It's not just about the size either. It's about a lack of selection. I've bought the same shoe 5 times in the span of 1.5 years because they're the only brand to come out with decent colors. I want something that comes out with something sick more than once every few months.

(bit of a shoe fetish. see: image)






Agreed, hence why I was posting on here. Was curious to see if anyone had ever tried anything similar.

My best bet is to find a workshop, I think... dunno where the hell I'd find one of those though, lol.
Wow, each and every one of those shoes are disgustingly ugly.

The inherent issue is that you seem to have a strange fetish for neon-ish dyes..

By the way, if anyone has an old pair of skate shoes they don't wear anymore and wouldn't mind giving them to me for free, that'd be really appreciated!

Interested in taking it apart.

(Not taking apart any of mine, I wear them all. >_> And they're all fairly new. )

I don't see any issue with liking color.

And their shoes are nothing like mine.

Why not try to grab a pair for like $10-15 at a Winners or something... they usually have cheap stuff like that... don't know where you'd find a Winners here though...

Even at Zellers, skate shoes at their lowest are 40 dollars. o_o
(I would know, I used to shop there when I was 11-12 for my skate shoes )

Have you ever considered shopping in the boy's section of a shoe store? Most of my shoes are boy shoes (I'm a boy's size 4), there is some cool shoes there and they're normally cheaper than women's shoes.

Yea, I generally browse all sections. Like I said, if size isn't the issue, then horrible selection is. I'm like, my own niche market. XD

(Problem is, I'm like a size 3 but my foot is so effing fat)
