Title: Beach Boys shoes? Post by: kookadams on April 16, 2008, 08:24:32 PM This is an odd question but, does anyone know what kind of shoes the Beach Boys wore? We all know the Beatles wore "Beatle boots" but what about the Beach Boys? In their early photos it looks like they're usually wearing some sort of leather loafers, and in their later photos it looks like Bruce might be wearing Keds and it looks like Brian was particular to Adidas during the 70s. Can anyone elaborate on this?

Pete knows all the treacherous blows The fallen arches and the cramp in the toes He went to H. E. L. P. and got some sandals new And dusty old saunas too Take a load of your feet Pete You better watch out what you eat Better take care of your life 'Cause nobody else will Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes?

Al wore white velcro sneakers in the 80s. Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes?

Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes? Post by: Alex on April 18, 2008, 10:35:12 PM Does it really matter what shoes they wore?
Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes? Post by: kookadams on April 19, 2008, 09:15:14 AM I was just wonderin, cuz it seems like everyone knows that the Beatles wore Chelsea boots, so I was wonderin' what the Beach Boys wore; I always saw that they wore some kinda loafers in the 60s.
Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes? Post by: the captain on April 19, 2008, 09:52:50 AM Wow, I can honestly say that it has never occurred to me to even begin to consider what kind of footwear anyone wore. Celebrities, friends or family. It has never crossed my mind.
But now it has. And next, I hope we discuss their underwear. ::) Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes?

Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes? Post by: SloopJohnB on April 20, 2008, 09:09:51 AM I think Mike made fun of Brian in the 70s or 80s because he had plain, black shoes, much like the cheapest ones you can find at K-Mart.
And next, I hope we discuss their underwear. ::) According to Mike, Al has never changed his underwear since 1965 :D Title: Re: Beach Boys shoes?
