Oldest pair of shoes you sport

These Reebok Newport Classic's are the ones I've been sporting for the past, three years.
Change the insoles and laces, but that's about it.
Shot to shit on the outside, but comfy and stylin' within.
I just never understood getting rid of something because it went out of style, unlike everyone else I know.

I just realized that my oldest AND newest pair of shoes are bike riding shoes.
I win at life.

Cleats are still new to me even though I've been aware of their existence for 11 years.

Before the corporations got all cheap and took the import-related, tax-cut offers.
But I digress, those are some styling kicks to be sportin'.
Use 'em till you bruise 'em!!!
