I remember they were right cool back in junior high, along
with Guns 'N Roses, Nirvana, Ace of Bass, Boyz2men, Beverly
Hills 90210, stuff like that.

I don't even know what they are, but I remember they were
hip back in my junior high years... they from the 70's? I'm
clueless... :-l

Upuntil about 2 months ago, I have been wearing pretty much
only my 10 eyeley, steel tow capped workmans DM's which I
painted purple for about 5 years. They finally died, i'll
always keep them though. New Rock boots are cooler and
bigger, but DM's are cheaper. I dunno what you mean by "what
people think of them" you won't get spat on in the street
for wearing them if thats what you think... I now wear a
pair of chunky Swear trainers that are hot pink and make me
taller than flim-flam :D

If you went to Nordstroms in USA for like the last couple
weeks they had the Anniversary sale and there was really
good prices on shoes.
