Question Creeper Questions

Hey Gnet, I'm getting ready to buy a pair of creepers. The only thing that's really hindering my purchase is the fact that I know very little about the shoes, and I really don't want to find out that I wasted my money. That, is where you guys come in.

Does anyone here have any experience with creepers? How do they fit? Do they hold up well? Any major flaws or issues?

I was looking at a pair like this: http://www.rivithead.com/product_inf...roducts_id/411
I'm a little wary of those because of all the horror stories I've heard about Demonia footwear. Thanks in advance, you guys.

Well I dont know much about creepers, but I have three pairs of Demonias and I found them all to be great. The quality isn't amazing, but I wouldn't be climbing everest with them anyway ;D They'll last you years if you're just walking around town and going to clubs about once a week with them.

I have a pair of the black and white T.U.K creepers.
They're lovely shoes, you just have to keep them looking nice.
They can be uncomfortable at first, but they just need a bit of breaking in.

Good luck with them.

I have worn creepers pretty much on a daily basis for the past 15 years. I currently have about 15 pairs of them. I stick religiously with TUK creepers...but not their new "low end" ones. I have tried a pair of those, and they suck....although they are pricey, I would definitely recommend to stick to their "high end" line that is made in the UK. Demonia sucks bigtime. They are not too bad in the comfort department, but they are made very cheaply and do not last.

I still have my very first pair of TUK creepers that I bought when I was 16, and they are still in good shape and I still wear them (I'm 33 now).

I have had a couple pairs of Underground brand creepers, which were very comfy, but the soles on all of the pairs split after only about 2 years of wear, so I steer clear from them now.
