For the time being? Wait for it, dude, and ride with me through the twists of time. Look at that ******* hood. I bet it has a built-in uplink to the goddamn motherzepplin.
Where you buy that stuff, bro? Can you PM me the address?

doubt he's the doctor, but him being a timelord would kinda make sense
I like that you actually considered the possibility that he could be the doctor
He probably could be the doctor

Like the contrasting lighter leather straps on option 1, but not sure about the denim and how it will look when it fades. Also worried about indigo loss on my clothing....

Sip-san to me those are one of those things where it's like cool to see and think about but then once you actually get them you're like these are really gross and I want to barf. If it was the version with the chain laying flat I would say go for it

Lol I suck, it's actually the older model, I just took the first pic I could find.

Obviously, anything with a chain will look at least a tiny bit tacky, it's pretty discreet though.

But keep going guys, I'm 50/50 now.

Those shoes are actually super functional. You see, when Raf was starting out as a designer, he loved to bike. But he could only afford ****** bicycles where the chains would snap right off the gears. Growing tired of this, he started wearing spare chains around his shoes. So when those shoes arrive in the mail, don't think about how tacky they look. Think about how much they'll save your ass next time you're riding a ****** bicycle where the chains break. Function over form.
