Hi,
I've lurked the site for a number of years (tried registering in 2012 but had the apparently prevalent problem of Just Not Working™ properly. Nevertheless, I decided to reg again and this time it worked.
I'm a 33 year old fellow from Finland and I've been an SS fan for ~4-5 years - a latecomer. I wear US11-12s. I don't do dress shoes, if I need to wear a suit (which is luckily so rare), I wear supes with it. I don't do other sneakers either. I've got a pair of miadidas 80s waiting for my upcoming wedding. (I'll post these to the miadidas thread if I have the access)
What else, I'm a partner at a tech company, getting married this summer to my gf after 15 years, have a bit under two months 'til my firstborn is arriving and we got two cats. I've got other hobbies as well, all of them money sinks, so I have to divide up my fun-money between them and buying shoes.
Since the weather is so crappy here during wintertime, there's roughly about 4-5 month period when I can't wear my supes, since I don't want to a) freeze my toes off or b) bust up my nice supes, so currently we're soon hitting the "omg I can wear these outside now"-weather, which is nice.
I've been meaning to take a group shot of my collection (which is easily manageable, since it's only 15 pairs currently), so I'll try to snap one and post it soonish.
