Classics....The Stans with Boost soles aren't pre-stitched, doc. They're ultra-comfy.

Superstar Boost is still stitched.

my stan smith classic's stitches are visible until just past the first stripe. beyond that, i have no idea...

superstar classic is nice. but the ones available at the mall seem to be narrower than what my feet want.

when we were much younger, these two models were status symbols in school.
today.. i have two pairs.

Yes, up to the toe joint on those....Max stress area. You can get some cobbler continue the stitch all around the groove.

hindi muna.
"i'll wait, for until it becomes necessary."

personally, i have never had an adidas open up on me.

some years ago, my merrell opened up on me.
it took some time for me to try the brand again.
today, after about a year of abuse for my second purchase, my new merrells are still good.
apparently, they had since solved the adhesive issue.

Oh the Classics...love em for their durability. The soles just yellow but refuse to crumble. No programmed obsolescence. Still got this vintage serving me well....sadly the stripes have given up.[emoji53]

But dad shoes are actually chunky sneakers, like the fila disruptors or the adidas Yungs, and the tigers are the exact opposite.

Tigers are not in fashion anymore, thats why you dont see them often. Its 3-4 years past its prime.

And the ultimate throwback Chuck 70s must be called Grumpa's?[emoji4] They brought the subtle vintage details back....the smaller toe cap, higher rubber siding in glossy off white, etc. These won't get cobbler stitches.[emoji4]

during Sunday Mass, during Communion.
i have this habit of seeing the footwear of those in queue for Communion, as they walk by.
today, in one line alone, i saw at least six pairs of tigers on the feet of what do not look like members of the same family. youngsters and not-so-youngsters.
while on other days, the nikes or the adidae win, today it's tigers.
