Trainers

Nice - I've seen a few pairs of those I like, always thought they looked really comfy.

I know what you mean about the jeans though - got a couple of pairs that look wrong with "normal" jeans, I feel like a walloper rolling them up too - wrong side of 40 for that shit! Incidentally those futurepacers are one of them "darling, be a dear & fetch my skin tight lycra jeans"

Veja? They have some black options.

@ltc Immediately thought they were Janoskis. Nice find

I'd not thought of Veja, I quite like the high tops but they aren't something I'd normally go for. Maybe I need to be more adventurous!

I've shown these to my little 13 yo skate rat nephew who is very interested and the right size but they are probably out of his paper round price range

Sorry if this is a bit cheeky but do you by any chance have any similar sized dunks you'd be happy to sell for a bit less? Can be in pretty poor condition as he will end up trashing them skating :-)

Cariuma All Black Canvas OCA LOW (or high)
Don't know if they are fully vegan (glue may or may not be) but they are high on my list.

Thanks, I'll add them to the list! I quite like the high version of those as well although they're quite spendy, any idea of the quality? I don't mind spending that sort of money on something that'll last a few years.

No idea I'm afraid. But yeah, for that price they'd better last a good while

Also have a look at clae and saye, they both do vegan.

Was in adidas store in Manchester and saw these and was intrigued. The hiking boots are the women’s colourway, much nicer than the black with orange reflective men’s and the flouro runners have a weird almost 3D printed honeycomb sole..

Fashion hikers. Ain't gonna be doing anything rough in them!

I think you’ve got me confused with someone who gives a fuck and actually uses their footwear for the described purpose. If I buy them (and with the price they currently cost that’s no certainty) I’m going to be poncing about in them in london when it’s a bit damp.

that blue/white/black thing is what people wear when they break their ankle skiing.
whats wrong with a nice pair of jogging pumps or plimsoles?

On the dad trainer front.. Saucony Jazz are my choice. Generally available for buttons, comfy, colourful and not NB.

I wasn’t of Nike x parra collab until I saw this hand painted bike shoes but now I really want some of the trainers. £240 though and too nice to wear

Also when did Nike get so damn small?
Can’t even get these 11s on my feet. Back they go for a 12

They should list the last the shoe is built around on the box so you can tell what the real size will be on your foot. Nike factory samples have all that detail on a hang tag and I know I range from 9.5 to 10.5 depending on the shoe. Blazers are snuggggg

Almost almost almost pulled the trigger on these today, but I don't think I'd wear them very much, I'd probably just sit them on the box and look at them 😂

They are nice like

Surprisingly, no interest in these UK6 Dunks I'm selling.

Anyone got any suggestions on where to sell them? Not used StockX before, is it worth it?

Depop. But I just outsource selling to my 14 year ago old niece for a cut.

Anyone have any idea how Karhu Legacy 96 size up to New Balance?

No idea, along with saucony and diadora yet to take the leap.

Something holding me back...

Every pair of Karhus that I’ve had have come up pretty small, they seem to have a pretty tapered toe so not ideal for a wider foot. I pulled the trigger on a pair of Walsh’s the other day and have to say the quality and comfort is WELL worth the money, head and shoulders above saucony/NB etc

Nike and other brands are cancelling all product orders to some retailers in USA from now till summer 22 as they just don't have enough shoes due to COVID supply chain issues.
The fact it will turbocharge their direct to consumer model is obviously just an unfortunate coincidence.
