This year I’ve gone for personalised Converse Crochet. Full of holesome goodness. You get to choose colour of the base ,top and stripes. Was happy with a white base but once I pressed the black base option I knew that it rocked.

DO NOT LOOK AT THE LIGHT FLASHHEART – STAY AWAAAAY FROM COOKIE JAR…

Reef Phantoms (black or aqua yellow), Sebago Docksides (three flavours of brown), Brooks Ravenna or S-Works XC.

…but you haven’t drilled  any holes in them.

Yet.

Dsquared and Olukai flip flops. Hogan trainers.

Though mine have a brown Etnies logo, not white.

but you haven’t drilled  any holes in them.

Obviously the man from Converse looked at STW and liked what he saw.

Mainly a pair of Barbour Redhead Chukka boots for work.

A pair of Etnies or Addidas Terra GTX (or whatever they’re called) for not work.

Nothing else will do

Whatever running shoes have just done their 300 miles.

Ha ha well done Dez 🙂

These. Lined with faux-fur*

*Not sure how many fauxes had to die to make these boots but I don’t give a shit.

Hot! It’s warm at best, which is nice but it isn’t hot….

Any way, some Clarks shoes for work, 4 or 5 different pairs of trainers for not at work, DC, Nike Adidas or New Balance. Or Volcom flip flops.

Ooh and 5ten districts for the ride in on the mtb this morning.

Work doesn’t count so for bumming around in it’s either of these options (not including running either)

Whatever running shoes have just done their 300 miles.

According to Strava there may be another option imminent on that front.

For me, it’ll be these:

These:

Or these:

Work: Timberland Larchmont chukka boots (because they go with everything)
Home: Reebok Nano v.4 in black
Bike: Specialized BG SPD shoes, so old they have disappeared from the internet, but they still work
Air: Old, trashed, but still good Vans Floyd in brown

14yr old pair of Oakley slaps (indestructible).
A 14 month old pair of grey Vans – worn every day at least once for general ambling and riding on and off roads.
Tan topsiders.
A pair of Caterpillar light b oots for strimming and mowing duties later.

Well, bloke off of Vampire Weekend seems to be making this a yoof fashion. And he’s with Quincy Jones’ daughter, so… er, no, I still couldn’t wear it.

My summer office / leisure shoes..

Footflaps, they are very nice. What are they?

edit: found using image search. Interesting tha tthe first result was a link to Gay Times

FiveTen Freerider, same as winter, spring and autumn

Nothing.

Footflaps, they are very nice. What are they?

I think they’re called Footflaps 😀

Footflaps, they are very nice. What are they?

Merrell Freewheel lace, cycling specific shoes. Sadly no longer made, else I’d buy some more as very comfy….

Did they recommend them as being gay friendly?

Yes, and don’t call me friendly.

Look similar to the Skechers I’ve got, although not cycling specific. Very comfy though:

Bikebouy…..what are the second pair of trainers (the grey looking ones?) really like them.

These, after I was bought a cheaper pair of NB Trainers some time ago and realised how comfy they are.

In addition to the standard Havianas….

I’m down with the brown.

Bikebouy…..what are the second pair of trainers (the grey looking ones?) really like them.

They are On Runnings – Cloud Terry. On make running shoes and also casual trainers with a sport/running focus. I really like em’ but they ain’t cheap. On make the Cloud and Cloud Terry in loads of colours and my current pair are the grey/white ones above.. the Blue ones are their Cloudventure trail running shoes.. I’ve also got their Cloudventure Peaks for running, but they are running specific..

Linky to On clouds…

Sebago Docksides (three flavours of brown)

They’re not as available as they were, sadly 🙁

I’m also sad about Merrell Freewheels being stopped. I have two pairs, black and brown

They’re very tired now, used in the office, casual use and for cycling. They’re actually very good shoes for pottering around on the brompton

Nicko, changing distributor ,I gather.
