I wouldn't, but that's because I'm way to broke to be blowing that kind of money on shoes. Plus, it's hot as fuck here, so I wear sandals most of the time.

I just paid close to that (a little more) for a pair of leather, hand stitched cowboy boots.... why are those sneakers so much money? IF you really want 'em, buy 'em, your money is yours to burn.

too much color. i like nice shoes but i dont like them to be super colorful so they dont go well with whatever i decide to wear. and im a one pair of shoes kinda guy. i only have a 2nd pair (which is my old pair and never gets worn) for in case these shoes get soaking wet.
black/grey/white are the limits of the color on my feet. and i can get some nice ass shoes for $50 too. (well, i think theyre nice)
these are what ive got now.

I saw some of those at the nordstrom rack for 40 IIRC. They had a few sizes of them in hard to miss "look at me I'm a fag" colors like that.

Honestly priz, you wont understand. They are called "kicks" ive met people that consider that a hobby. Thats what they do, buy nice nice shoes, have an entire clean shoe collection.
Personally id never buy those. They remind me of skate shoes which is middle school to me. People my age that wear skate shoes are lol. Also any kicks, are usually almost related to a culture that i laugh at daily.
but its their choice, to them im prob.... well they prob hate on me.

The most I ever spent on shoes was 65 bucks for a 100 dollar pair of Adidas... Liked them so much, I got second pair a year later in a different color(accidentally!).. 3 years later and Im still sportin both Honestly I dont know how the hell they lasted so long and still in good shape!
I have yet to find a more comfortable pair of shoes

i hate people who seem like they buy an outfit for every pair of shoes they have. and a hat too.
on the one hand, it does look nice sometimes. on the other.... gah how much money do they spend on clothing? its a little over the top to have 50 pairs of shoes and 50 hats and shirts/pants to go with them.

Hell its everyones choice. They choose to do that as a hobby, some guys at my age (23) think that skate shoes are cool. They been wearing them since middle school lol. Other wear converse out till they fall apart. I used to hate. I no longer really can. Everyone has their own thang.

they arent terrible shoes but they arent worth $130.. not by a long shot.
i dont usually mind spending more on shoes cause i know i am never really rough with them and they last a long time. my little bro tears his to shit in a matter of days so it doesnt make sense for him to spend any more than like $20 for a pair.. depends on the person.
the last pair i bought were $130 but they were Dr Martens.. totally worth $130.

im the same way except i only wear one or two outfits. i only wear plain black tshirts with jeans when its cold or khaki shorts when its hot.
i have about a dozen black tshirts and maybe 6 pants, 3 long jeans, 3 shorts. thats it.
ive got more important shit to worry about than what im going to wear every day. may as well make it easy and only have one outfit.

Get those shoes but find them cheaper online.
I still wear nikes from 2 years ago that cost 70e,they were from a shop though,not online.
I've bought others for 30e since but they're not as comfy.

I just spent 130 bucks on shox last week. Do what makes you happy. If think those shoes are awesome, than you'll feel better with yourself. It's only $130.

i used to spend alot on shoes, but that was back when u sort of got what u were paying for. The crap i see in stores now are all the same that looks like its made in china.
i remember one pair of shoes $100 were some penny hardaways and they were made out of fucking velvet/suede or something and they were worth every 'penny', the last expensive pair i bought was about 6-8 years ago some jordans that had carbon fiber in the sole i don't even know why but they did look good and were comfortable
but now i walk into a footlocker or w/e and all i see is crap, so now the only place i go to are the boot specialty stores they got some nice shoes there too and your getting leather not plastic with jessica blacks face on it

$130.. well it depends on your budget and willingness to spend, in a pinch, bottom line is that these get the job done too:

Buy Pris' $30 shoes and donate the $100 to Amani where they'll be able to fully provide for a homeless kid for three months. Roof over their head, food, medical care, primary education, the whole shebam.
You probably never donated $100 to a charity before, let alone a really awesome one like that one. Doing that, I feel, earns you far more bragging rights than $130 sneakers.
Oh and God will probably you for it at some point in your life.
Dayum if I look at that pic I want to buy that kid a pair of $2 flops, I dont know about you. That kind of inventiveness in time of need shouldnt go unrewarded.
Whatever makes you feel best mang, I'm just saying.
I'm a 300lbs guy so shoes get a super stress test with me. Prisoner's right, you REALLY get about as much mileage out of the cheap ones than the expensive ones.
Even if no charity, can you really afford to overpay at least $50 on shoes cause they look awesome?
I'm probably not the right guy to ask though, I'm 38, at my age you care fuck all about fashion statements like shoes. Theres a few basic rules (no bright white Asics under a business suit and no armani shoes under bare hairy legs and for the rest its your call.
I always wear flipflops in the house, shopping etc a pair of cheap sneaks and for long walks, dangerouys walks and nature walks a pair of rugged safety boots that double as a weapon if it really needs be.

Honestly priz, you wont understand. They are called "kicks" ive met people that consider that a hobby. Thats what they do, buy nice nice shoes, have an entire clean shoe collection.
I cant have clean shoes, it's a law, I walk out the door in the morning and walk through goat poo, by the time I've gotten to the cat there's grass and mud to contend with. not to mention, I actually do manual labor

I don't know.
I never got that idea of buying ultra expensive shoes filled with colors and patterns and shit.
The clors and patterns add nothing to the utility of the shoe, and they become a clear indicator of how old these shoes are...
I'm more of a 30$ pair of shoe guy that last forever

Vans are gay. Just bought some Jordans for 145, so don't sweat it. You only live once.
