      I drooled over some Red Wing boots for ages recently but just couldn't justify the price, so end up getting a pair of Dr Martens and a couple of pairs of Clarks. I probably should have just gone for the one pair of Red Wings.

      These are what I wanted:

      Stupidly overpriced. I think they're much cheaper in the US. They used to be cheap here until they became hipster boots.

      I only wear boots or Chuck Taylors - never shoes.

        As far as casual type sneaks go, you can't beat New Balance if you have fat feet like mine.

        I have a pair of their 990s. They were awesome until they got a little older and wet.

        Apparently the glue smells when it gets wet. I Googled it, and boy did a lot of angry posts pop up!

            I've been a fan of Nike's for ages. Especially the cheap ones you can find at walmart. It's not that I was looking for cheap shoes, I was just looking for something that was comfortable.

            Sadly those died.. I'm wearing Champions CGs now - and they are wearing out... and considering I'm going to follow in a few of Scott's footsteps this summer walking around some parts of Europe.. I figure I need a new pair of shoes.. and time to break them in.

            So should I go with a boot thing like Redwings or Dr Martins.. or stick with tennies?

                  daily drivers.... I wear Champion tennis shoes to work and pretty much everywhere. I have dress shoes for the rare time I need them, so I am looking for a replacement for my daily driver.

                  They don't need to be tennis shoes to replace them.. it's not like I'm going out running in them... so a damn comfortable non making my feet hot pair of shoes would be fine too.

                    M DC Pure SE are super comfy and last a long time for me, but I know that style isn't everyone's cup of tea 😉

                      Since I don't wear mens shoes can't help ya. But I know I love Keen's and Art loves the memory foam sketchers.

                      I have pair of KEEN work, hiking shoes.. they are good, well made and thus far have been comfortable.

                                      Craps is ~1% to the house on the pass line, about as best as you can get for straight up random. Play well, and you can take some of that edge off, like betting your hardways on point, making sure to take odds on the back, and diversify your rolls. Avoid the field, don't get suckered into hoppers, and occasionally bet the don't pass.

                                      I make enough playing craps to fund my blackjack runs.

                                        Yeah, some look better than others, I have a pair that seems to be discontinued, but they're black grey and white (can't be anything TOO exciting for work)...

                                          I get away with murder dress code wise. We are required to wear business attire but they also allow flip flops for some reason. First day I wore a suit with flip flops. Come at me HR

                                            I have been wearing DVS for several years. The ones I currently wear should have been retired a year ago but they are mostly comfortable. The ones I got to replace them (another pair of DVS) need to be broken in and I wore them once and didn't get the lacing tight enough so I just stuck with these (instead of just tightening the lacing).

                                            2 weeks ago I was replacing a power steering hose on my STi and dripped some ATF on the top of them. I should just bite the bullet already.
