Nice one anon.
>>28503012
Thanks, I might look up this stuff, maybe find a good boot to buy as well. How do you coat your boot btw? Does it waterproof the tongue?
For boot buying: where do you recommend I look? What characteristics should I look for in a boot? What exactly are tactisms and are they good insulators (can use them for winter, if your feet sweat, the cold won't go through the boot and freeze the sweat and cause cold feet. Pretty much looking for a "closed system" boot)?
>>28502886
What footwear is this? What's the point? How effective is it at keeping your feet comfy and warm? Is this a boot for going through water and such?
>>28503198
Thanks for the information anon, I never knew this was done to shoes beside aesthetic reason. It's sort of like waxing/putting fat on old winter parkas.
>>28501177
>nobody cares about shoes
I don't, for sure. At least how they look.
Dressy shoes hurt my feet, which I spend a lot of time on. Business casual at the office, employee functions, formal dress at sister's wedding, fuck you, boots.
I'm a fucking robot. If I have to play with the normies, I'm not going to have sore feet
>>28503283
About as effective as a cock cozies.
>>28503283
to be a fukken ninja. Haven't you ever watched shitty 80s/early 90s martial arts flicks?
>>28502827
you should pay attention to this
>>28503246
no, look up the stuff, i'm telling you it'll save you loads of discomfort and wasted money on new footwear and socks. as for coating the boots i explained in>>28503198 if the tongue is leather, then yes it does. in my example, my boots are all leather except the soles so i just rubbed that shit all over my boots. for boot buying i just say go military honestly. military or work boots are the best because they're built to last. i don't know shit about boots really, but the ones that i've had last me the longest have been my combat boots and a pair of old hiking shoes. i guess the characteristics you should look for depend on what you'll be doing with them and the type of place you live in, but the base ones should be leather body, Vibram soles, and high enough to protect your ankles. modern combat boots are sleek and practical so i say go with those
>>28503246
(cont.)
unless the boots you're buying are already waterproof/snow boots you're going to have to rely on the socks that you wear when it comes to weather. my boots alone are probably shit for all weather, but i stuck a pair of generic brand odor eating insoles in there, bought some thick socks for the winter and treated them with the stuff i mentioned before. it's super easy, just go by what your concerns are and you'll find a product for it.
there's a brand called drimax that makes socks that are supposed to keep your feet dry all of the time, but i read mixed reviews about them
just play it smart is all
>>28503363
Cool, thanks. I'll Google some other things about boots when I get the chance. One final thing, what's the difference between combat and hiking boots? Size? The Sole? Flexibility? Waterproofing?

it doesn't do anything to them aesthetically really, it just makes them work better, idk.
but yes it sounds kinda like that? except i'm sure that smells like shit haha.
>>28503421
eh they basically both do the same shit. both have special treads for more traction, both are made to take a beating, both are designed with some kind of ergonomics in mind. i personally would go with combat boots because they're a little bit of everything rolled up into one. soldiers definitely have to hike up shit and cross bodies of water, right? the military designs their shit for every possible situation it seems, so why not just go with that? it's up to you in the long run, but like i said a pair of modern tactical boots treated the right way goes a long way.
>>28501177
It takes a very special kind of autist to wear those boots to a mall. They are a rare breed indeed.
(Also, OP is somewhat autistic for making these threads again and again every couple of months).

Also if anyone has experience with it i would appreciate some opinions on it.
>>28504226

>>28504315
Do you even know what a combat boot looks like?
>>28504365
Of course.
That's why I asked. Is this some modern hybrid/interpretation? Looks like they may be Adidias.

ex military here
tbqh i would never wear anything as faggoty as those even on duty. the OP's boot pic looks like shit too.
good boots are comfortable when worn for 10+ hours, breathe well, give a lot of support high up the ankle (you can practically lean inside them), have steel toes, and have hooks for bands you can fold the sock over the end of the boot and secure it (so your socks don't get bunched up into your boot), have many eyelets, and double eyelets at the top (for double loop around tie if you want)
if it sounds like an awful specific list of shit... well, that's because it is. tools need to work well, and boots are a tool.
because boots are a tool, walking around in combat boots is seriously like walking around with a tool belt, a pocket protector with pens, or a hammer and nails in your hand. just cargo / parachute pants, looks inappropriate.
back at college now living the dream but i see these fat spergs walking around in tactical boots, shit makes me sick, not to be overly dramatic but i know cats that died in those boots and you're strutting around with your magic the gathering deck and your combat boots looking autistic as fuck.

Not even angry bro, just letting you in on how the real world works. Young Thug wore a dress on his album cover and is still regarded as "gangster", and here you are arguing over the difference between one form of mens boot to another. This is the definition of autism, and if I had anything better to be doing that destroying you for the enjoyment of other autists, I would be out.

Combat boots aren't necessarily autism boots, but desu senpai anyone wearing tactical boots covered in plastic bits to make it "tacticool" is either an air soft kiddie, or a fat fuck.
But Doc Martins, and boots that actually look good with jeans, even cowboy boots, are pretty good on most anyone.
I wear boating shoes I wear around town with a pair of steel toed leather work boots for work (construction fag).
Also, if you wear tacticool boots because you're a biker, you already are autistic. No one finds sports bikes attractive unless you are, and wearing a neon polymer jacket with a helmet that completely covers your face makes you look like an autist, not a fucking super spy.

I actually got the idea to buy them from reading a Navy SEAL's biography. He mentioned wearing them on duty in the book, and i was curious how they looked, so i checked them out and liked how they looked. Trying to get some opinions on it before buying now as you see.
Got a pair of these fuckers coming on mail

>Combat boots aren't necessarily autism boots
No, they're definitely autism boots
>Doc Martins
Are not in any way tactisms.
>>28510742
Your "facts" are you referencing tweenager tier pop music and expecting to be taken seriously. Shut the fuck up you shameless retard.
what if someone's wearing them because they're about to shoot up the place? is it still autistic? normies are the ones with an autistic obsession with life.
>>28503283
Just how fucking young are you to not have seen those style of Japanese footware? Come the fuck on, man.
>>28504276
They look heavy and uncomfortable as fuck. That said, I usually opt for the cheapest, lightest part of canvas shoes I can grab from K-mart. Stopped caring about what people thought of my shoes a long time ago. Whatever floats your boat, really.
>>28511211
It's pretty much pure, unadulterated autism, anon. Much like this statement :
>normies are the ones with an autistic obsession with life.
>caring this much about shoes
Steve Carell wears what you guys call "autism shoes." You think he gives a fuck?
>>28511362
He's a middle aged man. Dressing like that as a young man is what makes it autistic. Everything in that picture epitomises exactly what dressing like a sperg is.
>>28511176
Am I really gonna need to get hold of the sales trends for mens boots?
Will your autism settle then?
You really can't admit that society follows the herd?
women care what shoes men wear .......but then the question is do YOU care if they care about the shoes you wear?
wear cool shoes and have a chance at getting laid or wear autism shoes and jerk off to lara croft the choice is yers.......
>>28511362
That was from a movie whete his character was being ridiculed for being a clueless autist.
They're literally a costume.
Kek
Omg. The autist in this thread defending their military surplus as acceptable street wear.
Full on retards.
>>28511362
literally a screenshot from a movie. jesus christ how stupid are you people???
r8 muh tactism boys. Have unironically wore these with jeans and wigger ran up and saidWHAT ARE THOOOOOSE
>>28512012
Are you going for the 'I'm a retard who spends 8 hours a day on pol' look?
Every once in a while I see a mega autist in the wild wearing -I shit you not- full matching BDUs (the old 90s ones), cover and all. AND he tucks the top into the bottom and wears a shitty old leather belt, plus the boots mentioned in the OP.
Take note that this is a guy with a bowl cut, transition lenses, lanyard full of keys and pins, and various other autism red flags
I can only imagine he does this to get recognition from senile old retards that think he could possibly have served.
>>28511965
And luck how fucking bad he looks compared to RG.
What did that anon think he was proving?
>>28504276
I've never seen anything so autistic.
>>28512093
Tbf those are retarded looking, but it is a consciously contrived style. Not really autistic.

I hike with these if that counts...
>Not liking dry feet

Are you a grill? Or just a masochistic faget?
Tbh I never have a choice when it comes to footwear
Finding size 15 (US) is damn near impossible
>>28512134
Settle down GI Joe.
Are these autism shoes?
I don't care desu
>>28501177
Those actually look good though, /fa/goot here just wear techwear
>>28512234
Those look good if you are in active combat.
That's where it stops m
>>28501177
I have size 15 feet. The least expensive off-the-shelf option for me is military suplus boots. And honestly, I really don't care what a bunch of teenyboppers think of my fashion sense. Besides, I already wear a tactical vest and a fedora, so it all matches. (And I look good in it too.)
As a girl, I'm not super familiar with the nuances of men's footwear, but it's really obvious when a guy is clueless about how to dress. That said, it's usually not just the shoes that give it away. You can spot an unaware autist a mile away. I don't find these people in the wild to be offensive, but I don't think I could bring myself to date a guy that lacked the desire to present himself in a way that's flattering for his build. Perhaps that's a bit shallow, but it's true.
>>28505621
Use correct measurements. No sane man uses sandnigger units
>>28512341
>Perhaps that's a bit shallow
Not really. 99% of robots here wouldn't date a hamplanet dressed in some hipster clothes with a feminist haircut.
The first impression is always the most important and clothes give huge hints about a persons life. That being said, I personally don't care anymore about my looks so I'm 100% for military autist shoes.
>inb4 some faggots argue against this
What is /r9k/'s obsession with clunky, au-tactical boots? Jesus, this thread.
How many of you have foot fungus?
>>28512418
We're going to argue that you6really don't care?
Nope. That much is obvious.
>>28512432
It's nerd neckbeard shit. Wearing a paramilitary gear is the same dynamic as owning a katana.
>>28512432
What is anon's obsession with /r9k/'s choice of wearing clunky, au-tactical boots? Jesus, this /fa/ggotry.
>>28512482
You understand that 90% of the shit we use everyday was paramilitary at some stage, right?
>>28512482
Not everyone here is a skinny teenybopper; some of us actually see action on the streets. I started wearing a tac vest, for example, because as a community organizer I need to carry so much stuff with me: pipe, tobacco, lighter, recording devices, notebooks, forms, pens, bug spray, knife, and so on. I had an uncle who did the same kind of work and he wore a fishing vest for the same reason. I went to an army surplus and asked them for a vest with lots of pockets; they suggested the tac vest, which is mesh and a lot cooler in the summer than a fishing vest.
>>28512521
Sigh. Your reaction was to up the neckbeard level?
>>28512551
Ok dude. Are you going to post the pics of the activist retard who lives in a basement?
>>28512575
I *am* "the activist retard," thanks.
>>28501177
Haha shit, those look like my work boots. Just got a summer job working in a rail yard.
>>28512581
Yeah. You shouldn't be giving out life advice to anyone.
>cargo shorts are autism
So what do I wear when it gets hot outside?
>>28512599
Why not? I look good and I have a full and satisfying life despite being a full-on robot. *And* I break all the r9k fashion rules: I wear a fedora, a tac vest, military boots, a trenchcoat, and I smoke a pipe -- and look good while doing it. People could do far worse than to follow my example and tell the conformist, judgemental asshats in here to go pound sand.
>>28512629
You must be really sad to troll this hard for this long.
>>28512610
Regular shorts.

>tfw you can never dress like characters in movies without looking like a complete sperg
If I were an actor, I would stay in costume all the time. Just for the hell of it.
If I were chris evans, I would wear the captain america suit to go do the food shopping.
>>28507175
Those are pretty not autistic tbqh
They look like one of those cheaper famous footwear models tho
The other shoes look extremely redditor, even though normies do not know that word they will assign that type to you
>>28512648
This word you bitter little troglodytes like to use, "troll," it doesn't mean what you think it means. Just because my experience falls outside the claustrophobic little confines of your small, white, suburban excuse for a life doesn't mean I'm trolling. Nor does holding opinions which differ significantly from the kids in your middle school make me a troll.
You kids really need to get outside the bubble of your comfort zone once in a while. It would do you some good and make you less obnoxiously judgemental.
>>28501177
Nigga you clearly have never worn combat boot, good brands can get real comfy.
Great for going /out/ or working in a non office setting
>>28512695
Yeah dude. Get a better hobby.
>>28512697
Moon boots are 'comfy' too you raging autist.
>>28512675
But those make me look like some kinda skinny white fag.

I promise you it's not the shorts.
>>28512695
>make you less obnoxiously judgemental.
Lmao the fucking irony. Do you have any self awareness at all?

Seeing as I've hosted two radio shows, run for public office, have been on the front page of every newspaper in the country as recently as last year, have a Wikipedia article written about me, am a published author, and have outed myself repeatedly here so that anyone who questions my identity can FUCKING CALL ME ON THE PHONE, it must be a really fucking good persona, man.
Seriously, you idiots really need a smack in the chops. In my experience, your kind of obnoxious loser attitudes respond very well to physical correction.

Yeah, Donald Trump here. I'm famous too bro.

Here's your (you). I, a person with low-level celebrity which has apparently driven you into a jealousy-fueled turbo-assholishness, have acknowledged your existence and will carry the annoyance with me like an ugly and unpleasant souvenier. You can stop trying to jerk my chain now.

Nice comeback, I'm sure you'll be a hit with the ladies as soon as they notice you're wearing shoes that r/foreveralone told you were cool.
>>28513032
Depends what you mean by unsuccessful. The incumbent and I had been each other's personal devils at city hall for more than a decade, and the only reason I ran was to turf him out of office. I came in third (from a field of 7), causing him to lose the election by just 44 votes. Felt pretty good. The media considered me a viable candidate rather than a fringe candidate but I never had any illusions about winning, so I lost the election but I think I was successful nonetheless.
>>28513033
Post pic holding a sign saying r9k w/ today's date.
We'll wait.
>>28513087
Yeah I'm sure someone who's just oh so important would have the free time to come to this board and bitch about shoes. No one here believes you.
>>28513093
No. I won't. For two reasons. First, as I've repeatedly explained to you children, I live a life of voluntary simplicity. That means all my possessions except my computer fit in a single backpack. I have no fridge, no stove, and take sponge baths in the sink. I sleep on an old piece of foam. And I not only do not own a cellphone, I have never even *used* a cellphone. So I have no way to take a "selfie." Second, even if I was able, I still wouldn't. A large part of the reason I keep posting to r9k is to get through to people that you DON'T need to prove anything to anyone except yourself. I know who I am, and anyone who cares enough can verify my identity by picking up a fucking telephone and calling me. Otherwise, I really don't give a flying fuck at a tumbling bagel what anyone believes.
>>28513093

>>28512610
Here's a basic outline of how to dress decently while keeping cool, without looking like a try hard /fa/ggot:
Shirts:
-fitted polo
-fitted short-sleeved button up
-short-sleeved Henley t-shirt
-linen shirt
Note: Fitted does not mean tight. Fitted means that it is flattering for your shape and isn't boxy or billowing. You still want proper airflow to keep you cool. There are tons of guides on line for how to judge whether a shirt fits you correctly or not. This is especially important if you are a big guy or very scrawny.
Pants:
-fitted flat front shorts
-slim fit chinos
Avoid denim if you can, as it's a heavy fabric with a tight weave that won't breathe well. Any tropical weight cotton pant will be far more comfortable.
Shoes:
-boat shoes
-canvas sneakers
-Italian loafers/moccasins
Other tips:
-Try ditching a heavy leather belt for a lighter woven cotton belt or braided leather
-If cargo shorts appeal to you for the storage, try a lightweight shoulder bag to carry your items
-pick shirts and pants in different colors and textures to add a pop of interest
