What an unbelievable idiot
Reel it in, its just a pair of shoes, people will do what they want. Of course people are gonna try and sand the brand new pairs if they can't skate or just want Royals/Breds. Did you expect any different with these? You gonna be mad at skaters who skate their brand new kicks? Let people customize how they like and if they ruin em, so what. People idolize shoes these days like they AREN'T something we wear on our feet for the purpose protecting us (thus destroying the shoes).
Absolutely. What would you do? These shoes are MEANT to have the paint removed, either by skating, nail polish remover, sand paper, knife, paperclip, whatever. So I did.
I get that, but why does everyone care so much? It's one thing to laugh at the dude that sanded his into oblivion, it's a whole other thing to get butt hurt about it. Comments like "what an unbelievable idiot," make me think people take this stuff WAY too seriously.
OR any of the other methods mentioned. Who is anyone in this thread to say what the right or wrong way to do something is? If you can't skate, I'm not gonna hate on you, but you're gonna have to use a chemical or sand paper (or something else like that). It is what it is. People going too crazy over a pair of shoes just because they don't have them/care about their pair way too much/got things twisted.
Not really... it's everyone else that is. I'm just pointing out the fact that everyone's taking it too seriously. I don't know how that turns into me being the one taking it too seriously.
I'm perfectly calm. I scraped mine off.geez calm down it was just a question. didnt meant to rustle your jimmies
You're right about that. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Just a sad way to live getting all distressed over what other people did to their shoes. When I hear complaints about how some person skated in their tiff lows, I wonder what they thought the shoes were made for. It is what it is, there will always be people who think like that and I can't tell them otherwise, just saying people need to step back and think about what they're going crazy over. It's just rubber and leather when you break it down.
I really like the concept of the LM's and how the outer paint gets scraped off with wear and tear, but I personally love the CS's more. Although I was aiming for the black pair of LM's, I ended up getting the whites instead. But I'm not complaining at all, just happy I was fortunate to even get a pair at retail. Overall, I think I'm more likely to wear the CS's more than the LM's.
That's cool, homie. The only person I need to like my shoes is me. Could care less if the rest of the world thinks it is terrible (not even mentioning the lace swap!). I got my priorities straight, and I also don't generalize my personal opinion to "majority would agree". I ain't about that egocentric life.
