((Exactly.

I've been told that Nike wants to release shoes similar to what was in BttF2. I think its silly.))

((To be fair, they still look better than most of the other shoes I have seen that company release. gonk ))

((I've looked at shoes, but can't remember what they've been putting out. Haven't paid that much attention. But if they are those shoes that are all kinds of colors those are pretty ugly.))

((I know, right? Nike has some good patterns still on the market, but most of them look like they were exposed to an exploding paint factory.))

((Exactly. It made shoe shopping difficult when I needed new running shoes. Everything looked awful. So many shoes had the crazy color schemes. While I don't really pay attention to shoes, I can't exactly recall ever seeing anyone wearing shoes like them. So I wonder if they sell well among teens? But if that is the fad/style for kids these days it makes me think it will be one of those things their kids will look back on and go "you wore those?"

... *feels so old*))

((Aging sucks. And you should have better luck checking the competition. Aside for Nike having too many fugly styles, I believe that they are generally overpriced for the quality you get.))

((Yeah, I found a decent shoe with white and blue colors that fit wonderfully. Without that annoying gel that some companies use. Those just harden after a while and your shoes crack and crunch when you walk. I hate that. Perfectly good shoe otherwise, but you have to replace it because you make annoying sounds with every step.))

((That gel only works if it is part of a separately bought insert, imo. Even without the noises, the extra decay is not appreciated when it is a part of the shoe itself.))

((The ones built right into the shoe feel deliberate in trying to make you buy a new shoe as soon as possible. Unless you like the sound of cracking wherever you go. I always make sure to avoid those sorts of shoes.

I wish shoe shopping wasn't so frustrating. >_>; ))

((Good luck finding that chain you actually have a decent time checking within. Some local outdoor stores actually have more normal shoes instead of the street clown look, so I've given up on ever again trying the strip mall.))

((I did find a decent shoe with some white, blue and silver at Kohls. But I consider that luck finding something good. Shoe shopping is hard no matter where you go because they stock based on the fashion, and I usually dislike the current fad. If I have the money I usually buy try to buy two at once since finding a new shoe is so difficult.
The places like Road Runner Sports that make specialized and customized shoes are so nutty in price. @_@ ))

((Custom footware is always expensive, which is why I avoid it. The mass-produced shoes work well enough for my needs, without costing a small fortune in comparison.))

((Yeah. I just wish I could get something custom one day. But certainly not at this point in my life. Finding shoes that fit, that look good, and are designed in a way that feels good is so hard to locate. Been that way all my life. But if I hate shopping for athletic shoes, I despise shopping for formal/dress shoes. Men have it easy. emotion_donotwant ))

((... True. You'd have a hard enough time getting me in low platform shoes, let alone the evil torture that is heels. Whoever came up with that "beauty enhancement" must have privately hated women.))
