    Why aren't velcro shoes fashionable?

    I've been told that velcro shoes were ok when I was 5... and will be ok when I'm 60... this upsets me.

    I remember being made fun of in middle school for wearing them... i specifically went out of my way to find them... which is difficult now.

    I hate laces! Velcro makes so much more sense... But I don't wear velcro shoes now because it is laughable.

                I run alot, and like hte ability to do so whenever I may need to... and I just need the tightenss you can get from laces. velcro is not an option.

                And i don't see what people see in chucks. they remind me of clown shoes or soemthing. If I am going to buy a pair of shoes, tehy are going to be a high performance running shoe, not a flat soled dorky POS.

                    I don't really care what kind of shoes I wear. I just wear what I can get on and off fast, and what's nice and comfy. Right now, I wear big skate shoes that I can slip on and off, but tighten them if I need to.

                        Now who really cares if you get made fun of a bit? I'm about the only guy at my school that wears a scally cap...

                        Wear whatcha like.

                            Hey Miscue,
                            It's okay. My 6 year old still likes his Spiderman Velcro shoes more then his Air Jordans! Do you wear Spidy Velcro shoes too?

                              'cause it shows an aparent inability to manipulate your fingers in such a way as to tie a shoe.Not cool.So you make fun because you figure that guy probably can't give me the finger either.
