asics are back, maximalist comfort and the practicality of a father these shoes work, seeing them worn with baggy pants and shorts alike, personally I love the dad esc swag, but for me when the whole outfit gets too father like i.e. crew white socks,...

the gel nyc are hot, becoming much more common on the subway, similar to the kayano they are a classic practical shoe, they give off y2k in a lego boy way. I am highly considering purchasing a pair of these once I find the right colorway

cool colorways, simple shoe, adds great flair to a basic fit, lots of grungier estethics here, not as common as the other adidas out there so these are kind of a statement

these on clouds are very trendy but are getting a little out of style for men, for women these are great daily shoes as well as runners, for men these should mostly be used as running or athletic shoes. I prefer muted colors and beige for these shoes...

Some of my favorite slippers, I don't see these out an about on the street very often, but they are great for around the house shoes that can also maybe allow for a quick walk to the bodega if you allow that. They are comfy, and sturdy.

The birkenstock boston is one of those elusive shoes that comes and goes in popularity at will. For a while these were seen all over, from airports to bodegas to beaches and subways. They are a great buy to have on hand and they are very versatile le...

I saw these shoes on a kid on the train and I instantly knew that bro was very very cool. These are a bit expensive to say the least, but when you throw these on and walk around you are making a statement and go off at the very least you have earned ...

These are some goofy ahh shoes but they make a statement and if you have a slight sense of confidence you will pull them off and look like a baddie. They are once again a bit expensive, but if I can ever afford these I will absolutely be subtly flexi...

Similar to the Runner these are a statement shoe, expensive and showy but not so out there that it is in your face, its subtle and shows taste
