Just got them today, pretty sweet. Never skated Adidas before.

I absolutely love these. I do like Retro looking trainers and despite rarely wearing any red clothing, I really like red trainers.

I once saw a pair of red Adidas shoes (much different from these) in a shop in Vancouver while on vacation that really caught my eye. They were quite expensive so I didn't buy them. But upon returning home, I search and searched online for these shoes, trying to find them at a better price but couldn't find them AT ALL! Only in blue or black, which I didn't want. All this searching made me realize that I really wanted them and would now pay the price I saw them for at the shop. Obviously the next time I returned to Vancouver a few years later they weren't there. But I'm like you and rarely wear red clothing, seems to attention-getting for me. But I LOVED these shoes. Couldn't remember the name but some 10 minutes of dedicated web searching revealed that they were called Trophy TR. Here they are in black, imagine in red with white stripes. This is the ONE picture available of them online in any color.

Do it! Your age doesn't matter. I wish I could buy this Slayer X-mas sweater but I think they're already all sold.

On topic, I just bought these.

jackhammer 11-21-2012 07:19 PM

That sweater is genius but I haven't worn a sweater in 20 years so it's not my thing but what a Christmas jumper!

I genuinely do need some new trainers and just found these and really like the look of them:
Buy Converse Mens Star Player Rune Pro Mid Trainers Bluebird/Cyan at MandMDirect.com

Clothing wise I am quite safe and usually stick to Jeans/ T shirt combo in black or white (occasionally Red) but when it comes to trainers I will wear all sorts of colours and designs.

As for the Maiden shoes I am completely torn :(

I would buy them. Even if you end up being too self-conscious to wear them, they scream Collectors' Item.

That's what I was thinking too. Even at Metal festivals I have never seen anyone with a pair on and I constantly check out peoples footwear for some reason and no I don't have a foot fetish.

jackhammer 12-06-2012 06:27 PM

Just bought myself a pair of these. I love the colour even though I haven't worn Adidas for years.

Dude, do it. **** anyone who would make fun of you for it. They'd just be secretly jealous that they didn't have a pair of their own anyway. Although, a pair of Witchfinder General shoes would be even better.

Here are the trainers I bought around 3 weeks back. Yes I know I have posted these before but now u have a pic and everyone who has seen them has loved them at work :)

I would personally never wear them but I like the idea. They also released a Vol. 4 design a while back

I agree, I wouldnt wear them either. Nice idea though.

I was gonna get some flyknits for summer the other day, thought I'd go to bed and do it in the morning, reduced to 70 quid with a code I had would have been about 50. Code didn't work in the morning, was really disappointing.

Without the Black Sabbath logo the Volume 4 shoes would be epic. I don't need it to be obvious, I just want that dude from the cover on my shoes.

I would TOTALLY wear these. So I googled them... $90. I can't afford that right now, and even if I could I won't spend $90 on Chucks, even those.

I heard that guy goes by the name Ozzy Osbourne, whoever that is. I think the design just looks like a paint splatter on the shoe.

Yeah I think the Paranoid graphic works best on a shoe. Also, I think black rubber may have worked better on these.

I like that. The colours and the fabric looks quite good. Vans are my favorite type of shoes as well.

Na, very dark (slim fit) jeans, dark polo, goes smart. I have these, they're similar:

Also, I just noticed these... what the hell?

I rate a fair few of those. Air Max 1's, suede Puma's and most of the Adidas. Not Stan Smiths though, nothing particularly bad about them just think it might be cos my P.E. teacher wore them.

Not bad. I had written off the Air Max as a strange 80s relic.

Yeah the vac techs are smart, in general they are overpriced tat though imo, they look decent for a week or two but wear down way too quickly, and they retail at £100ish?

That's one of the reasons why I like Adidas shoes, can pick up Gazelle Indoors for 50 quid and they last for ages and look mint provided you don't wear them in the rain and ruin the suede.

I like the 95's as well also but only in their original colourway - http://6.kicksonfire.net/wp-content/...54970-174.jpeg
