If you have distressed jeans, and distressed sneakers, then you're trying to hard to look homeless.

You need badass shoes and shirt with your distressed jeans, otherwise you are paying extra money to look like a loser.

You can wear a bathrobe, but if you have fire on your feet, all anyone will see is the shoes.

Distressed jeans are cool, distressed shoes are dumb as ****…


They're the same thing, you just like distressed jeans
Negative.

Distressed anything looks stupid (to me), with the exception of old signs and decorations.

My point is that the distressed look is so played out. Really, what year is it!? Is it still 2004?

One last thing… distressed was cool decades ago, but NEVER for shoes. Just shop at Goodwill if you want the distressed look…

The dirty AF1's aren't for me. It's shocking how many people pay over $600 for some Golden Goose shoes. I feel like I see those things everywhere.

I don't hate them, as a concept I find it really interesting. But it does raise some questions.

1. Is the "dirt and wear" applied with the intent to make it rub off or is it a UV activated effect?

2. Assuming the "dirt and wear" are applied, they would be come new and clean looking with wear. But after becoming "clean" would they then become worn looking again after continued use? And would that then mean they looked "new" again meaning they looked like they did NIB?

3. What if the break in period or wear is not even? Does that mean that part of the shoe would not look clean? Or would it get clean then dirty again but only in one area? I pronate quite a bit and I tend to brush my feet together when I walk so the inside of me heels often develop stain, especially from the dye of my jeans.

4. If it's UV activated, could it ever become fixed? Think back to the hypercolor tshirts of the 90s. The first one I ever owned was so bad ass (at least I thought so) but my mom ruined it by running it through the dryer and fixing the color change. Could that happen to these?

5. Am I overthinking this?

Same here.

When I am visiting my company headquarters in NYC, I always pass by a Golden Goose store on my walk to work. That place is always packed with people.

Nah, your head is exactly where mine is. I have a pair of Yeezys that are white and yellow but turn purple in the sunlight.

Wear these all the time, one of my favorite recent pairs. I think I prefer the black laces above the others.

But man, I'm really not a fan of the untied, hidden laces look on 3's. I think that can work well with low tops but just looks weird with high tops

Anyone need help trying for the CSef dunks. I got my pair locally so I can enter for someone then ship when they arrive

Pegasus Premiums are the best new Nike model this year to me. The price is crazy, but man that's such a good looking shoe.

I only have one more pair Im getting and then there is nothing on my list until the narduar tartan dunks.

However I feel like I'm supposed to go for the WC 4s bc they are OG. I'm getting sucked into the hype. Is it just me? Same thing happened with the wet cement 4s and I ended up letting them go.

Do you think you'll wear them? It's as simple as that. These won't have noticeably better materials or anything. These UNC 1s are an OG colorway, did you feel compelled to get them?

That said, I am fully in on the white cement 4s and the grape 5s. I do love OGs and I only have one pair of white 4s, and no pairs of white 5s
