I have a goal. It is called, "buy some high top shoes and wear them every day in college and be the coolest kid on campus."
I've narrowed my options down to 5, and I will put them in order of least favorite to MY VERY FAVORITE THAT I THINK I WILL BUY!
#5 - do you see the name of the colors? I made sure to put it in the screen shot. It's called Camel/Eggplant/powder blue. What better combination of colors could their possibly be? You've got your animal, food, and 70s reference. LOVE!
I really like the 80s tastic nature of them, especially the poof, but I fear that I am not cool enough to wear them. I don't want people to think I'm a poser, you know?
#4 - I will call these "DJ Tanner"
These are also rather poofy, but even more 80s slash 90s because of the faux paint splatters and velcro IN ADDITION TO the excitingly colored shoelaces.
But, once again... I risk the poser thing...
#3 - Classic
I love these, they are super awesome, and yet plain enough that they could go with almost any outfit. This was a toughie. The problem is, they are not as awesome as number 2 or number 1. That is why it is number 3.
#2 - I will call these "Native American meets a paint spill"
I love these. Really. They say "HARAJURU LOVERS" and I think that is probably some Japanese Animation thing. Bonus. Being mistaken for an anime freak could be very beneficial if I ever need some nerdy assistance. Alas, they are not the winner because...
(to quote Jen) "Maraca shake please...."
The WINNER! #1
That's right. Your eyes are not deceiving you. Those are ZIPPERS. They are charcoal with multi-colored zippers in the back. I love them with all my heart, might, mind, and strength. I think they are alternative enough AND conventional enough.
What a beautifully miraculous paradox.

Ha ha the zippers crack me up because they seem almost Michael Jacksonesque. You know what I mean?!
Ah that is such a hard decision to make. I think in order to not be a poser you have to own all five. But if you have to pick a pair I would have to say the zipper are the coolest. But I love the patterns on the first two shown. I think you are in a pickle. If all else fails choose the ones that you think Mika would wear most! Love high tops shoes.
HELLO. I liked them all until I saw the ones you chose, and then I immediately forgot the previous shoes. ZIPPERS?? Dang, i'm jealous. And not in a friendly way. I feel envy, deep inside.
(love the maraca shake)
oh wait, i see that you have not chosen quite yet. Well, clearly #1 is the way to go.
Aren't those against BYU dress code? I think they're too radical :)
Yeah, they're all pretty darn amazing. Excellent options. But my vote is for the zippery ones too. Not to brag, but I have shoes with zippers that are made out of corduroy and they basically upped my cool points ten fold the first time I wore them.
