Tennis Shoes?

Question

What is it with the way in which these shoes are worn these days? I have a pair of stan smiths. I have seen so many people wearing them with the laces untied, practically hanging off their feet! Is this cool? Should i wear my trainers like this? I have also seen the ideas of having the last peice of loose laces dangling from the last eyelet, again is this cool? How should i wear these shoes?

Here are a few pics of how the shoes would look if the last peice of lace was left dangling, what do you think?

Answer 1

Don't try to fit in with the crowd, be your own person, wear them the way you like.

Answer 2

Since your watching how other people wear their clothes and wondering if this or that is cool, and whether or not you should wear it that way, then I'm guessing your younger.

Well, I hope your not young (as in early teens), and not influenced by peer pressure, then all I've got to say is that you should start a new trend. You know, the trend of tying your shoes so you don't trip over the laces and fall and hurt or break something. Be a trend setter, not a follower, and that my friend, is cool.

I tie my tennis shoes BTW.

Answer 3

People have been wearing adidas "classics" like that since the beginning of time. If you want to do it, go for it. I used to do stuff like that but I began just tying the knot behind the tongue because walking around in a manner that would keep untied or stuffed-tongue shoes on was a pain in the ***. You can't run or jump with sneakers that are on loosely. So basically I grew out of it lol.

Answer 4

Since everybody seems to be wearing them w/ no laces, try going against the grain & doing something different? I know back in the day we used to weave our shoelaces. Depending how clean your shoes are it could be a good look--especially white-on-white or black-on-black. There's all different ways you could lace em up hth.

Answer 5

Always lace up your sneakers and tie them. The fools that wear them untied are extremely lame.

Answer 6

if decide to wear them in this fashion to be cool i would highly reccomend lacing them up and tying them before taking on a physical endevour involved with foot movement.
