Picked these up recently and they've been a great everyday pair so far. They look even better on foot than I expected, and the comfort has been a nice surprise.
How are you guys styling yours these days? Still mostly with baggy jeans, or are you wearing them with other fits too?
This isn't my actual breakfast—it's something I have before my main meal because it's an easy way to get more fiber, healthy fats, and protein into my diet.

Anything you'd add or change?
40kg incline DB press from today's push session.
Happy with how this one moved. 💪
Been working on making my squat more consistent and wanted some honest feedback.
If you were coaching this lift, what would you change first? Depth, bracing, bar path, stance, or something else?
I've always squatted high bar, so I'm also curious whether low bar might suit my build better. For those who've trained both, did switching to low bar help you squat more weight?
Hypothetical question.
Let's say you suddenly made life-changing money from crypto.
What's the smartest way to cash out in India without creating unnecessary problems?
I've read a lot about P2P-related bank freezes, large transactions getting flagged, and the challenges of withdrawing big amounts. It made me wonder how people who have actually been through this would handle it.
Would you:
\- Cash out gradually or all at once?
\- Use P2P, or avoid it completely for large amounts?
\- Stick to Indian exchanges, or use another approach?
\- Handle taxes and documentation in a particular way?
If you've dealt with large withdrawals before, what would you recommend—and what mistakes should people avoid?
I've been training for about 3 years.
Goal: Build muscle and get stronger.

Why I take these supplements:
Main question: Is anything here unnecessary? Any other supplements you'd recommend?
Ordered the Special Mandi at Girlfriend Mandi.
The fish fry and barbecue chicken were my favorite parts of the platter. There was a good variety overall.
For those who've been here, how would you rate it?
Also, if you know a better mandi place in Hyderabad, let me know. I'd love to try it next.
Made this with buffalo milk, 90% dark chocolate, cocoa powder, and sugar.
It turned out pretty good, but I think it can be better.
Would 75% dark chocolate work better than 90%?
Has anyone tried using dates instead of sugar? Or is there a better sugar substitute that still tastes good?
Any other tips to make it richer or creamier?
Thinking of trying one, but I'm confused.
For those who've had both, which brand does chocolate and butterscotch better?
Looking for honest opinions on taste, creaminess, and value for money.
I’m looking for a durable belt for casual wear. I see many premium brands (like Tommy Hilfiger) stamped as "Genuine Leather."
​
I know "Genuine Leather" is typically considered the lowest tier and prone to cracking or peeling, but does a recognized brand name actually mean better quality, or is it just paying for the logo?
​
Is there any reality where these last a long time, or should I skip fashion brands entirely and look for a dedicated leather shop for thick, full-grain leather?
​
Recommendations for full-grain leather belts available in India are welcome.
​
Saw these in store today and tried them on out of curiosity.
​
The fold-over tongue looked a bit odd in photos, but they looked much better on foot than I expected.
​
For anyone who wears them regularly, how have they been holding up?
Walked into the store with absolutely no plans to buy sneakers and somehow ended up spending 15 minutes staring at these.
​
The fold-over tongue looked a bit weird online, but seeing them on foot completely changed my mind. They look a lot better in person than they do in product photos.
​
For anyone who owns a pair, how are they holding up? Do you find yourself reaching for them often?
Picked up these red Gazelles a few weeks ago and honestly, I wasn't expecting to like them this much.
​
The more I wear them, the more I feel like Gazelles don't get nearly as much attention as Sambas.
​
Are you taking Gazelles or Sambas, and why?
​
Also curious — do you guys actually wear brighter colors, or do you mostly stick to black, grey, navy, and white?
For me it's probably face pulls.
​
I see a lot of people loading way more weight than they can control and then jerking the weight around until it ends up looking more like a row than a face pull.
​
What's the biggest ego lift you see people doing regularly?
Looking for honest feedback on this squat single from a recent leg workout.
​
Does the depth look okay?
​
Anything I should improve with bracing, bar path, or stance?
​
I've always squatted high bar. For those who've switched to low bar, did it help you squat more weight, and was it worth the switch?
​
Appreciate any feedback.
​
​
Finally picked up these Gazelles and honestly, I was not expecting to like them this much.
​
The more I wear them, the more I feel like Gazelles do not get nearly as much attention as Sambas. In my opinion, they are more comfortable, easier to wear for long periods, and not nearly as common as Sambas.
​
Gazelles or Sambas — which one are you taking, and why?
Looking for honest feedback on this squat set.
​
Anything obvious I should improve with depth, bracing, bar path, or stance?
​
Also, does my depth look consistent throughout the set?
​
Appreciate any feedback.
I personally love this colorway, but I'm not sure if I'm looking at it from a sneakerhead perspective or if it's actually a good everyday gift.
​
Would you be happy to receive these as a birthday gift, or would you go for a different color/model instead?
​
Especially interested in hearing women's opinions, but all feedback is welcome.
