    Just wanted to remind that the purpose of the thread is not to state the obvious (I think we have a pretty good consensus about uggs), but to wonder out loud why you don't like the clothes many other members favor.

            Sorry to further digress but what is it people here dislike about uggs? I am not joking. Aside from the market they cater to and average quality i do not understand what is aesthetically so disgusting about them. I would consider them one of the most promising trends amoung generally trashy people. Just a simple minimalist slip on boot with no bizarre detailing or radical logo, a simple flat sole, not even drastically different interms of shape and silhouette then footwear that has been made by rick, margiela, miharayasuhiro, raf, guidi, etc. could actually easily see rick doing an exact version. and to be honest they suit pants being tucked in better than guidi zips or ccp boots, end up balancing out better. ya i know it is not donkey leather and i am crazy but for the average girl or boy i do not see the problem.

                      something I've noticed with uggs are that either they are so god damn poorly done or people just buy too big uggs, cuz every girl I see wearing them walks with their heel pressed against the side of the back, which makes them walk on the side of the shoe instead of the heel. cruaaaaaazy.

                        I think it's because they don't provide proper structural support, so you always see girls with the soles slipping to one side. I can't abide ill fitting footwear, it is more trouble than it's worth - e.g. I find Chucks uncomfortable as hell so I never wear them, even though I do rather like the look of them.

                        Oh, and anything looks cute on little kids.

                            The key to wearing Chucks is to add proper extra insoles (like Junya did with his collaboration). You'd be suprised how comfortable they'll get.

                              Tried that, but it's the back of the heel I have trouble with. Hard bit of plastic/rubber that just seems to grate and give me blisters I'll stick to Vans for now.
