God, I how long have I been a lurker on SSDB, the day I found it I was so happy. I thought i was alone in the world, lol. I think it was within 2 months of the site launching? I remember a re-config. of sorts awhile back.
Adidas and Shells are not popular here due to the Gay community to be sure. Shells are the OG gangster shoe of choice up here and all the hard-ass white boys still rock proper Shells as a staple shoe.
Adidas and Shells in particular seem to be what Converse and Chuck's are to LA gangsters. Chucks had there time but largely went to the Mexican gang community and punkers. The Mexican gangs are all loosely related across the country so perhaps they adopted it from LA. Tough to say cuz them shoes although dope, are seriously cheap to buy so that effects the equation quite a bit.
