just got a set of these, massively comfy!

So, I saw a pair of trainers at the end of Christmas in Birmingham Airports duty free JD shop and I knew I should have purchased them there and then, but I didn't. Anyway, I haven't seen them since in any of the JD's in Brum and wondered if you guys had seen them around...

Similar to these (which I have already

) http://www.jdsports.co.uk/product/adidas-originals-indoor-tennis/88991/

But the upper is blue, not dissimilar to the OcUK colour, with red tubing and bottom sole, and the outer sole is white! Thanks.

What products does everyone use for protecting their trainers?

Or when I'm feeling tight, wet wipes work well on leather and soles, normal suede protector from shoe shops for suede and a toothbrush, warm water, tiny amount of washing up liquid for the leathers.

Also extreme violence.

Thorpy, I'd save those Lyle&Scott plimsolls for the summer.

Might as well let everyone see you're walking with Lyle&Scott on your feet than just letting everyone think its an average pair of red plimsolls.

And when you're not protecing your trainers' honour?

G|MP has some nice superstars.

I have some really old ones I still wear all the time and haven't bought a new pair of trainers in ages.

Should really get some new ones, superstars are by far my favorite trainer.

I'm not a fan but when the vast majority of people on OcUK describe something as "chavvy" what they actually mean is "popular"

G|mp · 23 Feb 2011 at 00:31

It is quite chavvy though nowadays, round here it is anyway.

Although I can often be seen sporting a L&S polo in the summer

Aquascutum is where it's at though boys
