Ima get some new sauconys. http://zeta.zappos.com/product/7242939/color/5222
I have a store credit to spend, but I can't decide what color to get.
or I might get these nikes in grey and pink: http://zeta.zappos.com/product/7370839/color/166663
nikes are cooler, but I know for sure that sauconys fit me really well and last for a long time. HALP MEH!
Fuschia. It's coming in. I recently photographed and designed a spread full of them.
I really wanted to have 'Back to the Fuschia' as my heading but the boss didn't like it :rolleyes:

with the Nike I'll go with the last color or the 4th box.
As for the Saucony... ummm, Cloud, Vanilla, Brown Tan, and the pure gray/navy one.

If you wear pink, get some of these (http://www.angiedawn.net/blog/uploaded_images/lacoste-arabesque-pink-709526.jpg).
Lacoste shoes are fly. My newest pair are some hot Regan 2's, stone suede with thin black + white check details along the sides. Think these (http://jdsports.scene7.com/is/image/JDSports/16445a?wid=450&resmode=sharp&op_usm=1.1,0.5,0,0) but with the colours I described.

It all stems from growing up poor and in the 8th/9th grade I couldnt afford the fancy adidas gazelles etc that everyone was rocking so I went to the SAAN store (discount store in canada) and found these sweeeet ass shows in the old men's shoe section and I used to pay like fucking 10 bucks for them. I went through about 3 pairs in 2 years. I was so ahead of the times back then:

^ That is kinda LOL to UK people. There is something of a stigma around Classics here (ie racists and the homeless wear them).

you can never go back after wearing suede shoes. I had my American Eagle Classic Joggers for about 2 year and they are still good to use for another year.
Bottom line is, suede shoes are the best type of quality that I've worn, if only classic shoe brands like Adidas, Nike, Pumas, Reebok, Onitsuka Tiger etc had better quality shoes, I would buy them.
Right now I'm aching to spend on Gazzele Skate kicks. The money shot.

Me too, cloud, then vanilla.

hmm, I might go cloud. I was thinking they were too light, but I really like red and turquoise together. maybe if they had white laces or something else I'd like them better. I don't really like it when shoes have laces that match the color of the shoes. maybe because growing up, tennis shoes only had white laces. or black I guess. meh.
I'm still undecided. I don't love any of them, but I know that sauconys fit me really well, so my best bet is to get some. I have some saucony hornets in navy, I've been wearing them for 4 years and they are solid as a rock, but they don't make them anymore. I have some turquoise and pink jazz that I got in LA a couple of years ago, but they seem too bulky. that's why I want the jazz low. mrrghblealkdjahfd.
I'm leaning toward the nikes actually, but I'm afraid they'll be too narrow.
I need more time.

also, I have some of those classics in red, but I never wear them. I think because they have red laces. I should just switch the laces. red shoes are kind of obnoxious though.

like I said, I started wearing the nylon classics back in the day because they were homeless cheap price-wise.
I have never owned a pair of shoes that have gotten more random stranger compliments than my purple leather classics. ever.

cloud or wine.
i REALLY like the pink nikes though.

Of the two you've selected, I much prefer the nikes. I really don't like the sauconys at all, I just find them a very unattractive shoe. Just my opinion, bear in mind, I don't generally like sneakers/trainers anyway.

i don't know anything about saucony's, but i personally think nike's suck in the shoe world....
i like the brown/red combo
