these before the current creative director

That first fit still flames

on god

fashion in general had a really good spot in the mid 2010s where there was a comfortable balance of things that could all work together.

I'll also fight that proportions were perfect around that time. we were getting away from the SUPER skinny stuff and still weren't quite at any of the over sized or baggy stuff. Things just fit and I liked that

Never seen it before, who is it

Black ACRs look great in it

no clue lol just had it in my inspo stash 😶

Who rocking it

Word

Blame the evolution of social media

The SLP stuff in the Mid 2010’s is GOAT

Not personally into a lot of the more recent high fashion stuff. Not a fan of loose fitting clothing. Tight or fitted just right always looks better IMO.

these arent what ppl think of when hearing chelsea boot dawg, these just have the elastic shaft

lmfao shoutout troyd247, dude had no shame

If i was tall and skinny I’d still dress like that

Idk either unfortunately, just know it’s been kicking around inspo boards forever. Reverse image search points to Reddit but it’s a private community now so can’t open the post

Think the key word here is High fashion

it doesnt matter what people think of these are literally chelsea boots

Crazy that I've never seen it then because I tried to take in everything Nike x ACR related from the start of this thread onward:

no they aren't

boot w elastic shaft =/= chelsea boot, that style shaft just became synonymous with chelseas

pound cake intro

love this style, i miss when cav empt was popping off

i guess theyre too tall? to me the defining feature of a chelsea boots is the elastic shaft

This is all post 2016 when s*** started changing..
