Casual Friday here is the option to wear jeans instead of slacks and a flannel but no sneakers. (I work for city hall) Boat shoes are fine.
On the weekends do you know how HARD it is trying to figure out which shoe you want to bring out?! Ill sit in the closet looking up and down trying to figure which shoe I want to stunt out and what do I do?, get some sweats and throw on my futures and call it a day. lol. Unless im really going somewhere I wont take my shoes out. ill wear the "every weekend beater" no point to wear new shoes while cleaning or watching football on the couch. Which is what I been doing these few weeks along with bbqing. Swear the older I get its just not the same any more. Not like HS or College. smh
The gym..... mannnnnn I haven't been there in a MINUTE! lol let me discuss my work life
445am I wake up to be at work by 8. I take the train to the city because I hate filling my car up with 91 in my lexus and wear and tear. It leaves me a hr early to work. im out at 5. I don't get home til after 7. By then im done however I work another pt gig from 7:45-1am close to home. My girl works nights and is off around 2am. I usually eat dinner at my 2nd gig and just hit the shower and pass out for a bit and repeat the process mon-fri. The struggle. They love taking my 32.99 a month for something i don't use though. But that's for us 2 not a single membership for la fitness. That's why we wont cancel it.

I worked for an Investment bank so during my time in NYC, I was unable to wear my sneakers to work.

It takes me forever to pick out shoes also on the weekends, recently I've decided to just pull out shoes that I bought months back and not even worry about my most recent pickups till later, lol.

Diggin' the shoe and the concept a lot, but I can't fade $250 on one pair. Hopefully I'll get lucky with a pair down the line.

I feel you. I get up at 8:30 to lift from 9:00-1130 at the box. Then work from 1230-11 managing on a dock. **** gets rough time schedule wise. Only see my old lady on the weekends so it's just me during the week.

I think its just hard because when they are crispy out the box you want to wait for that special day to bring them out. Not when your going to Costco. lol. But i get it. Its like if me and my girl are hitting the amusement park or steppin to the mall, movie, then im on it. But when she talks target, bed bath and beyond and places i know Jordans are foreign, im straight. Ill bring out the van slip ons. :lol:

Seems like the working class has arrived to throw in their $0.02. I'm in the same boat. I don't have time to camp out for shoes. I work FT Mon-Fri but I too get casual Fridays so I can rock a pair every now and then. The odd time we get jeans week but it usually means donating to a charity which I'm ok with. I think this release will be online or bust for me. The influx of kids picking up this hobbie due to hype is just ridiculous. Everyone claims to be a collector/sneakerhead these days. I've been tempted just to hang up the kicks and part out most of my collection in the last couple of years but something just keeps me hooked.

Im hating on all you casual Friday *** muhsuckas who can wear sneakers! Even if i could it wouldn't matter. Im at a desk where half my body is behind the counter. I would have to walk around to the front lobby where people are to be seen. lol. Im one of the youngest cats on the shoe game here. Most of my co workers are close to retirement besides one guy who works our recreation dept. Came into our side of the office wearing GMP with his work uniform and i doubled taked and acknowledged him like "ohhhhh i see we got the 6s on....." and he replied "yeppppp! i stay on working in the field". LOL never seen him after that. Hopefully he wasn't fired for dress code or something. Other than that Im surrounded by older woman and guys who play golf.
