Almost 40. Sometimes u gotta do something to prove it to yourself that you still got it. This past year has been one of the toughest of my life. Thankful I can still do this. https://t.co/91iKq5la9c

RT @j_mobile: “If a shoe sucks on foot IT TAKES AWAY FROM the shoe being good or not,” & “at the end of the day they’re made to be worn. No…

I never said anywhere that I said I base sneakers solely off their comfort, as of how I rate a shoe. It's always looks+comfort, or just not feel awful. All I said is that even if a shoe looks amazing, if it feels like crap on foot, then maybe it's not as amazing as someone

@SneakerPhetish Lmfaoooo aye man, explain this @MatthewJWelty because you are contradicting yourself You spoke to comfort being a major tool of measurement, now you are refuting it, which is it?

This is all i said. And then somehow it gets twisted into i only care about how a shoe feels, not looks. Good design=good looks+good function. This is a blanket statement for all shoes, all brands.

@SneakerPhetish @PYRUSDUDE I gotchu- welty : great looking shoes degrade if uncomfy. Kari: Uncomfy = not good Welty: didn’t say that He’s saying uncomfy can still be good, just not AS good. 😂

bingo.

@artnkicks @SneakerPhetish Kari said something like “so basically he doesn’t like most Jordans” it’s just cut off in the screenshot. Just guessing that’s what he took issue with

No, you simply just put words into my mouth. I literally said "this isn't directed at any brand." And you said i'm probably talking about Jordans. I don't make up things about you, don't do the same about me. thanks.

Kari @SneakerPhetish

@MatthewJWelty I shouldn’t have deleted that but if you have to keep telling people that’s not what you meant, maybe it was worded kinda poorly lol - you’ve had to clarify your statement a few times now. I was trying to help you out but you got it 🤷🏽‍♂️

We've all, at some time or another, purchased a sneaker we were super hyped on. And either they hurt our feet or fit too small or even too big. And we never wore them. And, even though they looked good, we didn't think they were as dope as before we got them. Happens to everyone.

I didn't say this. Please stop spinning things. I simply just said that comfort should be taken into consideration when considering how good a shoe is compared to others.

lol at the things that pop up at work when we're moving offices. EH-HA 4ever. https://t.co/VaoUqrUTry

Easily one of my favorite sneakers this year.

Lazy in hand review: THESE ARE FUCKING AMAZING! You're welcome @looselacespod https://t.co/j4O01LaY2H

Call me crazy, but if a shoe actively sucks on foot. Like the ppl who designed them kind of messed up making the shoe (This isn't targeted at any specific sneaker). Then it takes away from the shoe being good or not. At the end of the day they're made to be worn. Not looked at.

Honest Q. Can a sneaker be in running for Sneaker of the Year if it's not a comfortable sneaker?

God is good. https://t.co/dkxrPIUAOZ

for those wondering why i'm so excited about Air Max 95s dominating the sneaker convo this year. This is why. This is where a lot of my love for sneakers comes from. Getting these shoes back then meant everything to me. https://t.co/kok52bTFR2
