Fashion Over Comfort? - 07-17-04

Would you wear a pair of shoes that kill your feet even if they're super bad ass? Or an uncomfortable pair of pants simply because they flatter you to no end?

Fashion over comfort, kids. I pick fashion. You?

I'm a comfort guy 99% of the time. If its a special evening out with Anarane, then I'm going to try and look my best, even if its at the expense of comfort.

I try to devise an outfit that is comfortable,and stylish.When I look good,it makes me feel good.Or to hear "he's a nice dresser". But I gotta stay true to myself,and be comfortable at the same time.In the end, I wear clothes because nakedness is currently socially frowned upon.

I once had these shoes. Black patent leather platforms. Their original purchase price was $300. The store I got them from had them on sale for $87. (it's a store that has a sale once every 2 years. And then it's a hellatious sale.) Anyway.... They only had one pair left. In a size 8. I wear a size 9. I fell in love with them, couldn't pass them up, etc.

I wear those fuckers to this day. Suffer for a few hours. But look bad ass.

What I like to call my "ouch" shoes:

I usually would say fashion over comfort (unless I REALLY need to be comfortable)......I usually try to get both if I can though.

...I can deal with a little pain if it makes me look sexy. I don't think shoes do much for guys though, so I don't see the point there.....I have one rawking pair of boots though, and they're far from comfortable.

Dookie, you're like the male version of me. Only with the Jesus/wife thing.

What boots? Lemme see.

I choose comfort 100 percent of the time for clothing, and about 75 percent of the time for jewelry. Luckly I happen to find dress slacks and tuxedos comfortable to bad I can't wear them every day.

Comfort any day. Fashion is only slightly important to me. I don't own any dress shoes (unless boots count, then in that case I own a shit load), or uncomfortable pants (I own them, but don't wear them), or uber tight tops I cant breath in. I'd rather feel good all day.

I guess it depends. Its not hard with me, if I have to dress up its just a long floppy black skirt and a nice top with my boots, I look nice and feel comfy.

I go for fashion, do u know when u buy a pair of shoes and wen u try them in the shop they are grand but when u actatly walk with them they cut the fuck out of your feet, yet u still go back and put them on again cos they go with what ur weraing, well u put them on again after ur feet have healed and the limp isn't to noticeable anymore

Marilyn Monroe said it best when she said, "a real lady never complains about how her feet hurt." (or something like that)

I'll go for fashion anyday. Even if I ain't doing anything special I make a point of wearing clean, pressed clothes that match and some jewellery or whatever.
Because, you never know when you're going to run into either someone you know or someone you want to know and, when that happens, you don't want to be wearing some ratty old tee and ripped jeans.

But I always wear some ratty old tee and ripped jeans (well, most of them are ripped anyway, I have a habit of falling of fences and tearing them) so if I were to run into someone, I would want to be wear that. And people who wear shoes that cut them need to be beaten with them.

The just right click on properties, save the link, and post it inside [img] tags.

And DriWicked, I wear uncomfortable shoes. It's important to me to look good. I'd suffer for a great pair of shoes any day. Should I be beaten to death just because I want to look nice?

It's fun knowing that my feet look awesome.

And no one ever has to know how badly I want to chop them off at the end of the night.
