New Trainers

spoonjaffa · 29 Jun 2009 at 21:45

"These" are ZX 700 - quite a common retro trainers.

Those "bad boys" are quite unique, not my taste but some good detailing.

Found some more im tempted by - http://www.footasylum.com/ADIDAS-Bucktown-ST-Trainer-P017130/

Quite a few nice trainers out there if you go searching. I've prob bought 1 pair of trainers in the last 5 years!! They were the KSwiss and they lasted 2 months (from walking). I've been using my brothers Globes i nicked and some nice Puma rs1 re-issues he got free! Anyways about time i buy some shoes that arn't walking boots or golf shoes, although at this rate i'll have 5 new pairs by the end of the week!!

Which ones? Any others I should consider?

Both are nice. If you are into Forest Hills then those Black / Limes ones are a must buy. Really trying to keep myself from buying them to add to the other 3 Ive got

Those Red Gazelle's look superb. If they are your thing, they are also a must buy

Just buy both and be done with it

Get them bought! How much are they anyway?

Unfortunatly Im a size 9 like the rest of the population

Youstolemyname · 29 Jun 2009 at 22:45

They were actually in the sale, think they were £30~ish quid!

Blank tongue, gold stripes, yellow sole. That's the boys isn't it?

Bennah · 29 Jun 2009 at 22:49

You mean these? http://size.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10701_11551_19331_191604_-1_footwear

The 'Away Days' version had it wrote on the tongue iirc. Plus it came with a signed copy of the book. Very rare indeed. Only 9 pairs came to Size? Manchester. They were sold out even before the shop opened. I was already in a queue by the time I got there about 9.20am

Youre right, they do. Wasn't the Awaydays version then...

Nothing exciting then today although I did find a gem of a collection of Adidas in the Foot Asylum concession within Drome in Liverpool One. Nowt in my size but some good sale stuff there...

Bennah · 29 Jun 2009 at 23:05

Everytime Ive been in FootAsylum, Manchester, there is nothing special in there. Always sell the normal stuff tbh.

Youstolemyname · 29 Jun 2009 at 23:14

http://www.transalpino.co.uk/index.asp has some belting stuff but it's just a shame their shop is in such a rubbish location in the centre of Liverpool...

Apok · 30 Jun 2009 at 00:46

Is what i'm wearing at the moment basically, but it does depend on the clothe's that i'm wearing with them, i like my outfits to "flow".

Not sure whether to grab another couple of cheap pairs of plimsolls for different outfits, white etc.

Or actual different colour laces cause I'd like that as well

But straight laced for sure with supes

You sir are a legend. Get down to that shop and see what they've got. Shame there isn't one in Manchester

I've been a few times but it's a bit out of the way to get to when you are shopping in the city center. They don't have anything on top of the stock that's already on the website.

We should all pool our trainer buying websites. Here's mine, excluding the obvious like size? JD and manufacturers stores:

You guys may be able to help, i'm desperately after a decent pair of grey suede gazzeles, does anyone know anyone doing them at the moment?

Youstolemyname · 30 Jun 2009 at 09:56

They did issue them in grey not so long back Gurdas. Have a search through the links I posted above and if none of them have them then probably an auction site.
