Some kind of meme, I suppose.

Everyone everywhere has those trainers.
logic=they're cheap, comfy and currently fashionable.
But own up Scamp, you've got a pair of Rifts, the summer trainer that everyone wears.
i don't where these. i only wear Prada darling.
ah, but not everyone has camouflage Rifts. There's different colours.
But everyone has these Converse in the exact same colour!
Guilty as charged
wannabe hipsters?
Because wearing them makes you feel American.
Especially the white ones.
(sorry, couldn't resist.)
I saw Chris Morris yesterday wearing them. And everyone wantzs to be him right?
ah ye olde chuck taylors. authenticity to spare, zero arch support. you'll regret later kidz. nike air man! that's where it's at.
I thought this is just an Asian phenomenon. Turns out all ad guys around the world have the same idea of how to look like pseudo-artistes?
pseudo-artists? just try and convince fallon or mother that their work is not pure art.
BETC gives free pairs to creatives... we all wear those trainers cause it's free.
He wrote "artistes," French word for performers i.e. rock band singers? Get it? He wasn't referring to the likes of Picasso, Dali, Van Gogh, etc.
Because they're great. One pair has lasted me 14 years, which is longer than most dogs live. That said, I've defected to the very lovely PF Flyers, which, if they're good enough for Johnny Marr, then they're good enough for me.
I have some of them that I wear at home. For work I buy boots from adman turned bootmaker Tim Little:

Show the account managers what proper footwear looks like I say.
Another question is: why do planners wear those hideous hybrid trainer/shoe things? Frankly, I'd rather have my feet cut off and hop around on the stumps.
I have a Pony like this!
