We should get @mbow to slash his tires while he’s there

I’m sorta shocked to hear this. Last year at this time, a client gave me a Hoka gift certificate, so I ordered two pairs for street hockey and wore out the first pair and onto the second pair recently. I read all this stuff about what a great performance shoe they are blah blah blah. But they kinda suck. They don’t feel great and I think they perform worse. Back to Nike once I wear out this second pair.

If you didn't get the Clifton or Bondi then yeah... They aren't going to be amazingly comfortable. I got a pair of the Clifton 9 and they are amazing. I also got a pair of the Gore-Tex trail shoes and they are relatively comfortable.... Nothing like the Cliftons though.

I got mine strictly for running and performance at street hockey, but I don’t feel they’re very good at all for that. Maybe for light jogging. But not sprinting and stopping and turning on a dime. The first pair was especially terrible. I don’t even know the style names.

Serious question....what are sandals good for other than showing your nasty ass toes to the world?

why would you willingly wear socks?

 

[worm]

for the same reason nobody on tv/movies says goodbye on telephones -- they just hang up

screen time is to valuable for such niceties

I know why but it still bothers me

 

[Wayward DP]

Everyone have house shoes? Not slippers Im talking shoes strictly for indoor use.

yeah, my slippers!

 

[MindzEye]

why would you willingly wear socks?

Breathable layer that helps avoid blisters....win win

 

[Wayward DP]

Socks are for dress shoes. Period.

and winter, but yeah

 

[Wayward DP]

I'm barefoot outside currently. Anyone else?

it's minus 6 here. so I have my merino blend socks on.

 

[MindzEye]

I never say good-bye on the phone. See you later or talk to you later, something like that.

Good-bye just seems to final to me.

Fucking sociopaths

 

[Wayward DP]

I have to say, in LA it’s common. And I don’t feel right telling people to take their shoes off at my place, as much as I don’t like it.

There’s no carpet in LA anymore, so I think that’s mainly the reason why people feel like they should have shoes on when walking on floors. But I come home and immediately take them off.

man as soon as I get in someone's house, shoes come off automatically. dunno that I'll ever shake that habit.

I mean they're always gonna be less breathable than... just not wearing socks.

and blisters are only for pussy feet, anyways

Yeah... I'm strictly talking about a walking shoe for being on your feel all day. I can't speak for any other shoe.

 

[Habspatrol]

I'm always bothered by TV and movies were the assholes don't take their shoes off when entering a house.

Growing up in Canada I always found that so unrealistic. Seriously though... In the States a lot of people don't take their shoes off in the house.

I'm proud of you that you can stop your car with your feet, but being a fucking Flintstone is nothing to brag about.

Animals...

 

[JackBurton]

What if you have doody on your shoes?

 

[MindzEye]

Good shoes? Nah.

 

[Artnes]

Outdoor shoes is a no go. But if you have designated indoor shoes then there is no concern. Your nasty ass socks are probably dirtier
