Cool Custom Rotor Pattern PRO-Keds Shoes for the Making



Boyz and Gurlz ~ in case you missed seeing Kristy's custom Rotor shoes along with her sweet pre-production red FD in Ray's April 6th OGTA Meeting Post, you gotta check these sweet souls out! For all us rotor-heads in The Club we can now design our own custom order PRO-Keds just in time for summer.

Rotor pattern shoes by jaimeqa

($65.00)
PRO-Keds Royal Lo
Born on basketball courts and city playgrounds, the iconic PRO-Keds Royal Lo sneaker shows off your unique style. PRO-Keds lets you customize the entire shoe. Medium-width, in men's sizes.


Here's my own design: I'll be sporting these puppies and looking like Thurston Howell III, the original Wizard of Wall Street, at car shows this summer (just in case your looking for me...).















Again, thanks a bunch to Kristy and Ray Green for the lead. Here's the link to order site:

SWEETNESS!

Eeny, meeny, miny moe,
Catch a tiger by the toe.
If he hollers make him pay,
Sixty-five dollars every day.

Hommage to Kristy's original rotor polka dot choice. As for you Jaimeqa - if you are out there, wherever you are - kudos to you and Keds!

If only they made a driving shoe. It is a little ironic that these shoes suck for driving thanks to the square heel and width.

Rotary shoes? Really?

I'd be embarrassed to be seen in these. No offense, but I'd think less of a man wearing these.

Perhaps it's just the "jar-head" in me?

To each his own.....

Comon guys, lighten up. This is a public service announcement, not advertising. Just another way to show the rotary love.

And yeah, if rotary sneakers are a threat to your masculinity, probably best to stick with the camoflage fatigues and Palin stickers.

Palin stickers! Awesome! Be careful, there are a few tea-baggers in the FB section.

Neither threatened nor a tea-bagger (well that was in the privacy of my own home...and I was the bagger, not the baggie). No camo (only wore it for work) or Palin sticker either....
Like I said to each his own....I wouldn't be caught dead in them.....but I do respect your right to dress however you like.
Wouldn't put my hair in a ponytail or carry a "man purse" either....but hey, it's all good.

I am with ya on the man purse, but if I don't have my hair in a pony tail I end up looking like a member of Winger...

Pat, what you want to see is Stu (Jeezus) in some rotary sneakers and a man-purse. That'd be enough to get me wearing camoflage and hanging out with the tea baggers.

But I agree, to each his own. And those sneaks come in about 5 different colors with six or seven different trim color options, which should be enough to make about 90% of us happy. It's the $65 price tag I'm having trouble with.

These eyes have seen a lot of terrible things.....I don't think they could handle that. (No offense Stu, but shoes, man purse, AND ponytail.....a man can only take so much)

Jaime definitely deserves the credit. I just happen to be a girl on the east coast who bought them. If I were a guy, I would only rock them all blacked out.

Glad you like my shoes guys!

I'm in the process of creating some black ones with white rotors. Hope you guys like them.

Once the content management team approves them, I'll post up.
