  • Not entirely proper leather shoes but I have a pair of Crown sneakers, handmade in Northampton which I have hammered daily at work for over a year. I’m taking them to be re-soled at the factory tomorrow which fills me with glee; a non-disposable trainer. They’re like a pair of old slippers now and the patination is beautiful.

  • Love the thought of re-soling sneakers. Have you got a photo of yours?

  • What’s the quality of the uppers like? How many soles do you reckon they’ll get through?
    I also like the idea of non-disposable trainers but £75 Stan smiths make £60 sole changes seem unviable even with my finest man-maths.

    They look great. What do you do at work, out of interest? Think I might go for a pair. How's the sizing?
