Remember these? Practically identical to a pair I wore from 8th grade up until 11th grade when they got eaten by a friend's Labrador. They literally stretched as I grew, second most comfortable pair of shoes I ever owned.

Most everything nowadays seems inferior in design and construction.

I miss genuine high tops (Ruk brand was the best), genuine motorcycle boots (used to be able to get em for about 20-30 bucks at Sears and they were solid and would take years of abuse), and just something comfortable (every tennis shoe I've tried in last 15 years feel horrible, have to add inserts).

ever tried red-wing lace-ups? I had a pair a few years ago super comfy.

Yes, had a pair bought when Red Wing sent a sales truck to a job site years ago. I couldn't get used to them. Love my Belleville's, though. Comfy but tough as a tax collector.

But what happens when Aqualung gets to the part of his group session where he grabs hands and looks longingly in to their eyes. The costume doesn't appear to have eye holes?

I wore these all through Jr High until I came to the church.
Now I wear Oxfords, Cowboy, and Wellingtons.

Weightlifting shoes are Nike Shox
