When I retire I'm getting the shoes with toes; I don't care what anyone thinks or says, I want to be comfortable

[–] Esoteir@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

you know whoever made this is a shoelib when the most materialist shoe of all time (the toe shoe) isn't the communist shoe brow

Horse ~~shoe~~ boot theory

[–] Pat_Riot 3 points 1 month ago

Bodyglove 3T's are the best water shoes I have found. You can even swim normally with them.

[–] vovchik_ilich@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

If you want comfy and affordable barefoot shoes, make yourself some huarache-style sandals. Takes 15 minutes, they're extremely minimalistic, and very cheap to make using something like vibram sole material and a length of paracord.

Mostly liberal agony-shivering

I did recently get into barefoot shoes (just not the ones with the toes) and honestly I thought I would have needed more time to adjust to them.

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

barefoot shoes

theyre great! i've used em for a decade plus now, running, walking and work and i'll never stop

[–] vovchik_ilich@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

I'm happiest with my 20€ barefoot shoes from aliexpress, I refuse to pay 70€ for what amounts to shoes with less stuff. I'm also super happy with my self-made huarache sandals, super fresh and comfy, very minimalistic and can be made for 10€ of materials or less.

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is it liberal to want comfortable shoes?

[–] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Onitsukas (or Asics), the yellow ones under socialism, are probably the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn.

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

I've owned Asics before and I prefer my 990s, but they're both fine shoes.

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 14 points 1 month ago

Laces are fascism. Fuck this liberalism.

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

i get the appeal behind barefoot shoes but did they have to add the accent that looks like toenails?

[–] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How would you know they were imitating a foot otherwise?

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

make them smelly

they should make a flesh colored line. that would be fun.

[–] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Lol, flesh colored would be fun, but I don't think they need any help being smelly.

[–] lilypad@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I dont really have sneakers...

But i have some high heeled combat boot shoes, what does that make me?

Please say femmepunk communist?

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 9 points 1 month ago

My boots have gotten work-bootier over time, straying from the standard DMs. I do keep some pretty boots off to the side

if you wear toe shoes you're a weirdo and i'll never trust you

[–] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 month ago

Is this universal?

I got some a long time ago and found they make excellent river shoes. It's like being barefoot only you don't slice your feet open on sharp rocks and glass. Better than sandals.

Does this make me some sort of river weirdo, because I'll accept that title.

[–] NotALeatherMuppet@hexbear.net 2 points 1 month ago

The only time I've seen toe shoes in recent memory was on an attendee of a Chapo live show will-fancy

[–] ryepunk@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

That yellow shoe looks good. I haven't bought new shoes in forever. I have some hiking shoes I wear at work, since theyre steel toed with decent grip and don't annihilate my feet after 20,000 steps.

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Sorry folks I'm lib right kitty-cri

I see no entry for olukai sandals. I have to wonder what my preferred footwear says about my political alignment.
