I got an MPC Touch



As new condition, for less than half the retail value (£225 compared to £479 new).

I don't have a clue what I'm doing but I'm going to have fun finding out.

I noticed that all the shoe posts are just pictures without bothering to say who makes them or what the model is, also no links to where to buy them. It's just a big screw you to people that can't tell what they are by sight.

But if links were added you might accidentally click one and buy an ugly pair of shoes.

I hope the stretchy shoe thing really sticks around. I bought a pair of flyknits last summer and they are the most comfortable shoe ever.

The only pair of shoes I'd really go nuts for are the Ultraboosts in triple white except they ended up being a sneakerhead favorite and so now they're all impossible to find for anything approaching retail (which was already $180).

Yeah the combination of primeknit upper and boost soles on the pair I posted is so insanely comfortable.

Before shipping the Yeezy's out, I tried one shoe on, just stood in it on a towel, and the full length Boost seemed okay but not any better than Nike Zoom Air. Is that just me?

All I buy are Oxfords, because, after a day of work, my feet felt the same in those as they did athletic shoes.

Plus they're fun to shine. I like how they look and feel and I love the sound they make as I walk. Love me a crisp heel strike.

For content, it's been really nice the past couple days, so bought steaks for grilling tonight. It's been an incredibly rainy spring.

Yep, Vans are loving fantastic. My first pair of skate shoes back in the 80's. I own like 7 pairs right now of different colors. Lately I've been buying up various Nike SB Pro Models. I don't skate anymore, old and broke, but drat if they aren't some comfortable loving shoes.

Edit: I might have a shoe problem.

I own 5 pairs of just Chucks right now:

* All Star 70 black & white hi-tops

* Monochrome black hi-tops with white laces (to make them resemble the 1940s shoes)

* New oxfords in the seasonal sharksin colorway

* Blue oxfords made in America in the 1990s

* Obsidian gumsole Chuck Taylor 2s.

Plus there's my green SeaVees Army Issue Nylon, my white Made in USA PF Flyers, my Hoka One One Bondi 4 running shoes, and my Adidas Stan Smiths (original white and green). Plus two pairs of boots and a pair of cheap dress shoes, and the red Keds Champions I bought yesterday.

Here's an Amazon link, I got mine from a vendor rewards program but this is the model. It's available in several different interior colors, obviously.

Also, the Johnston & Murphy shoes are Conard cap toe, Conard plain toe and the Allen Edmonds' are the Del Ray.

The Made in USA line is great. Pigskin lining on the inside, durable canvas on the outside, both sides' stitching covered by leather, and a comfortable insole. Just wear thick socks because there's a little ribbon or something on the inner wall of the shoe that rubs against your foot.
