New Sneaker Addiction. Lol

Recommended Posts

Since Covid hit, I rarely dress up or need dress shoes, even at work.  Sneakers are the norm now and I have become addicted to the Nike custom store where you can have a pair made almost exactly to your preferences color wise.

And, by the way, I have a wide foot and the Nike air presto (lower pic) are the lightest most comfortable sneaker I ever owned    Picked up 3 more pairs in different custom colors    Normally a size 13 eee but size 14 fit perfect.  
 

I guess there are worse addictions.

Lol.   I didn’t mean to start a buy only American thread.  I get it and like the idea but like it or not, most major products are part of a global economy.   Just like cars, trucks etc.  and no I don’t want to wear Chuck taylors, although I do own one pair. 
 

Pygmy, you are welcome to set sail in one of my sneakers anytime.

Sorry not trying to highjack your thread and would never try to tell  anyone how to send their money. Just saying it something to consider.

Sorry, no disrespect intended.  Just thought it was funny that I bought a pair of sneakers last week from Walmart for $9.98, lol.  My work boots, however, were $225. Lol

No big deal and I like the idea of buying American.  But sometimes it’s not so easy if one really looks into any product and it’s components.

Prestos might be the most comfortable sneaker I’ve ever worn.

Probably used three recycled Walmart Christmas trees to make a size 14 pair of sneakers !!!!!

Please remove them from the table - my grandmother would hit you with a wooden spoon if you cursed her house with such a blasphemous gesture.
