    I can find NIKE LDV Vintage anywhere.

    I got may hands on one pair a while ago. They were in a cardboard box in the back of a "Street Clothing" Boutique in the Newport Mall NJ.




    Im lookin to get my White Shadow ON.

    they look better when the "vintage yellowing" has been scrubbed off around the mid soles

    They look better when you wear 'em with short ass jogging shorts. Please tuck the nuts in, though.

    $500 earthtone moccasins


    i never liked those jordans though. in fact, when you look at mj's current off-the-court style, it's amazing that he was involved in some of basketball fashion's greatest hits. say what you will about lebron, but the dude has a lot of style off the court, so do a lot of the current nba guys including d wade. all you need to do is compare what these guys are wearing to the nba draft. it's like night and day compared to early 2000s, 90s era guys.

    While this is another thread, I feel like alot of these dudes have styles that are given to them by stylists vs enhancing an instinctive style. The whole dandy nerd thing is crazy fake and comes off more costumish than fly.
    Whereas some off the other dudes have a less cookie cutter flamboyancy that more understated w/ a Southern Gentleman's/Uptown Cool.

    haha, very true, but a costumish Andre 3000 wannabe still beats the Jalen Rose on draft night look. i wouldn't call any of these guys trendsetters like a Walt Frazier, but as someone who wears a suit to work everyday, it's cool to see 20 y/o nba players looking so sharp. as much as i love allen iverson, and appreciate how he completely changed the rules for on-the-court nba fashion, i'm glad the oversized jerseys and fitted hat look is out. btw, it's the trend in all professional sports, not just the nba...although i'd guess that the nba players are the most fashionable (nhl is last i'm sure).

    I would say the NBA "Trend" comes after Hip Hop cats started getting suited, despite the NBA suit history.
    Many of those athletes were country bumpkins still rockin braids and shit while Hip Hop's "elite" were already suited and tailored. I think that really upped the ante along w/ Stern enforcing the new dress code.

    look, just be happy that someone working in a lab would give more than two seconds of thought about what they are wearing.

    I keep seeing those Originals around, but I've never been able to get with that Stan-Smith-style dolphin-snout profile.

    Yeah, kinda ugly, but minimal as in 3mm drop and very thin soles. Think walking barefoot.
    Desert boots are stale as fish, that style is as old as shoes. C'mon.

    I agree the desert boots are classic and we have all already seen them. No reason to post OG or knock off desert boot designs proclaiming that it's what real men wear and sneakers are ugly.

    Herm has already infested the ladies' footwear thread with the desert bootness, no need to spread it everwhere:
