Alot of suburban emo/scene/hipster kids wear them now-a-days but as long as you aren't wearing a bunch of lame clothes with them, you should be alright.

yeah they've been emo since 2004 sadly, its interesting how shoes have been branded so much in hip hop, first shelltop adidas, air force 1's, and chucks were marketed like crazy by snoop dogg, but now they've decided to market it with emo instead. i prefer nike cortez, i've worn nothing but those for the last 4 years. if it helps they're all made by child labour in poor countries anyway

i always wear chucks because they are flexible even though they get quickly tarnished its not a problem i personally can't street fight whit Jordan's or other kind of shoes so i stick whit chicks . Chucks got really popular whit the pop-punk/emo scene but chucks were and are popular within urban street gangs on the west coast of the US. So you can't really believe that bullshit just be you don't follow hearsay and trend rumors go whit what you actually like .

Everything is made in sweetshop condition these days its globalization what we should do ? run around naked ? what are the alternatives ? sweatshop free clothes ? oh yeah i believe Nike when they say that LOL . I think this bleeding heart mentality of certain activists is very self conscious and naive. If these bleeding heart liberals would care about 3rd world countries and labor laws they wouldn't sit all day on their asses bitching about wearing Nike's and all that crap they would be at the forefront of the workers movement in these countries they would be there unionizing the workers at these companies , agitating and igniting general strikes etc. Those workers are not harmed by you buying Nike's or whatever they are harmed because labor laws are not respected there so commercial boycott is just bleeding heart liberal bullshit working conditions are won trough working class initiatives and LABOR STRUGGLES not trough simple solutions like not buying shit this shows this western mentality , like i won't buy that its made in sweetshop but they actually won't do nothing for those people they don't buy from them so they can't have a guilty conscience . So it doesn't really do shit for us its whatever.

You don't beleive me? Dude I can give you plenty examples of why jordans are wack. Most important one though is that they are a fucking gimmick new damn shoe every day. You know when I was wearing jordans like in middle school I was buying $200 jordans and $150 jordans every fucking year, sometimes even half a year. Its ridiculous nikes are only 90-95 bucks period. None of that bullshit air jordan 1 or 2 or 3 or w/e the fuck you want to name them. They are still a shoe worth about 3 bucks to make. And I still wear my nikes since 2007. Also I know air force's come out with a new shoe every season or so, but they aren't above $100 dollars and there isn't this unspoken necessity to buy them amongst your peers. Nikes are classic and don't need to be renewed every month.
