Once nearly caused a riot when someone reckoned his Fila trainers were better than my Reebok Pumps.

Heathen.

I have a set of green barbour wellies, lines with 3mm neoprene..ideal for keeping my feet warm when I', fishing....also have neoprene waders.

Aye, folding the logo was funny. Adidas Sambas were the rage at school for trainers i recall, the one's with the big flappy fold over tongue bit. And Farahs were the trousers for the discerning gentleman too.

If you don't own wellies, how do you wang :confused:

I distinctly remember the feeling of water going over my wellies as a child.

OK, showing my age now. Green flash plimpsoles, addidas tracky bottoms with elastic at the ankle (or a zip if you were really flash), duffle coat with my gloves on a piece of elastic and always, always, in posession of either a half made scoobie doo - the first time they came out, jacks, or those horrible clacker things that mangled your knuckles once you got them going.

Happy days....................................

It's a Korn song... isn't it?

Well considering I can vividly remember hearing it at my Primary School in Germany circa 1978 I would hope it pre-dates Korn by quite a few years :confused:

I used to have a pair of those frog wellies. They were great, and I still remember feeling gutted when the day came that they didn't fit me anymore
