I Just found a pair of Original Nike Air Max at the Thrift Store

[skra75]

Total hotness
7.99 baby
sure, they are not boxfresh in the least, looks like some guy took pretty nice care of them though.
No laces, slightly busted.
That's fine, I'm gonna fix em up and hook em up with some deep purple and neon green laces, all 90's like.
Oh yeah thay are my size too.

Oh yeah, also found a shit-hot pair of 1989 Nike Son-Of-Lava-Dome Hi-tops.
Purple and teal. They are freaking retarded, I can't believe my luck today.
And those had the special tag, they ended up being only 3 dollars.
If I fix em up, I could flip em on Ebay for 100 bucks. Not that I'd do that, they are way too fresh.

Also size 10's, sugar-sweet.
I love finding nice values.

respectfully yours,
Backwoods Chimp

Those are similar to the Air Max I found, not the Air Max 90's which I'm very fond of, they are the old fashioned kind, still fresh nonetheless.

Looking everywhere for a pic of the Hi-top Son of Lavadomes, but I can't find anything. Damn...they are just that rare.

[g-mile7]

oh man them some old school

[skra75]

whoops link doesnt work anymore...

Yeah Sorry man.
Oh yeah - found out that the other shoes are actually original Nike Baltoro's. Flippin Solid Gold. Wore 'em camping, felt fresh.

pffsh, who actually wants to see a pic of bionic scratching himself? me!

yes yes
vans are pretty nice

i prefer the trashy lace up kind you'll catch old hippies rocking on venice beach. no, for real, I do.

Still gotta grab a pair, maybe I'll hafta snag em off one of the beach bums on the pier next time I'm out west.

Kinda want a pair of turquoise ones, hook em up with an ill "Jimmy Z" tshirt and some nearly white jeans. Fresssshhhhh.

[jackrock]

this (http://www.zappos.com/images/721/7213104/1733-205099-t.jpg) is the pair i'm rockin' right now. The thing i like so much is that they always fit perfectly and feel nice to walk in. Also, the make is usually also that of a friends last name, odd?

Sorry to tell you man, but those are wack. Holy Christ.

[TurdBerglar]

your honesty is refreshing

[jackrock]

What are you talkin' about wack? One of my favorite pairs of shoe. I'm curious why you don't like them?

[CrankItUp!]

Those cool Vans kicks aren't wack at all compared to those granny loookin' Nike "sneakers". (lb)

A shoe thread that's not in Sure Shots. How original.

Here's my Vans. (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y167/TAL73/check.jpg)

[Pres Zount]

Forgive me for not apreciating their old-skoolness, but I think those nikes look a bit dumb.

I wouldn't wear them :/

[jackrock]

The only reason i wouldn't wear those is because the're completely white. Meaning they would become completely brown within a week.

[TAL]

I still have my Air Max 90's, haven't used them in over 10 years though.

thanks for the compliment.

I'm all over the granny look, like white on rice.

I prefer that over the 'I'm a wack fuck who hangs out at the mall and listens to Nickelback' look that those garbage vans deliver.

I have those.
It's kinda hard to hook em up with other clothes those with that bright infrared color. I'm all over Max 90's, easily one of the best 5 shoes ever made. I'm on the lookout for Airmax Classic BW's, if party people find a vintage pair I'll gladly pay you. No re-issues - thank you.

[skra75]

or british knights

I had some.
I admit it, I loved those trashy ass things.
I had the OG whites with the diamond on the side.

You bet bet. I love it, it's a rich feeling as I'm a frugal person who appreciates good value and fine style.

[Extra Cheese]

they're kinda wack actually. but you only paid 7.99 so you didnt waste a lot of money but still,,, wack.

Black and white checks were my very first pair of Vans way back in 1980.:)

OK OK, so maybe you're a little right. they were mega cheap, and for that my frugal ass was well pleased.

I'm kind of bored with them now, and I respect your honesty.

I can't deny my 89 hikers though, those are still mighty fresh in my book.
Only peeps that I've ever seen wear them are really, really old hippies and homeless people, a hallmark.

I need to hook up with some new shoes before I go to cali next week. I'd love to find a pair of jordan5's but that's a fucking pipe dream.

[skra75]

I've decide to paint these those, prolly this weekend.
Any tips on the best way to do it? acetone to prepare the surface , any other tips? types of paint? customizer tips welcome plz.

[Lyman Zerga]

your honesty is refreshing

lol.

[b i o n i c]

[tjpop]

[QUOTE=skra75]OK OK, so maybe you're a little right. they were mega cheap, and for that my frugal ass was well pleased.

be your own granny.

Fact:

Reebok Classics (black w/ white laces) are cooler than any Vans shoe.
