Sneaker culture has completely changed the footwear industry they bite our culture heavy now.

Not quite, my man. Margiela Mids.

They dont even try to conceal it anymore.

I'm still trying to find a pair of GATs on sale in my size. I check yoox weekly.
Do you know what the numbers mean on there? Like that have MMM 11, MMM 12, MMM14, MMM 22.

The numbers correspond to the kind of clothes/shoes. For example: perfume/cologne would be 3, sneakers would be 22, etc.

EDIT: Better and more precise explanation

How do you guys feel about Shawls? Been thinking of grabbing one, but not sure if I should order from topman or river island. Just need a basic navy joint

Great pictures indeed. Thanks for sharing. At first, I read your SN as Lao Native, not LA

I did my routine and visited some stores. I was talking about using Nikes into a new aesthetic a week or so ago and how I regretted getting rid of most of my Nikes and Jordans. This is an outfit I would wear, except I would double cuff the jeans for a smaller cuff width.

What are work shoes? Are you just looking for bluchers (casual shoes) or balmorals (dress shoes)? What is your price budget?

 

[cardboardbox]

Loving these AE boots. Does AE usually do a black friday sale?

It's just black kids on a Sunday nobody dressed up daily except folks with businesses ,criminals and other stuff trust me I got fam who lived in those eras and got pics they ain't dress up everyday,

Photo was taken around the corner from my place. Click the link for the full story.
Russell Lee: Negro boys on Easter morning. Southside, Chicago, Illinois. 1941.

adidas BW Army is good pair that you'll find at a reasonable price. adidas supplied the German army with them in the 70s. They're fairly simple. They come in a mid and a low version. You'll probably be able to find some older pairs on eBay.

Picked these up in 06. 500 pairs were made from surplus German Army uniform material and no two pair were alike.

Picked up these Cole Haan's the other day.

Casual but can be dressed up. Around $150 or less.
Durability is my main concern. Dont know if that is possible at this price point.

I would visit the local Nordstrom Rack and check out Cole Haan. I would also check out the 1901 line at Nordstrom. I had a pair years ago, very light and comfortable. Durability is a broad term. If you walk a lot while working, they're obviously going to wear down sooner than later.
