Can you wear bobo's?

[shoefreakbaby]

Can you?


Down in miami we used to call shaqs, kmart generic brand name shoes Bobos.

So basically on Christmas I saw this homeless guy walking around with no shoes, so in the Christmas spirit I gave him the shoes that were in my car that were my workout shoes.

I have multiples shoes but my grandma stole one and the other one is not cardio "friendly", just simply weight days.

Ok so Im budgeting like a Ramsey now and me needing this shoe is unexpected so Im not allowed to buy new shoes.
But I need it, so I went to Walmart to get some cheap kicks for the mean time. But I couldn't buy it, I could not walk out with bobos.

So I went and got some clearance nikes and broke my monthly budget

I know its shallow, sad but I just could not

Any generic shoe with no brand name basically that you would've found at Kmart back in the day (I think nowadays Walmart and Target have better options. Maybe those discount clothing stores in the hood have em.)

 

[AZwildcats]

Nope, I'm fortunate enough to not have to.

 

[mastamind033]

Nope, those type of shoes are usually terrible quality and break down quickly. Wearing good shoes and protecting my feet are too important as I get older.

 

[gentrification]

Now a days people rock any sneakers back in the day you would get roasted

 

[Master Zik]

Sure.

They're Nikes to you but to me they're just [insert color] sneakers.

s . I’m from south Florida too. When I saw this post, I chuckled. I never cracked on people’s shoes though

 

[oidreez]

So you only have like 4 pairs of shoes? Shoes could be had for like $50. Buy some champion shoes. Sketchers etc.

 

[coldcrush]

champions and sketchers are bobos lol

 

[JVII]

Skechers is bobo's?

If so, I guess I'll say yes since I kinda wanna flex their LA Gear joints, for nostalgia purposes

 

[coldcrush]

1st ones look like fake Js

2nd ones look like Club Reeboks

Those are bobos lol

If you're out of grade school or the hood no one would care.

 

[L7oser]

Bobo's, they make your feet feel fine,
Bobo's they cost a dollar 99.

 

[finessence]

Anything non designer, non Nike, Jordan brand, adidas, converse, Reebok, etc.

Payless, swap meat, CARTOON/COMIC book characters, etc is Bobos.
Incredible Hulk, Superman, spider man, etc. IS BOBOs

 

[sooperhooper]

Haven't heard that term in years. If you're confident enough, you can pull anything off. If i were in your situation, I'd just get a pair with no branding. Who really cares. If you care that much about a brand name it's probably something deep down you're insecure about. I used to be like that at one point for whatever reason, especially in school.

 

[coldcrush]

Shaq's are bobos

cats used to get roasted for rocking the "dunkman" LOL.

Aye the second ones kinda raw

 

[6pac]

If you know how to dress and are respected you can pull off anything.

 

[oidreez]

OP is a woman so no one cares if she rocks payless

 

[shotsrangout]

honestly thought most people on here still had like 20 pairs of sneakers from leftover "sneakerhead" days

I have like 20 pairs so even if times get hard I still got some nikes or Jordans to throw on.

 

[langfor5]

Ross, Burlington, Marshalls and TJ Maxx sometimes have shoes priced less than or close to unbranded 'athletic' shoes from WalMart, Target, Payless, etc.

I have seen high end designer, Nike and adidas shoes that look awful so IMO if you rock something with confidence no one is going to say anything. Kanye rocks and designs some of the most awful looking shoes and gets routinely destroyed for it. You don't see it stopping him.

Gull you better get you some Monarchs and call it a day. You know Payless going out of business, right?

 

[s-blaze]

Wear what you like.

You even see Fila and Champion back in the picture.

 

[tr1ll]
