      A bunch of metal kids back in the day used to rock high top Nikes almost exclusively too, even though "sneaker culture" and that world didn't blatantly have a symbiotic thing, it's still cool and interesting to see what different scenes tend to adopt. It would be interesting to find some guys from classic speed metal bands and such and talk to them about their Vandals and stuff.

    Have I been pronouncing the S. Carter's wrong this whole time?
