For me, it's:

1. Converse All Star - A classic. Even though every Joe Shmow wheres them, they have good reason to. They have comfort, durability, they are cheap (I'm poor ;;), and have a nice old school style to it.

2. Nike Air Force Ones - These just look really cool XD

3. Phat Farm Rev 1's - Comfortable, cheap show. They look alright, and they also have some pretty good durability.

Any that fit. It is rather difficult to locate decent size 15 shoes (or size 16 in reeboks /boggle). Nike's tend to fit best, and dress shoe finding is next to impossible.

Refrigiwear boots. Steel toes, comfortable to -20, good ankle support. All that noted, for some reason, they're just damned comfortable.

I'm partial to my airwalks and vans, but most of the store around here stopped selling them so I went to New Balance.. and damn these things are comfortable.

What are you, like 9 feet tall?

It's a pain in the *** to find 12 1/2 anywhere, not to mention that a Converse 13 fits perfectly sometimes and sometimes it's way too big. Apparently half sizes aren't made much bigger than 11 1/2.

Nothing beats my set of Doc Martins. I've had them for like 10 years. They are so comfortable!

My Sketchers brown boots. They are comfortable as hell, and I've had them for like 4 years now. Plus, I can wear them with pretty much anything.

Whoa! I used to work in northern Alaska! I remember these! The ones with the valve on the side? Yeah, they were pretty comfortable, weren't they?

Now, (in Santa Barbara, no longer Alaska) I simply prefer a good pair of Teva flip-flops.

No valves, just straight insulation without inflation. :)

OK - I guess the boots I had weren't Refridgerware (although my outerware was - still have it). Our boots were white (we called them bunny boots) and were good to - shoot, my feet never got cold and we routinely worked outside on the frozen ocean in 40 below. The boots were air-insulated - the valves were for pressure-equalization during shipping. Very thick soles, if I recall, as well.

Still prefer flip-flops... (used to call them thongs, but my daughter cured me of that).

Yeah, I'm familiar with the boots. I had a pair during my stint in Alaska. I was just clarifying wjhat I have.

Refrigiwear seems to discontinue and add new model #s pretty often even though the actual products usually appear to be similar. I guess they're always striving to make better stuff and the new items have different insulations or somesuch.

The boot model I'm wearing (#128S) is only about a year old or so. I hope it will still be around when this pair wears out. Even the soles have withstood exceptional wear. I've been walking around in these for around 9 months and the writing on the interior soles isn't even faded. Normally, I wear out the area at the front of the foot on the interior side pretty fast, no more than 3 months.

Es
Emerica
Nike Dunks

I have the Es Accels in like a muave atm, my last ones were the Es Tom Penny in a brown. They were awsome. The original reynolds were awsome. Them Barleys are pretty nice too, any one who skates knows what I mean.

Ofcourse Vans are good and comfy.
But New Balance is some good **** too.

I usually dont give a **** on what shoes I wear though, and unless on something sharp or hot, barefoot is the way to be!

New Balance and Asics are both nice, I have a pair of each currently. I have had good luck with Puma in the past, hard to find sometimes though. My favs for non work days are some Nevados slip ons I bought for like 10 bucks, fit decently, comfy and easy to get into.

Right now im looking for a size 13 shoe that has velcro straps thats my dream shoe.

Right now im sporting a pair of standard Cat shoes.

http://www.shoebuy.com/sb/s.jsp/br_Caterpillar/b_2-0.82907-94.73858/p_2/st_35634

They are okay, just went for them because after going to 6 different shoe stores they were the first pair of 13's that i found. They are okay, not the best pair ive ever had. My Doc Martins that lasted me 4 years were my boots of choice.

For tennies I used to prefer Nike, but can't find a damn high top anywhere. I have bad ankles and really need that support. So I am wearing, um Starter, I think. I found them in the boys department of all places. It was so funny at the park the other day this little girl says, "Hey my dad has a pair like that!" ROFL

For boots I used to wear Dexter black leather/suede hiking boots, now I am in Sketchers.

I also don the occasional high heel as well. Smiley: wink2

About the vans... they are alright. The original Rowleys and the Grecos were the only good ones that I liked cosmeticly/comfertably. I tore through my vans so fast. I had a huge *** tear in the sole in a week(I skate btw). Considering it took me over 3 weeks to tear through my tom pennys, I now know to have 2 pairs of shoes. Walking shoes, skate shoes.
