finally, a sane person!
not dissing you people that are fanatical about shoes because you find them exciting....each to their own and all that.
but, being kind to people will get you more respect and friends than any shoes will.
like i said, when you're dead, nobody is going to give two shits about your footwear. (unless you're a complete tnuc and your shoes are the only nice thing about you)

Ive had more than one woman tell me that one of the first things they notice about a man is his shoes. Your shoes can tell a person alot about you. That being said, its not necessarily that beatup shoes = loser, but there definatly is a correlation.

well, some of the soundest, most intelligent people i know don't give a fuck about their shoes or appearance in general.
just because the masses conform to this consumerist church of the shoe, doesn't mean everyone is stupid enough to take footwear seriously.
to be honest, most (not quite all though) people that i know who take their appearance seriously are fake little bitches who have more respect for a pair of nikes than they do their own mother.
and if your woman is judging you by your shoes, she ain't worth the hassle.
.....the in depth shoe-debate continues.....

You may be on point in a lot of what you are saying £10 bag, but unfortunately for the wearers of shitty shoes, kidlogic is right in terms of women looking at your shoes and making an initial impression (obviously that is not all women by any means).

hopefully we can all agree that sandals = weirdo/gypsy unless you're at the beach
sandals + socks = weirdo/gypsy no matter where you are

The first bimbo that tries to mortgage my character on the quality of my shoes is getting a rohypnol in her appletini.
In communist Mongolia they all wore the same shoes, no joke. People must have had a really hard time deciding who to fuck.

a lot of people will take a lot of notice of your shoes. the question is whether you care about what those particular people think.

exactly. it's actually quite disgusting the way a lot of women (and i'm not saying this is just women) properly look you up and down, then usually scowl at you, before they deign to say anything to you

Yeah women are shitpiles
Crocs exist to enable us to know who is a complete arsehole at 500 paces. They're a socially important tool.

Look, Im not saying I agree, Im just saying its how it is. More people than you may think are judging you on you shoes/apperance. Care about it or not, Im just repeating what Ive been told.
Most people judge others on outwardly apperance at first glance whether you realize it or not. Shoes and overall appearance come into play on a daily basis. If you ride the bus/tube Im sure you pick where you're gonna sit based on similar criteria. Its human nature to assess the situation as well as possible based on all available feedback and make a decision. Most women decide if you are gonna have a chance with them with their first glance. Even the most intelligent people make snap decisions based on looks.
Im not necesarilly talking onlyl about people who need to spend $200 dollars on the newest pair of Nike Dunks as soon as they hit the store either, but our society is based on appearance and if you dont think so you're fooling yourself. Even if the rules dont make sense, its good to know them so you can play the game properly.

Im sure in communist Mongolia they had a different deciding factor when making that decision.
Besides, its 2008 in the consumer driven US/UK, things are a bit different now.

Best thing to do if you've got shit shoes is walk around with your dick out so the first thing a woman notices about you isn't your shoes, but your grotesquely blubbery bell end.
