What's your favorite brand of shoes, why they're your favorite and if possible, show a picture/pictures of the shoe or shoes that you have of that brand that you like or that you wish you could get!

Mines are K Swiss. I love them because a lot of them are pretty simple but with good taste and they're not super expensive either. What I really like about them is that they're extremely durable! I've had one for two years and its still in tact, still comfortable, only the soles are wearing out but that's to be expected! I just bought my new pair, too!

I hate Nike and Reebok because they seem to wear out a lot faster...I really hate Nike Airs with the bubble section in the shoes, they always wear out too fast for me and the bubbles end up popping, therefore demeaning the whole design :headshake2:.

Here's my new shoes! Regular Price $70
Simple.....but stylish and nice. K Swiss just owns, by far my favorite brand for style and durability! :headbang2:

Here's my 2.5 year old K Swiss shoes. If this was Nike, there would probably just be the shoe laces left. As you can see the shoes are pretty worned out, but still intacted, comfortable, and definately wearable. These shoes have been through my part time job as a construction worker, AC assistant meaning crawling through basements and attics and stepping on nails, and hiking! I also jog with these because they're pretty nice!

Still a lot of life left yet! I'm going to use it for jogging and other rough, dirty activities.

K SWISS ALL THE WAY BABY! :headbang2::headbang2::headbang2: :devil:

I dunno how they're made, but I love K Swiss and I have no plans to go elsewhere. I'm a very happy K Swiss shoe owner!

Whatever's cheap. I kill shoes pretty quickly; I usually go through one or two pairs of boots in a year, and several pairs of deck shoes and cheap sneakers a year.

Teva brand sandals all the way year round (no hippie comments please!) I have 3 pairs, basically buy a new one every year because I can't help myself...but I still wear my original pair 75% of the time and though the rubber's almost worn through to the foam, they're still comfy and the arch still hasn't broken down. What's not to like...comfort, airflow, they dry way faster than socks if my feet get wet, and no slippage like flipflops..we're talking secure ankle straps and spider rubber! I have a permanent Teva tan :)

I haven't had my shoes really wear out since I was in elementary school. I guess because I walk mostly on tile.

Here are the shoes I wear the most. They are about 3 years old.

These are really comfy. I just rediscovered them under my bed. They are about 6 years old.

If I could go barefoot I would but for some reason thats not socially acceptable. So instead its flip-flops almost all the time. Although I do have an awesome pair of Rocket Dog boots that I love in the winter!
