renaissance Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Soooo, boat shoes with black Nike socks - when and why did this become a thing? Seems especially popular among high school/young 20's looking guys and it's pretty ridiculous looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins4Life6388 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I mostly see "lax bros" with this look. I personally dont understand it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissance Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I mostly see "lax bros" with this look. I personally dont understand it at all. Yea it's pretty prevalent in Annapolis, but I've seen a few guys in Rockville sporting it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Boat shoes? I wear black nike crew socks (and normally crews in general, unless I'm wearing khakis or something like that), but only when I have on black basketball shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissU28 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I really like boat shoes on guys, though I can't get my boyfriend to wear them But with black nike socks? I haven't seen it, but it doesn't sound good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this is what I'm talking about http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/27534_119711691402355_1339_n.jpg Looks stupid and no idea who thought to start it Oh. My. God. I can honestly say that I'd have to strongly fight the urge not to slap the hell out of any guy that would ever walking around looking like that. That's like a 9.0 on the Bamma Scale. That's worse than the cats who wear the grandpa socks with sandals (not sure if they still do that, as I haven't seen any in the last 5-6 years) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Usage of the word Bamma is hilarious That's one of the few words that I've picked up from some of my friends However, I only reserve it for the most heinous of offenses, to which black crew socks /boat shoes definitely apply. That is just sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I don't particularly like the way that those shoes look, but if I were to wear something similar, I probably wouldn't be wearing socks, or I'd be wearing extremely low cut socks, and would be dressed very casual. If you wear crew socks with that, you should be mocked and ridiculed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if I were to ever wear something like that with socks, they damn sure wouldn't be visible. If I was actually even on a boat, I probably still wouldn't wear those.

Mr. Sinister Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 would you wear these?http://bbsimg.ngfiles.com/1/18533000/ngbbs498fbf0b60c23.jpg As far as "On the water"/beach wear is concerned? Nah I'd go with shoes like these (I actually have an all black pair that look somewhat similar: Other than that, I'd probably go with regular sandals. The only time I might wear flip flops is if I'm using an outdoor shower or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I have these exact (by which I mean color and not womans lol) water sneakers. They have mesh holes in the bottom and are great for hiking and running too. I wear them for the hell of it at times. Cheap also. On a boat, bare feet always and only.
