| Melvin's right. They're pretty easy. ust get a block of wood, drill some holes, and send a string through. |

Thats plan B
If I cant buy any off line them Im just gonna steel some of my dads wood, a saw, a drill, and some string and ill make my own.
But I would much rather buy some authentic ones.
As for comfort Ive always wondered how wooden sandels would feel, they may turn out to be very comfortable.
Oh and when you walk it sounds really cool! |

Why the hell do you want to have a pair of Geta?(they were not exclusive to Samurai) It's a block of wood, of course they're frickin' uncomfortable! And they're not magical! They're not going to sound cool when you gots teh blisters.
Just get some Kung Fu shoes.

| Exactly my point. I mean, I enjoy anime, Japanese videogames, music, and film. However, that is not to say that I don't also enjoy the same stuff from other countries and the USA. The point is people should be more open minded and try to be themselves, not copying other cultures. Instead, I find it more interesting when people combine their lifestyles with many different cultures. |

I will so do a comic of this thread... XD XD XD
And for being honest, there is nothing wrong with copying other cultures and such. But going "OMG OMG OMG OMG" and overdoing it is not... good.

Unless you plan on using them for like, part of a cosplay costume. don't bother.
Samurai don't give two shits about comfort.
Oh wait you want to be japanese ^______________^ LOL I AM KNESHIN LOL. So don't bother.

I'm saying that it's not cool to copy others; because that shows weakness and dependency. I watch, read, and listen to things because I think that they are interesting, not because it is what other people find interesting.

| I don't think he is doing it to act japanese. I think he is just doing it to do it type of thing. I know if I wanted to I would. |

| He probably is not doing it to act Japanese, but what I'm saying is that why do something that is uncomfortable like that? What's the benefit? |

Ninja don't use Geto  . Ninja use Ninjutsu.. and Shuriken.. and cool stuff. Besides, I'd love to look/act Japanese if it'd mean I'd be different from the mainstream bunch o' radiolisteners that don't know how to spell "what". |

Nowadays even knowing how to (barely) throw a shuriken makes people call you a Ninja. And most 'Ninjas' I see nowadays just act like Ninjas because "Ninjas r kewl lol!1".
