what about the people in the hip hop dancing scene?

they cant really wear other clothes to look hip hop


I just cant stand biters and clones, there are probably 100's of sneaks considered in the "hip-hop" genre, they dont all have to stick to
one colorway,
one build,
one style,
one brand

More importantly, most of them aren't even hip hop, or dancing, they just get em 'coz there friend got em and so on. Plus, Dictate ur own style, dont try and look hip hop, BE hip hop and ur look will convey that.......

Oh, and im 16, :D

I think it's just nice basic stuff, it's lightweight, comfy and cheap (off ebay)...

They have large appeal to hipsters and wannabees too... With their purple and lame gold and satin jackets (obviously)

yeah Heist is pretty decent. Got some good futura stuff and some other bits and pieces. And yeah the crooks jeans are pricey as hell, along with any crooks stuff in oz. I don't understand why anyone here would buy it from a store when its available for half the price off the net. I'm all for supporting local businesses but paying double what you can get it for elsewhere is just charity.
Its pretty easy to get most stuff you're after in Melbs.
Other shops worth a mention from my trip there last week were Someday (Supreme, OF, Neighborhood, PAM, Visvim etc), Provider, Evolve, Adidas Originals store, Carhartt (also stock Undefeated and Nike) and a few others.
Hype DC had a few decent pairs of shoes as well as Glue
NB's get a lot of play in Melbourne i noticed.

best bet is to check the shop guide on the sneaker freaker site for stores and locations.

btw dare2dream, I noticed someone was wearing one of your shirts on 'so you think you can dance' the other night

Yeah walked past it today.

Coppers everywhere being ever so polite in tell people to basically fuck off.

And for some reason a bunch of suits that looked like they worked around the area holding up some tarp to block off seeing the area the stabbing took place.

Looked kinda silly really.

Poor kid though, dunno the whole story but damn he was just 19.
