some light philosophists ever said that
you are what you wear. i guess that works for what shoes you are wearing too. since what you wear includes the sight from the top of your hair to the bottom of your toes. ever since i know that good stuffs might cost you a lot, i have been working my ass not only for my meet ends meat, but also a proper, confortable and fashionable shoes. darn the fashion world.
they demand you to look good all the time. okay, lets forget it. since the demand is actually coming from our consumptive state of mind. well, economic principal works here. the more money you make you tend to know expensive brands. premium stuffs. the so called stuffs, label, or brand, that will guarantee the thing called satisfaction. as a person, as a consumer, satisfaction needed. yet, there are no exact brands or label that can provide you such a deal when you wear them. the most comfortable shoes on earth might be the cheapest one you ever found. well, if the shoes expensive but you are not into it mind and soul whats the point then? i love chinese people who wear the badminton shoes wherever they go. it seems light and joyful. just like the wind. since its quite flat for my eyes. and i think it fits for kon fu stuffs too. thats why it so popular on the main land. just a thought anyway. and when you r dying for a comfort, its ur state of mind that forms it.
anyway, shoes are for feet. thats the only reason i bought my shoes. some of mine were bought by paw. they were quite expensive for me that eventually i begged him to zip his card. gag. well, lately i have been doing a stiffy job, which strangely is actually really enjoyable, and it gave me money for more shoes on the shelves.
each shoes of mine brought histories, and tiny bites of laugh with it.fortunately i can provide you with images. gag.
jack purcell by
converse. i reckoned that it was the only item left on the store, and i already fell for him, so i bought it. the size was minus a half for me, but i bought it anyway. the color was
off brown. i took it everywhere. i wear it like hell. i skate with it-i used to skate-and enevtually he had to say good bye completely from me. it is really worn out.
it's my legendary shoes. and he is my first converse ever.
i went to
adidas and bought this one. it was fred durst era. fool me. this stupid pair did not stay long. i dont know who held them now. someone stole it from me. darn it. i put outside of my room. nothing really strange that night. the first time in the morning after i woke up, its gone already.
i go back to
converse. again. this time i took the beach-cut. mine is
blue-ish with floral prints on it. i took to my previous holiday in prambanan and lombok. well, this one still's my best.
after the holiday is ending, i decided that floral blue prints are way too crowded for my khakis and street edge fashion way. i read a fashion book from Japan. and this one is always hot. mine is the
creme one. he still walks everywhere with me. up to now. one of my favorite.
this is
reebok running shoes for men. mine is white with
off white and
red stripes on it. one of my favorite too. feel so lose that you dont actually realize you are wearing it. am i too much with my words? haha.
converse one star. mine with
blue star and
red stripes. i met him in the studio. one of my guess was wearing him. this one look stunning when he's completely worn out. i seek for this adorable leather for years. and now its on my shelves. my most favorite.
my eyes are on...
