Just kids now a days.....they'll buy crap from the 70's and 80's at the thrift stores cause its trendy, buy the new hot shoes/clothes out but if you're over 40 and do it your a dork. I own a couple pair and started wearing them to the gym but I've had mine forever.

I wouldn't...and I'm a little younger than you. Plus their fugly don't know how these sort of shoes came back into style.

Get some Saucony Hattori's...they are the latest and the greatest.

How do really shitty uncomfortable shoes improve a deadlift?

Flat low hard soles.

1. Keeps the weight on your heels not elevated in the rear to shift the weight forward.

2. Hard soles do not compress as mich so less strength will be used to compress the soles and more to move the bar.

3. Lower soles means your closer to the ground and dont have to move the bar as much to get a full rep.
 
Its not that i care what anyone thinks its more curiosity of what makes it so funny? I just dont get the humor in it....
Ok so its trendy for kids to wear them right now but i still
Dont get it... Oh well kids these days lol
 
They offer no support, shitty sneakers for sure. Only bought one pair back in the day for a job and I hated them.

Just wear Otomoix, bro.

I wore Converse when I was in school in the 80s, and I just bought a new pair a few months ago. If it makes me a dork, so I'm a dork. And to make a point; if we act, feel, and look 20 years younger than we are, who says we can't dress like it too? I'm 44, and I wear SRH shirts, and sometimes skinny jeans, and Vans or Converse shoes when I'm not wearing workboots, which are my usual footwear. If you see some goofy-looking Irish bodybuilder with skinny jeans, a pair of Vans Old Skool slip-ons, and an OP shirt from '83, driving around in an '80s Toyota mini-monster truck with Ratt blaring out from the 8-track player, it might be me!

Were do they sell those, how much and will they go with my skinny jeans?

I got mine a decade ago at the MuscleMag Int'l shop near Chicago for around $100. I'm sure they're available on the interwebs somewhere.

Nothing goes with skinny jeans. I don't even know what those are; pretty sure they're only for girls. Tight or shredded jeans are fine if you're metal or something.

They're all taking pictures because they don't know how to relate to the world without a glowing screen of some kind.
They experience life through a TV, computer, and a smartphone.
Any lucid interpretation of reality they can come up with is " like a dog walking on it's hind legs. It is not done well; but you are surprised to find it done at all"
my apologies to Samuel Johnson for the quote
Christ, kids are retarded these days. Sorry, seeing as it's your daughters I'm picking on.
 
I'm wearing a pair of Jeff Spicoli styled Vans today. Are they shitty and unsupportive enough to be good squat shoes?

Says the archaic boomer who fucked up this world for generations to come.

Sorry you can't function in a world without typewriters and horse-drawn carriages, grandma. Don't worry, when you're senile in another year or two, we'll collectively rape your wrinkly ass with drug costs and nursing care before dancing on you're grave when you finally get the fuck out of the way of those who aren't scared of change.

HTH

So that makes you a gen-X technological troglodyte!

You should be in a museum somewhere.

I'm not afraid of getting old. I'm not under the illusion that youth=superiority.
However, I am able to make calculations in my head, read a map without GPS, remember appointments without using an online calendar, remember people's phone numbers, pick up the phone and call somebody instead of copping out by texting or emailing, witnessing major events without having to watch through a camera screen like it was a lone, glowing Cyclopean meta-eye, and no, I don't believe Wikipedia is a reliable source for anything at all.
If that's old, well I'm as old as the hills.

Yes, in fact I'm paying somebody to type this because I don't know how to use the internet.
Excuse while I go answer my rotary dial phone and protest against the radiation from microwaves. In fact, I may use my abacus to calculate exactly how many mediocre arguments you have written on EF.
