What The Shoes You Wear On Campus Say About You

Let's face it, LSU students are not the most fashionable when it comes to class time. Most of us get dressed in the morning half awake and trying to remember if that math test is today or not. However, our shoes can help us express ourselves. As they say, shoes are the window to the sole. Whether you realize it or not, your shoes are telling your classmates something words, or your favorite bus trip t-shirt, never could. Are you a hipster or a normie? Where do you fall on the spectrum? If you're looking to get an understanding of your class crush or you're dying to know what others say about you, look no further. Here is a very serious, very informative, truthful guide to what your on-campus shoe choice says about you.

1) Adidas

You're borderline-hipster and you miss the 90's. People think you're shady.

2) Flip Flops

You have absolutely no self respect. You want your classmates to see your bare a** toes that probably haven't seen a pedicure since your middle school graduation. Go to the beach or go home.

3) Chacos


The srat version of flip flops.

4) Birkenstocks


You're a free spirit, you're laid-back, and you go wherever the wind takes you. Also you are literally a dirty hippie. Go blow your weed smoke in someone else's face!

5) Vans


You're different. You probably skate to class everyday on your long board while the normies walk. "I'm not like everyone else," you say as you light a cig after class, "and I also don't care that this is a tobacco-free campus."

6) Converse


You're an old soul. These shoes have been cool since the 50's, and you're a timeless kind of trendy. It's not the 50's anymore though so you're probably the "different" one who wore your converse to every high school dance, and plan on wearing the damned things to your wedding and your first child's birth. Next.

7) Asics


You follow the crowd. You don't want to make any waves. And you probably don't even run.

8) Slides


No one trusts you. You the type to slide up in any and everybody's DM's.

9) Sperry's


The more formal wear of frat dudes on campus. You probably have never even worn them on a real boat. But if you have, it was definitely the one your dad owns. These really say, "There's no lawsuit MY dad can't handle!"

10) New Balance

You take pride in who you are. New Balance not only test well with frat boys, but also with those 65 and over. These say, "You're either gonna love me or hate me. Pick one." Think about it: these shoes are worn by that frat star who made fun of you in middle school, your funny friend with ugly style, and your cheerful grandpa.


Hopefully now you know how the world sees you. Whether its opinion is good or bad, haters can back off! Take this knowledge and make waves with it! Unless you're wearing Asics -- then just stay put.
