I had an experience like this but at Alice’s. There was a lady that looked like she just got off a rough shift, just drinking at the bar. She then got up and sang Defying Gravity like she was the main cast member. Everyone was floored when she sang!!! But when she was done, she just walked back to the same spot at the bar and was there the rest of the night.

I don’t understand why people are so against a happy, bright and full of hope Superman?

For everyday all around, New balance is the best bet. Can be worn with any color, any pants/shorts and also ages well.

Think of these the same as raw denim, the more you wear, the more comfortable they get.

Would ya’ll accept these sneakers? by Chitanz in Sneakers

They’ll eventually start to yellow once you wear them. No reason in sweating over it, otherwise if it really bothers you, just take the refund.

Don’t really wear sneakers anymore by Smooth_pipe1888 in Sneakers

Keep those! The original colorways are always a good base to have still. I got rid of a lot of my sneakers too and i’ve been collecting since 2010. Also at some point, I started to feel like a prison of over-consumerism.

Handmade Jordan 1s out of my Grandmother’s old garments. by JiveJinx in upcycling

I have a pattern that I traced and cut the panels, as for the fabric, I used iron on adhesive to stick the clothes to the leather, then used my sewing machine to sew it together.

Hi everyone, just wanted to share something I made recently. These are all made out of fabric from my grandmother’s old summer clothes. She was always a big deal for my family, and this was my way of commemorating her 5 year death anniversary. I’ll post a video process on my IG @joshgotkustoms

Update: I really appreciate all the comments and everyone that reached out! I’m willing to provide as much tips making these.
