New Trainers

Participant · 25 Feb 2010 at 16:38

Anyone know where to get these Adidas Chile 62 cheaper than £65?

Any suggestions as to other shoes with similar styles, i.e. outdoor trainers bordering on smart casual?

Has anyone got a picture of themselves wearing them?

Thanks

I Bought a black pair of Chile's with yellow stripes and green trim about 4 years ago for £25 but gave them away as I never wore them. Wish I hadn't now.

Cup 68's are very similar and cheaper than the 60 - 70 being asked for Chile's

Haha, you have no idea. These shoes are gorgeous. Based on an all time classic Adidas. They also shine/reflect light when you shine a light on them. Probably worth something ridiculous now!!

I love these shoes. I've never worn them and i probably won't as there's not an awful lot that will go with them lol, but the cw and everything is spot on!! One of my all time favourite Adidas runners.

I'm sure they're worth a lot to a gay fitness instructor from 1982!

The problem with air max shoes these days is they seem to be the favourite choice of chavs. Which is annoying when you spend £95 - £110 on a pair of air maxs. There's also quite a lot of fakes around so that could be why.

I actually had the exact pair you posted in red and white around four years ago and they were very comfortable.

Nice superstar vintages. What was the release date on these? I've got the original snakeskin vintage, bought in '06 i believe?

This isn't my picture but these are the shoes!

Chiz · 26 Feb 2010 at 15:01

1982 - Nothing wrong with that. The majority of trainers you buy are based on models around or even before that time.

.. let me guess - you wear DC's or something right? Naw, it's total the person's own taste. That's what make trainers so diverse and just amazing!!

What your favourite pair? i'm interested to see.

Even though AM's are the Chav's Choice, they won't know where to go and get the latest colourways and limited edition ones, so it's still really easy to seperate from them.

I find superstars and anything after air max 90's are sported by chavs ALL the time. It's quite depressing!

THis thread should be called :

"The official Adidas trainers thread"

Chiz · 26 Feb 2010 at 15:05

Haha, true. Where's the Nike love? The New Balance love?

Gourmet are releasing a couple new shoes/trainers at Hanon-shop. These things are super limited, and made by the best creative minds who were involved with Adidas/Nike/Stussy i believe....

Anyone heard of the brand 'Creative Recreation'? They do some interesting shoes, something abit different:

Chiz · 26 Feb 2010 at 15:17

Yeah i've heard of them.

Never a fan of hybrids though. Trainers should be trainers and shoes shoes, you know.

Gourmet Quattro UNDFTD. I think this is SO CLEAN!!!!
