yo guys, what’s your go-to beater shoe for just wrecking on the daily?
i’m talking about that one pair you don’t even think twice about trashing—rain, mud, or whatever. mine’s some old vans that are basically falling apart but still somehow holding up.
do you have a specific beater shoe you swear by, or do you just grab whatever’s closest? also, do you buy cheap ones just for the purpose of beating up, or do you retire an old favorite into beater shoe status?
kinda curious if anyone else has a weird attachment to their beaters even tho they’re destroyed lol.
drop your picks below! 👟
yo, my go-to beater shoe is def an old pair of nike air monarchs.
they’re like tanks—ugly as hell but indestructible.
i bought ‘em specifically for beating up, and they’ve survived everything from hiking to mowing the lawn.
if you’re looking for cheap beaters, check out Ross or Marshalls. they always have random sneakers for under $30.
i swear by my chuck taylors for beater shoe duty.
they’re already flat and simple, so i don’t feel bad trashing them.
plus, they’re cheap enough to replace when they finally give out.
i retired my first pair after they got too beat up, but now i just buy new ones and let ‘em rip.
honestly, i just grab whatever’s closest for my beater shoe needs.
right now, it’s some random adidas i got on sale at finish line.
i don’t overthink it—if it’s comfy and can handle dirt, it’s good enough for me.
but i do have a soft spot for my old beaters. they’ve been through so much lol.
i’m all about the skechers work shoes for beaters.
they’re not stylish, but they’re durable af and super comfy.
i got mine on amazon for like $40, and they’ve been through mud, rain, and even some light construction work.
if you’re looking for something tough, these are worth checking out.
my beater shoe is a pair of timberland boots.
i know they’re not the typical choice, but they’re built to last.
i’ve had mine for years, and they’re still going strong despite all the abuse.
if you’re into boots, i’d recommend grabbing a pair on sale at zappos.
i’ve got a pair of puma suedes that i’ve been using as my beater shoe for ages.
they’re not the most durable, but they’re cheap and easy to replace.
i usually snag ‘em from foot locker when they’re on sale.
they’re perfect for casual wear and light messes, but i wouldn’t take ‘em hiking or anything.
yo, these replies are fire!
i didn’t even think about boots or work shoes for beaters, but that’s such a good idea.
i might have to check out those skechers or timberlands next time i’m shopping.
also, shoutout to the person who mentioned ross—i always forget about that place for cheap sneakers.
anyone else have experience with waterproof beaters? i’m thinking about grabbing something for the winter.
i’m weirdly attached to my beaters too lol.
mine’s an old pair of new balance 574s that are literally falling apart.
i retired them from regular wear, but they’re still my go-to for yard work and rainy days.
if you’re looking for something similar, check out joe’s new balance outlet online. they’ve got great deals on older models.
i buy cheap walmart sneakers specifically for beater shoe purposes.
they’re like $20 and last way longer than you’d expect.
i don’t feel bad trashing them, and when they’re done, i just grab another pair.
it’s not glamorous, but it gets the job done.
