  18. I like “ugly” sneaks but you know I picture everything in my size and put an outfit together for it. I’d rock these but they’ll never come small enough for me. Shawn

  38. I think these are pretty dope. They look way better than the Lebron 11 or the KD 6. The superhigh top takes some getting used to tho.
