Do you realize at some point (soon) these literal shits will be giga trendy again? So why are you not anticipating it?

When were the NOT trendy? Every femoid and faggot still wears them.

Those are mere regurgitations of the past. They’ve been out of fashion for 10 years at least.

>>18714006
They have been so prevalent for so long that they are never really in or out of style.

You’re the one stirring up an argument and going all schizo. Saying Chucks are in style or out of style is like saying blue jeans are in or out of style or white t-shirts.

>>18714033
Literally no one is wearing them these days, bro. Literally no one.

>>18714006
they have never gone out of style in over 100 years
they are basically a standard default shoe at this point

>>18714039
No one has been wearing them in the last decade. So, say that again. Say that again, let’s go.

Chuck Taylor's have phases of mass adoption, but the rest of the time they're still being worn by rockers, metal heads, punks, sports normies and they/thems

/fa/ was right, only teens and women wear them.

Does anyone else find chucks incredibly uncomfortable? Basically zero padding and I’ve had the outer sole crack from creasing by the toe box, hell to walk anything more than a half mile in and very awkward to run in at all.

I don’t think anyone buys them for the comfort. I think a lot of people, myself included, like the classic look, especially with the rubber toe cap. If chucks aren’t for you, you can always get adidas superstars like these

>>18714593
yeah, they're the most uncomfy shoe i've worn
now im rocking these, the toebox is a little too narrow

No one wears these shits in Europe. You’re probably an obese amerifat retard, so I can’t tell if other retards like you wear them in the streets over there. But I can assure you that they fell out of fashion at least 10 fucking years ago here in Europe. So once again: no one wears them. If no one wears a thing, that thing is out of fashion, period. Saying they’re like jeans is complete braindead retardation, because jeans have always been worn by everyone and there was never a period where no one used to wear them. Converse are not worn by anyone, since a decade. See, retard? You lost. Make sure to keep seething, coping and dilating. Do it in silence, this time.

Ahahaha fucking pathetic. I'm actually Belgian and I see them everyday on my way to work. Granted there much less common than sambas for the laggards or vans which is up and coming again, but chucks are always there from teens to millennials who never stopped wearing them. But please, do continue to humiliate yourself.

I live in two countries at the same time – Italy and Denmark, dual residency – and I often travel for work – Austria, Germany, Sweden, France, Greece and Switzerland. The last time I saw someone wear these shoes was probably 2016. I also don’t recall seeing anyone wearing them in my last two trips to the USA (2019) and Japan (2024). There are lots of classic shoes from the past you can claim are currently trendy in the West – Docs, Timbs, Paraboot Tyrolean derbies, Reebok Club C, Nike Air, Birkenstocks, Crocs, Red Wing moc toe, heritage service boots, penny loafers, flip-flops – but sure as goddamn hell chucks are not among them.

You’re most probably a braindead retard who lives in some Belgian shithole that lags behind the rest of the world and is somehow stuck in 2005, or a butthurt tranny spitting hate because someone said these shoes are shit, which is exactly what they are.

>he will reply once again, give him one more proof
Sure. Even the fucking mall slop mass chains – Zara, H&M, Uniqlo and so on – have had no trace of these shits in their collections for the entire past decade. But sure as fuck they do sell Tyrolean derbies and fisherman sandals. Woah.

those are the wack ones. chuck 70's are way better. i sold off all my hype sneakers and i rock chucks, loafers and oxfords now. think minimalistic plain black oxfords like guys used to wear in the 50s not some gay ass brown wingtip looking abominations.
daily beater rotation is black chuck 70 highs and purple-hued-indigo chuck 70 lows. the black ones are fake ones from china that have the stark white sole instead of the pre-yellowed one. i think it looks way better on black.

>>18714593
>>18714594
i wear them for the comfort. genuinely. i have very narrow feet and i'm one of those people who finds a firm minimal midsole a lot more comfortable than a thick foam one.
im a martial arts guy and it just feels weird to wear thick foam sole shoes that would impede my stability and ability to kick if i ever had to defend myself again. feels like how i'd imagine gun guys do when they have to go somewhere they can't carry.

>>18714686
they're huge in asia right now.
>>
>>18714593
I buy the wide ones and put insoles in them
>>
>>18715155
west coast usa, regularly travel up and down it. i see chucks somewhat commonly but i've never seen a paraboot in real life before. never seen nike air barely anyone's even wearing jordans anymore. genuinely can't remember the last time i saw a hype jordan in real life probably right after covid. only ever seen one guy who isn't me wearing club c's. never seen another guy except myself wearing red wing mocs or mocs in general. i do see loafers, crocs-and-alikes, birkenstocks, timbs, docs frequently.
>>
They’re the most classic sneaker ever. They never went out of fashion.
>>
>>18715690
iirc it was the best selling shoe globally every single year until jordans came out
>>
>>18715685
>they’re huge in asia right now
They're still worn much less than other European shoes. Anyway, that's exactly what my original post stated: they're coming back into fashion soon. If Asians have recently started wearing them again because of the Y2K revival and other bullshit, that just confirms what I said. Westerners will follow suit, like the idiots they are.
>>
>>18715689
Well that makes sense since they’re the quintessential burger cheap shoes. I can assure you no one wears them anymore in the most developed countries of Europe.

>>18715690
They definitely aren’t “the most classic sneaker ever”. The most classic sneaker ever is the tennis sneaker – white leather or canvas, Reebok Club C style. Chucks are essential 1990s-2000s aesthetic. They are to shoes what skinny low-rise jeans are to pants. Forgotten emo and hip-hop fashion, thank God disappeared from the face of earth wherever people have taste and sense of fashion.

>>18715692
i saw a LOT of jack purcells too. i don't think they will ever catch on in the west again though, because we get the shitty nike version that got extremely nerfed in the late 2000's. im gonna import a pair of japanese jack purcells because my take on fashion trends is when they zig i zag. and i kinda look like kurt cobain so it feels right.

>They definitely aren’t “the most classic sneaker ever”. The most classic sneaker ever is the tennis sneaker – white leather or canvas, Reebok Club C style.
in america chucks were outselling the classic tennis sneaker at its height. by a rather large margin. they were the most popular shoe in america every single year for close to 100 years.

>>18715704
>they were the most popular shoe in america every single year for close to 100 years.
I know. But as the popularity of America and American things in Europe decline, there’s a growing attachment to one’s roots and/or a growing interest or curiosity towards what Asians do. The Japanese, after all, seem to be the biggest imitators of American culture on earth. Currently, no one wears chucks in Europe. I had a friend who owned more than 50 pairs (and this nerdy obsession, in my opinion, also explains the sales figures you cite), but in the last two or three years, she hasn’t bought any more, and I’ve only rarely seen her wear them.
>>
>>18715728
europeans are always way behind the curve. i'm usually 5-10 years ahead of it.
>>
>>18715735
If American popularity declines, Europe is ahead, not behind. You said no one wears Tyrolean derbies or mocs over there. Here, we do. Most of those trends were born here. You guys dress pretty shabbily, to be honest.
>>
>>18715741
most americans do, but the ones who care about fashion dress better than europeans.
>>
>>18715747
It’s much better to be constantly nice and presentable even in casual ways such as Italians, Frenchmen, and Scandinavians do, rather than dress like shit all the time and then putting on some $3000 Armani suit with all the various traditional frills once a year for le “special occasion”.

Shut up you fucking jeet with an irrational hate for converse. I didn't even bother to read your post at first but now that I've glanced at it it's just some pathetic larp. Fucking timbs and red wings in Europe kek. Stop shitting up this board.

>>18715155
in america converse were not trendy for a long period from maybe 2010 to maybe 2022. sometimes girls would wear the white ones. now i would say converse and sambas are overtaking air forces on the zoomzoom kids right now for most popular shoes. and the terrible ugg slippers.

derbies and loafers can be kind of trendy just like workboots were for a while but like 99% of people will just always wear sneakers. dont ask me why its just america.

i'm sorry they dont fit me

idk about converse but i wear similar vans and my right foot pinky toe has fallen off

aren't these just tennis shoes?
didn't Mr Rodgers wear these?
didn't Dr Who wear these under his suit?
they look nice with most outfits. Just don't be an emo poser.
