Hey, I wear a size 13.5 too! (in DC - w/ Nike I'd be 14.5) But hey, you know what they say about guys with big shoes... :naughty

my favorite shoes and thus the ones i drive in are New balance running shoes, specifically the trail running series. By far the most comfortable shoe i've ever worn. Plus if i ever put my car in a ditch somewhere i can run up the nearest trail to safety.

Yea I wanna get another pair of New Balance soon. The converse I have are damn ugly on me. I had to get low ones cause I could barely get my foot in the high ones. Only look half decent with pants.

I cant seem to find out if it is in LA. Id assume it is though since LA always get crappy laws.

The only problem I have with the Converse is that (if I remember correctly) Paul Walker wore them in The Fast and the Furious. Well, I guess they're allowed to do one thing right... I haven't had a chance to wear them with shorts yet, as I got them Christmas, but I wouldn't think it'd look too awful, and for that pedal-feel I just don't care. I thought my feet were big... oh well... I wear a 13, except for the Converse, which run huge, as they are 12s and are still big! Anyway, I still say, hands down, All Stars are the greatest.

Speaking of paul walker, he supposedly has a redonkulously rediculous Skyline GTR, that ISNT riced out.
