I am not someone who cares too much about what other people are wearing, but I can't help to notice if it is something expensive.

Definitely, that’s also why a lot of the newer places do business casual dress code. People wanna be more comfortable while they’re workingI just think people dont feel like wearing suits or business formal wear as much anymore. Seems like professionals rather throw on a pair of air maxes then some wingtips
At what age do you stop caring about what others are wearing?
This.I am not someone who cares too much about what other people are wearing, but I can't help to notice if it is something expensive.
At what age do you stop following trends/hype? Saw this dude at least 60+ years old rocking Gucci sneakers, an Off-White shirt, and some tight jeans. Looked so awkward.
This.
Wouldn't say I care what anyone wears, but I do notice.
People could be walking around nude and I wouldn't care, but I will definitely make note.
Just saying the guy I saw today looked odd is all.
What Your Pastor’s Sneakers Say About Their Theology

Preachers N Sneakers Instagram account that documents the world of sneaker-head pastors and their affinity for expensive kicks.
It’s a fun feed to browse, but it leaves many important questions unaddressed, most significantly, What does my pastor’s shoes say about their theology?

Thankfully, we’re here to help. Here are the ways that you can determine the theological leanings of a preacher (with about 94% accuracy) based only on their choice of footwear.
Air Jordan 1s

Seen on everyone from Miles Morales and Michael Jordan in 1985 to Steven Furtick, these timeless favorites have barely changed since they debuted more than 30 years ago. In other words, they signal old school theology: fundamentalist-leaning teachings wrapped in an ever-so-slightly updated delivery.

The ultimate dad shoe—perfect for cutting the grass, wearing with a polo tucked into jeans or on the foot of Matt Chandler. These are perfect for preachers favoring sensible, no-nonsense Reformed sermons.
Yeezys

Be on the lookout for these on the foot of the recently promoted youth pastor who might have started off with traditional theology, but has begun dabbling in Richard Rohr podcasts.
Crocs

Heretic. Stay away.
Jesus Sandals

Typically only seen on the feet of praise band bass players, these are also a favorite of bearded preachers who like to talk about the “cosmic Christ” and are always guessing what Enneagram number you are.
Off-White Nikes

Nothing says “prosperity gospel” like donning these exclusive, high-dollar streetwear staples. Name it, claim it and remember never to take that red tag off so people know they are the real thing.
Those Weird Sneaker/Dress Shoe Things

Heretic, duh.
Fancy Cowboy Boots

Typically accompanying slightly bedazzled, brightly colored suits (and for the men, possibly a bolo tie of some sort), these are part of the faith-healing, tent revivalist, washed-up televangelist uniform.
Chuck Taylors

If a preacher is wearing these, it means their theology hasn’t evolved since the early 2000s when they last went to Cornerstone and were super into Blue Like Jazz.
Gucci Shoes

Theologically, these high-end kicks mean the pastor is into self-help oriented sermons about feeling good, “doing life” together, “embracing the mess” and spending your time and money on things that will ultimately make you happy — like $620 Gucci shoes.
****, back in MY day, you either saw the fight or you didn't. The end.
I'm so thankful that we didnt have camera phones when I went to HS.
I couldn’t imagine having to get in a fight NOW in HS.
In my day, you’d have 1, maybe a couple others at most recording it.
If you got washed, at worst, if they aren’t lazy, they’d upload it to YouTube and a ton of people at your school and maybe same city H schools would see it.
NOW though, you got everyone and their mama with phones out like it’s for the WBC heavyweight championship at MSG. And the **** is getting uploaded instantly and simultaneously within seconds in HD for potentially thousands and millions to see depending on the recorders following and how bad the washing is.
****, back in MY day, you either saw the fight or you didn't. The end.
All of this, just knowing myself if I was in middle school or early high school now I end up getting expelled at least because I couldn't live with myself knowing theirs a recording of me getting my *** whipped. Im throwing down with everybody involved till someone leaves the countryI'm so thankful that we didnt have camera phones when I went to HS.
Did Ash ever show up?Caught Detective Pikachu last night, it was actually decent.
Ding ding ding. Looking at men but he should be looking at women.At what age do you stop caring about what others are wearing?
