Honesty... I wouldn't want to be caught dead in those things. Why the hell do those things need to be made of neon colours? Those shoes are cool when you're either eight years old or one of those people who wear these abysmal club shirts.

That's actually something that keeps bothering me about the entire merchandising industry. Everything they put out must be bright, glowing and t-shirts must have every square inch filled with some print. Why? You only look like an epileptic seizure on two legs when wearing them. And don't nerds look pathetic enough as it is? Why the need to make them look even worse?

Well, Anarky... you've heard about the hip new thing being sneakers, right? Expensive designer sneaks like these. Though I agree. The Leonardo and Raphael ones look like they came out of Kid's Footlocker. I think they were really getting somewhere with the colors and no print, like the Donatello and Michelangelo came out. I've seen people wear those kinds of sneaks before. People that look like they walked out of a 2008 version of Breakin.'

But that Raphael one screams "Bo Biters." Anyone remember those? Those plastic things that preschoolers put on their laces so the bows won't come untied..... Those things came out a year too late for me.

I don't see any TMNT logotype on Donatello and Michelangelo, aren't there any at all?

I don't think they need a logo type. I mean, that's what makes Leo and Raph shoes look like they're for children. I think the colored style is a lot more discreet. I mean, less discreet that a large Raph bow biter.

Those are really cool if you're in middle school or just love discrediting yourself as a responsible adult.

There's nothing I enjoy more than discrediting myself as a responsible adult! I want a pair of Mikey's Nikes myself.

It's not like I'm a fuddy-duddy or anything. I'm completely open about my love for things like Turtles and Pokemon. I just want to look good too, and draw the line at wearing cartoon franchise sneakers.
