QUIKSILVER skate shoes are pretty much the only decent shoes u can get here, even though they have a VERY ltd collection (and theyre actually cheaper than europe/states stores)

if you can find me a place that sells them i will buy. most of my usual online stores like Dr Jays and Main Source aren’t carrying them.

True, its hard to find good snickers in Kuwait, gotta buy most of them from when you travel..

I don’t think your choice in shoes is weired or not nice, its actually nice, cool and very vivid with sophisticated and non usual patterns. I like the ones you have featured, I would never buy any but I like them and would appreciate and like to see them on by others, and on that matter i remember you wearing something similar to the second image up there, on the last business meeting we had and they were nice.

BTW, you can find some hidden treasures in those small shops in Wataniya Mall in Salmiya and the one opposite to it…

i wish u can even get a plain white one with black stripes. The selection of trainers here is just really awful. Same with fashion in general for that matter.

Mark…. UK (London actually) stores sell these unique shoes because there are enough people interested in them. Go to the suburbs in Middle America and the selection is as bad as in Kuwait, if not worse.

i love SIZE? and you’re right, I do get depressed when I see our local stores. I won’t ever wear something like the ones in the photos but I love retro sneakers, mainly Puma, Adidas and Nike models reissued from the 70s. And Converse of course!

to be honest mark…i think that those disc or disk (however u spell it) are kinda cool looking…living in LA i have the advantage of wearing anything and no one would care….those shoes would look awesome in LA u can say theyre like party shoes…and that u can only wear them wen u go clubbing or partying or wutever…like i cant wear those wen i go to the mall…coz ill be too flashy….
thats whats wrong with most of the kuwaiti teens/population….they tend to overdress — by tend, i meant always — for like malls and shit…bleh…
