Adidas trainers

Fri Apr 13, 2018 7:11 pm

Are they still the ones? Don’t know if I’m just gett8ng old or bored with the slight monotonous look of them. Still got around 20 pairs, including some rare old New York’s, Hamburg’s, jeans, forest hills etc but a lot of the ones I seen of late aren’t doing it.
Would love a trip to to Argentina to explore that old shop in Buenos Aires, don’t even bother looking in MAC Glenn Adidas shop anymore as it’s so bad, bolwells in Blackwood was a nice trip back in the day...... :bluescarf:

I threw out my Adidas "Cardiff" trainers they released a few years ago.

I had worn them into the ground though.

How the hell do people keep theirs so immaculate? I refuse to NOT wear them, don't see the point.

I much prefer Samba, though choice of colour always seems quite limited, so haven't bought any in a while.

Gazelles definately offer a much wider range of colours.

Also like the variety of colours with the Adidas Jeans though no logo on the heel turns me off those a little bit.

I bought a few pairs over the years but never have i found them as comfortable as a pair of running trainers. At 51 its now all about comfort and i`ll leave the others to the kiddies
