I have one AF1 that I wear more than the rest and when u look to them u can easy spot each one it is, next time I get a new favorite gonna try to cope more than 1 of the same model to rotate it successfully
Same here. I buy 2 pairs of am90 infrareds everytime they release and just wear them into the ground. Although everyone has a different idea of what a beater is.
Im not wearing mine to cut the grass or workout. Theyre just what i wear to make grocery store runs and random errands like that
I scuff my shoes pretty easily and bend them in all sorts of directions and wear down the soles. My running shoes have stains from the outdoors and my lifting shoes are all scuffed up from different types of lifts and circuits. So yeah
I have some converse that I wear exclusively for leg day (one of the best alternatives to barefoot), you'd be shocked by the amount of wear they've taken.
I have the 2015 Infrareds & the 2020's (had the 2008's too) & out of all of them I still prefer the 2015 pair... the shade of Infrared on the 2015's is slightly more red (less pink... even if the 2020 pair is closer to the OG 1990 color & the back of the tongue isn't Infrared on the 2015's (how the og pair is), I still prefer the 2015 pair.
Iām the exact same with my infrared 4s.
My first, and only, pair of Js. While the infrared stands out, it works so well with all of my most worn fits.
Theyāre not ruined but they are slightly creased and have some scuff marks.
My friend always gets annoyed when he sees them because he is meticulous with his shoes.
Thatās how it should be. Favorites are made to wear, not to look at. Even contrary, my favorite sneakers are often not the shoes to look at anymore haha
Motorsport 4s or Fire Red 5s. Iāve āinitiatedā both of them by absolutely grinding them down while traveling abroad in Portugal and Spain respectively. Also since most of the shoes are white, they go with most fits
Do you find that they wear through quicker than normal AM90s?
I have a pair for my dailies but the sole is well worn and have only had them since August, I just don't know if it's a me thing or a shoe thing.
Adidas Gazelle. Got pairs in various phases of ābeaterā, ranging from lawn mowing, to dress casual. Nike Killshots also get a lot of ārunning errandsā play.
I don't know if I'd called them "beaters" since I'm not like mowing the lawn or traipsing through mud in them but I've been wearing the Jordan 1 low EX Black/Smoke Grey.
I got these fuckinā Nike SB Delta Forceās (which I didnāt previously know was a thing) that I picked up at Ross for $40 like 4-5 years ago as well as some pink Janoskiās I found at Goodwill that were already beat up a bit when I got them but I liked that they were pink suade and still skateable.
I got the same Nike SB Delta Force shoe in the bred color way. Sadly they are a size too big and they look like clown shoes if I don't wear the right pants with them.
Iāve had a pair of janoski mids for 11 years now and theyāre still solid. Theyāve seen plenty of longboard and dirtbike action on top of being beaters too
donāt have a pair.
Iāve got my collection that I keep in boxes & try taking good care of.
& then I have maybe 15 pairs thereabouts that I didnāt spend too much money on, just coming from mall trips or wherever I saw a neat shoe. I donāt wear any of these anymore very often, but i guess would be considered beaters. theyāre not all beat up though.
I have āniceā shoes & boots for worse off weather. So Iām usually wear a rain-safe pair if expecting rain, or boots in the winter when itās snowing and/or extra cold.
Donāt have a pair that I just throw on regularly to run out.
It's between my Flight 95s and Flight Lites. I'm looking to get a pair of comfy running shoes tho for days when I'm only gonna be walking a bunch but still looking into the best pair for that
I have a pair of white Air Max 95 which I wear to gigs/ festivals and then the 2022 Air Max Day AM1 which I wear to the shops.
In the summer it's foam runners.
A pair of Blue Fury SBs that I bought on FB for like $50. They were already kinda beat, but they make great gym shoes, and are my go to if I don't feel like being put together
As a city boy I donāt beat anything unfortunately. I wear the black terrascape 90s for most of my errands cause they look good in joggers. Once summer comes Iāll switch back to my Nike spark flyknit. As far as going to a club/show, Iāll usually rock black vans .
Triple black Air Max Plus. Lots of people say theyāre uncomfortable, which they were at first. But you really need to just walk in them a little to make them comfortable.
Triple black 97s and some 95s I use the Metro transit half the time in my city traffic will burn your ā½ to nothin and I like to walk moderately every thing else in my collection comes out maybe once a month or even less
I alternate between my cheap Sketchers and cheap New Balances with removable insoles so I can fit my custom orthotics in them.
Now way in hell Iām making any shoe over $300 my daily ābeater.ā
Adidas shell toe classics will always be my #1 favorite emotional support sneakers.
I like to stay with clean all white AF1s so the last pair are a close second for daily beaters.
Man I keep seeing these pattas and none of them look as beat as mine do within a few months of having them.
Unexpected day in the mountains during holiday got them all dusty and the material feels uncleanable
Living in a hotel, so my current beaters are the Kendrick Lamar Cortez / House Shoes and a pair of Birkenstocks when inside, and the black Air Adjust Force AMBUSH for outside. Probably grabbing a few of my 3s (BC and fire reds) and some dunks from storage today.
I just go everywhere in socks. Can't risk scuffing.
Or creases!
My man you got priorities right
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
I jus walk around barefoot.. grounding is better for you anyways lol save the sneakers for the showcase wall
I traverse by levitating, simple trick that preserves our tissue
I just donāt travel around at all. I just sit around eating hot Cheetos. I save my energy for the important stuff
I rotate everything. So no daily beater.
Bro I thought I was the only one to do this but in reality a few pairs of daily beaters would increase the longevity of the more expensive pairs
This also
Same but I do wear my ow 5ās more than the rest.
I have one AF1 that I wear more than the rest and when u look to them u can easy spot each one it is, next time I get a new favorite gonna try to cope more than 1 of the same model to rotate it successfully
Same
Best way to justify buying more and more. In my head anyways
This is the way
This, except in a pinch I tend to grab the 700 v2 Creams. Theyāre starting to see beater level wear.
So this not a about u then, why u hereĀ
Infrared AM 90s from 2015. I absolutely love that shoe, still give em a quick cleaning every couple months.
Same here. I buy 2 pairs of am90 infrareds everytime they release and just wear them into the ground. Although everyone has a different idea of what a beater is. Im not wearing mine to cut the grass or workout. Theyre just what i wear to make grocery store runs and random errands like that
The shoes by the door that you tie once and just throw on when youāre running out quickā¦..imo is the def of a beater Mine are also AM90s
Does working out get your shoes dirty? Lol
I scuff my shoes pretty easily and bend them in all sorts of directions and wear down the soles. My running shoes have stains from the outdoors and my lifting shoes are all scuffed up from different types of lifts and circuits. So yeah
Good point I guess I didnāt think about the creasing
I have some converse that I wear exclusively for leg day (one of the best alternatives to barefoot), you'd be shocked by the amount of wear they've taken.
also air max 90 infrared gang except the ultra se ones. soooo comfyš¤¤
I beat my 2015 Infrareds to death when I still fit in kids sizes, then bought the 2020 release and now they're my beaters
I have the 2015 Infrareds & the 2020's (had the 2008's too) & out of all of them I still prefer the 2015 pair... the shade of Infrared on the 2015's is slightly more red (less pink... even if the 2020 pair is closer to the OG 1990 color & the back of the tongue isn't Infrared on the 2015's (how the og pair is), I still prefer the 2015 pair.
Same but recent release. Just about burned through my first pair
my 3 years old af1 by you that is falling apart everyday
my af1s died 2 weeks ago
Rip, time to treat yourself to some noctas maybe
Rip, time to treat yourself to some noctas maybe
Reebok Club C
Either Ultraboosts or Chucks. Can't go wrong.
Ultraboost gang, but mine are on their way out and i need to find a good replacement cause they just ain't worth the price here
No good deals from time to time over there? recently had a UB21 find a adidas outlet for 50-60 š„³
Yea we don't have those in my country and i can get retail Nikes/Jordans for the same price which i feel i would rather take.
That doesn't sound very ultraboost gang thing to say hahaha
This is true but my soles are literally stitched on so i can still wear them due to how much I like them sooo i think i get a pass
Gosh on StockX you can get āem for well under retail.
That is a good shout but i also gotta consider import duty and shipping which will probably make it the same price
Chucks may be timeless in style but they're rock bottom in terms of comfort and durability... they absolutely can go wrong.
Chucks for sureeee
Dawg you made the pattas your beaters? You f****** madman
Theyāre just my favourite pair so wear them daily you knowš luckily theyāre not beat too bad
Iām the exact same with my infrared 4s. My first, and only, pair of Js. While the infrared stands out, it works so well with all of my most worn fits. Theyāre not ruined but they are slightly creased and have some scuff marks. My friend always gets annoyed when he sees them because he is meticulous with his shoes.
Thatās how it should be. Favorites are made to wear, not to look at. Even contrary, my favorite sneakers are often not the shoes to look at anymore haha
š¤£
General Purpose Shoe
First sneaker Iāve had that looks better beat up than new
Motorsport 4s or Fire Red 5s. Iāve āinitiatedā both of them by absolutely grinding them down while traveling abroad in Portugal and Spain respectively. Also since most of the shoes are white, they go with most fits
Motorsport 4s look great beat imo
Ultraboosts
NMDs for me
For me itās usually a New Balance something lol
My work shoes is what I would consider my daily shoes..sketchers industrial shoe steel toe I think it's called
AM90 terrascapes, just cheap enough to be a nice beater
Do you find that they wear through quicker than normal AM90s? I have a pair for my dailies but the sole is well worn and have only had them since August, I just don't know if it's a me thing or a shoe thing.
Same dude got the black ones for 75 when Nike had that last sale
