you need a pair of kangoo jumps

people WILL initiate conversation with you. also its fun and good excersize. they act basicaly like springs on the end of your feet and allow you to jump higher and run faster and basicaly bound arround town like a kangaroo. they are kind of expensive though especialy if you are heavy. if you arent you can probably find a good pair on ebay. just dont get the ripoff brand.

i didnt mean for this to sound line an advertizement. I am in no way affiliated with Kangoo Jumps. i just bought a pair like a week ago and noticed how many people stopped me to ask about them.

Lol those look fun as hell. I’d expect to break a kneecap in a week.

If those fail, get a job in retail. They’ll break ya in a month or two.

In case you worry about breaking something with those kangoo boots, Vibriam Fivefingers are also shoes that let people start conversations with you.

Being professional means that you don’t do crazy stuff that get’s attention.  
You can overdress or you can toe the line of what’s acceptable.  
Fashion wise there isn’t that much that you can do.

In professional enviroment you however don’t have much need to chat to random strangers. You already have a professional reason to talk to people.
