yeah I had my first classics for about 3 years and I bought them used
if you aren't afraid of air pockets
the Nike 92 tailwind is wicked comfy comes in a ton of colors and has an elastic tongue so they feel locked down without having to tie them

I think the Reeboks have cleaned lines, but I'm open to all suggestions. I'll take a look at all of 'em.

yeah the tailwind is kindof 1992s version of what they thought the future would look like
a little chunky in the heel which I like because I like pants with a wider bottom (not ridiculous just near a boot cut)
I think people that wear jeans with a better taper are more likely to pull off all the cool boots in this thread

I bought a pair of these Kuru Aalto Chukkas:
Super comfortable, but they weren't kidding when they said those crepe soles really pick up dirt. They got filthy first time I wore 'em.
Also, the only pair of shoes that I absolutely NEEDED to use a shoe horn to put on and take off.

I lame'd out and bought a pair of Saucony Jazz in this same exact colorway.
Don't worry, sneaker freaks, I'll get different sneakers sometime soon. I just needed something right away. My old dogs were tired.

Thanks, hbomb. Yeah, these Jazz're sweet. I just need something a little different for a change. They'll always be an old standby.

Chanks dude, that era of jazz was one of the first sneakers I ever really was hanging out for. I'd totally wear them. Hbomb, don't even get me started on your shoe collection. As has been stated before, it is scientifically probably that we are the same person.
And just cos everyone has shown so much taste and restraint... I'm bummed I didn't grab a pair of these when they were RI'd.
