Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Are you swapping between like 5 pairs? As my single pair of shoes, Vans lasted me 5 months when I stopped wearing them 8 years ago. Docs barely made it past a year.

I got Irish Setters for work and am taking proper care of them, and I'm thinking they'll make it to three years.

I have one pair of slip on vans I've had over a year now that are fine, my docs are 3 years old and also fine. I may just not put as much into them, tho I have worn them through travel
