You kids are doing it wrong. Allow me to demonstrate proper goth footwear as it was taught to me many years ago.

Personally, I think you can do much better. Hey if you want to be stupid and blow your money on shit, then that is your call. I am shocked that your judgment has lapsed this far, I mean really.
I think you may be taking this a bit to...
Oh fuck it I don't care anymore.

I don't like them, the yellow puts me off. But Murex Purple was indeed a royal colour and was also a complete and utter smelly bastard to produce ( being made of festering rotten molluscs and all that, how very fitting for royalty )

Well, this sentence has pretty much satisfied gnet's irony quota for the next two years.

I personally hate sneakers on myself and only own one pair of white and grey crap that is manditory for physical education class. I wear boots and a lot of high heels. I love me some stiletos!! but Gothicus I do like sneakers on men, especially colored ones. Purple will look awesome on you!

Is this a thread specifically devoted to your future footwear, or only sneaker-type footwear, or any footwear, or current gnet user's footwear? I ask because I too have a pair of shoes I shall be ordering as soon as it is within my budget, which right now remains woefully at zero.

WOW! That was a fucking stupid thing to say! All of it! Totally disrespectful and uncalled for! Those shoes in the pic look okay. Wow, what an unthinking and insulting prick I have turned into!

My apologies to Gothicus and to anybody who read that. Goddamn my big STUPID mouth!I am truly sorry Gothicus. Really.

Only Man In Room 5 did it right. The correct answer was

or something along those lines. If I manage to find a store around here that actually sells them, I'd buy them. San Jose sucks for Goth Stores...

Look at them. Soak in their glory. Let their majesty gush forth and suffuse your immediate surroundings, let the fire of their grandeur transform the cold glow of your computer monitor into a blistering heat. Be humbled, for your eyes have cast themselves upon the most awesome shoes ever wrought by human hands, the only shoes fit for the divine feet of Gothicus Maximus.

I will possess them. Godslayer Jillian, I know you're thinking about posting something regarding the manufacture of these shoes, but I warn you, curb thy tongue, for I care not. I would personally cut down 17 little Colombian boys with 12 hours work days to own these marvelous items of footwear.

I just thought you should all know.

Those are pretty banging, they are kinda like b-boy shoes.

Do what I do-wear skirts and cardigans every day. That way you don't have any use for overly dramatic boots of this nature. Do it even if you're a dude.

I like those skater shoes with the thick tongues. They form a pleasing angle with my shin, and have more the proportions of smaller shoes.

P.S. Fuck websites that put a redirect page between the search engine and the website itself. Press the back button and it re-redirects you. Honestly, how many people are going to think "Oh gee. I can't go back! I guess I'll just have to surf the site forever..."

You might be able to defend the idea that the pigment of Klingon blood is closer to a fuchsia, but Ditto's color can't be argued.

Well, forgive me if I didn't keep up with Pokemon beyond the age of 12. I admit in that video, the later ones were purple, but not until the Gold version. In Green and Red/Blue, they seemed to be a more pale dusty rose, and in Yellow, it was yellowish-grey olive green, the kind of colour one would get if one mixed yellow, white, and Ivory Black. In my Pokemon books they were all pink. :P And CLEARLY PINK. Pink as a wad of bubble gum flavoured bubble gum.

Edit: I never played the video games, so I was unaware of the purple dittos in Gold and later.
