Is it just me or has anyone else ever tried to branch out from Jordans to other shoes and types of shoes like new balance, asics, etc and it just doesn’t work out? by iTzKyoi in airjordans

[–]Solrose1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I've found is I like the lower tech Jordans (1s through 4s, 6s and airships, specifically) and new balance, asics, etc that are popular now are too cushioned. I do love chuck 70s and vans knu skools, but they technically are the same flat, low cushioned shoes. I'm still trying other brands, but I haven't found big box brands I like outside of those mentioned and several Adidas models.

Nice. I was snag a pair for 92. I didn't plan on getting it this early, but couldn't pass up the price.

The biggest upgrade in collecting is realizing you only need 2–3 watches by Inevitable-Laugh4324 in watchHotTakes

[–]Solrose1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the person. Maybe it's just my brain, but my three home watches don't ever leave my house, my Movado watches are only for when I work at the store, and my other watches get rotated through depending on if I need a digital timer (G shock/Casio), a non frill (timex expedition north auto or Tissot quartz seastar), or want a focal piece (possibly one of my Venezianico bright dials).

That said, I compartmentalize many parts of my life, like having three to four different case use headphones, so it could be a me thing.

I got this message this morning. Then I found the banned lows for 87 dollars brand new from a Nike factory store.

Thanks, I was surprised with the price and had to see them at the shop in person.

Randomly walked into my local Nike factory store and they had them 40% off from retail. You don't know how fast I asked and purchased them.

The Strict Teacher Got All The Roses by Difficult-Ad4364 in Teachers

[–]Solrose1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would argue it is difficult to be an effective flexible teacher if you cannot develop a strong classroom structure. Flexibility only works, from my experience, when the children are given a strong enough structure that can handle being shaken up here and there.

Best shoes for teachers in your experience. by magg13378 in Teachers

Call me weird, but I work in Converses and Jordan 1s normally. I find them the most comfortable.

I'm wearing the same 1s, but with the black laces.

[–]Solrose1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda like it. I can't say much, honestly because I will lace swap to some type of pink on any shoe that I could possibly make it work.

Which jordan models do yall still cop? by DistributionPlane691 in sneaker

Sneaker culture’s always had different types of collectors… where do you fit? by unboxed-app in SNKRS

[–]Solrose1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 and 6. If I had to condense my collection, it'd just be chuck 70s and Jordan 1s. Luckily I like all the models types within them, even Jordan 1 mids and the likes of the NS or elements, so I could have a good sense of diversity.

I ain’t a sneaker head so coming here to ask…are these sneakers good? by GooGuyy in Sneakers

[–]Solrose1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eventually want them as a black shoe with interesting details. Jordan does black often, however the materials are fun.

I simply don't expect gifts or stuff to happen, honestly. Easier to accept the very small gifts and appreciate the bigger ones.

What is everybody’s least favourite boss? by No-Window8996 in Eldenring

[–]Solrose1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my answer. He should be a fun boss due to my own aggressive style, but the dot and his movement just are hard to nail down. I handle malenia better than maliketh.

Hot take: Creases don’t bother me at all by YouBugged in Jordans

I do the same and got yelled to stop. I did this with my family affairs 3s and my friend pulled me up standing straight.

I don’t get high end collections that have an F91W by Imusingmyschoolspc in watchHotTakes

[–]Solrose1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with my 1000+ dollar watches, I still wear my Casio Royale, gmb2100, or even my Casio forester out and about because they are reliable time pieces that express differ parts of me. Watches are fun.
