Broke out for the nihongo grocery shopping
 
Royals are a million times better than boring shadowzzzzzz. Stop it.
i thought shadow's were boring as hell as well, and then i got them hand. it's the the most convenient shoe i have. also, I brought the royal's after buying the shadows to see if an in hand would change my prospective as well and nothing. not for me.

Seen some Royal hate so had to post.
b/c of the history they're cool, but w/o context... eh.

It's all good. Despite what some ignoramus insists, I don't usually rag on anyone's opinions on sneakers unless it's overly negative or illogical. You not feeling them is perfectly fine.

However, I must say, describing shadows as "convenient" or saying they "go with everything (a very common sentiment)" doesn't really change my opinion that they're boring. That's fine, and it's a good sneaker, it's just not exciting.

oh shadow's definitely aren't exciting, they're just really easy. maybe i like em so much b/c my expectations for them were so low. idk.
 
U must not have shadows...i have both pairs and shadows wayyyyyyy better than royals imo. Leather quality not even close royals got that payless plastic black leather. Like homie said exact ripoff of bred.

The quality on Shadows is absolutely better, but the colorway is boring AF. I have zero interest in them.

I didn’t like the quality on my Royals at first, but they’re breaking in very nicely.

Oh ok yeah i can see how the royals can be more vibrant i guess. I just favor my shadows more cuz they are softer plushier feeling and easy to wear with anything plus im a raider fan lol. Im gona have to wear my royals more often then and give them a good break in.
 
Royals just don’t do anything for me. Amazing quality though.


Careful they will be at you. I’m a prime example of can’t go against the grain on NT. For real though I totally understand you there is a certain C/W that does absolutely nothing for me and o boy you would have thought I told these dudes the world was gonna end lol. I respect your stance though and I’m not (baffled ):rolleyesby the idea that you don’t like something that I do respect fam.
 
royal's definitely aren't better then bred's or shadow's, and are the worst of og lineup. i'd even go as to say that they're a bred ripoff.

O boy you got the attention of you know who love to see how this plays out. First he gonna say stop it, Then he gonna give some long winded excuse why his opinion is the only one that matters. Take my advice and just say uh huh yup you right and that will quite him up.

Why you gotta poke the bear and get S*** Started LOL. No offense to anybody that like Chi. They do absolutely nothing for me Chi ,SBB 2.0, Do nothing for me at all. That's all I have to say not gonna write a 5 min rant about why you should or shouldn't agree with me this is purely my point of view as a J1 consumer.

marikomorose marikomorose @JPS @icysoles718 Watch how I laid the cheese for the rats to see them come out of the woodworks to defend there beloved Chi>D

All good fam as you can see peeps talk down on shadows and I don’t burst into flames trying to defend them. I can appreciate the diversity here though.
