What is a hipster? Look at this fucking hipster...

they are now going to be "double pram pushing boots"

I'll be getting one of those man strap things, one at the front, one on the back!

Alas my fashion sense is still guide my my late 80's skateboarding aspirations

Manstrap
One at the front
One on the back

And I like the Pet Shop Boys, Bronski Beat and Frankie Goes to Hollywood

What of it?!

can we all agree that we're all dirty hipsters?

Like... what are you saying then?

I think he was calling the one on the left a twat.

I have a pair of these, so I suppose that makes me a tragic hipster, but they're ridiculously comfortable so I could give not one fuck...

Do you own a boat though?

No, sorry. I am going boating in september though, collarbone permitting.

Hmmm. I think that might make it okay in PistiLand but the rules are arbitary.

ironically, they're a bit shit on a boat- i've found.
when they're wet they ain't so comfy, and they're a little slippy.
and they stink.

but they are comfy on dry land.

Oh don't be silly, I shan't wear them at sea! The salt water will ruin the delightfully soft leather.

I think it's about time we changed our avatars Henry.

Is that an MJ glove in his top pocket? s'badatcheckdacone. shuffles

If that guy^ (quoted there) is stylish, I wanna be a slob.

Don't worry...

I used to have some awesome Nike Airs! They were white with flourescent yellow details and a bit of black suede with the logo sewn into it. They were my first proper brand name trainers, I broke them in on a family holiday.

I'm too old for trainers now though.

how old are you

I saw a Granny in Onitsuka Tiger's the other day.

Respekt.

Then I saw a retired guy wearing a GioGoi jacket.

I saw an old guy with Adidas shell-toes on last week. Looked awesome, and I couldn't help but think of him listening to Run DMC of an evening.

how old are you

30

I too just laughed out loud at the Moon Boot. Also at the "my name is Raul and I will sell you crack" comment.

Excellent tonic for being run over.

The thing about deck/boat/dock shoes now being in fashion but also being worn by Rah Sloanies, is rather a case of a broken clock being right twice a day. Sloanes have worn the same crap for thirty years.

Dock shoe you say?

Slippery you say?

Too old you say?

I give you the 'ZX Boat'
