The last time I was at my local Nike outlet there were BWs in Persian Violet, or whatever they call the purple colour. I'm not sure if they were as in-demand as I expected, for I distinctly remember hearing about their release and seeing them available months after. Next time I'm in, I must take a look and see what's available.

For some reason they weren't very popular, I love them and picked up a pair from footlocker a week or so after launch as I didn't know they were coming out.TopGear7 said:
Any Adidas NMD owners?
Are they comfortable? There are so many different colour ways. I really want the original black with the red bit but they've made those 'limited'.
Yep got NMDs, they are very comfy, but not on the same level as Ultraboost.Are they comfortable? There are so many different colour ways. I really want the original black with the red bit but they've made those 'limited'.
And yeah, I got the OGs, really hard to get hold of. If you want some follow sole supplier restocks on twitter and set up an alert. Hey don't come up that often, but I've seen a few recently

Hmmm. Ultra Boost is what I currently have and they're amazing, it's like wearing memory foam cushions on your feet. However I got the front caught on something and there's a small hole in the front mesh now. So replacement time. The NMD look much nicer though. Tough decision lol.
Still very comfy, I wear mine quite a bit (when the weather allows)42 pairs and counting...
Easy when you have size 5 feet, mind.
Air Jordan 6 infrared are my holy grail... I'll get them one day... But £250 for size 5s is brutal!
My Jordan flight were only £30.
Partial to Reebok Omni Lite pump too. Got a pair in white and a pair of reserve edition that look like Fozzy Bear's feet. I'll post them later!
I saw someone had posted cork air max earlier... I have cork blazer mids.
Puma disc are on my radar just now, as are new balance. I feel that pair 43 may be imminent!
It's an addiction!

I used to have a pair of Puma circats:
(Pic from the net) Bloody comfy they were. Great to drive in. Would do anything to get my hands on another pair. Been keeping an eye out on eBay etc but never seen any pop up. Anyone know where else I should be looking??
Ask at the local East European car wash. (Pic from the net) Bloody comfy they were. Great to drive in. Would do anything to get my hands on another pair. Been keeping an eye out on eBay etc but never seen any pop up. Anyone know where else I should be looking??

What's everyone using to protect their shoes?
CrepProtect worth a go?
I currently use Office branded protector which doesn't really help with cleaning dirt away.
SneakersER is supposed to be the best stuff. Tbh I've not used it yet, I'm a bit precious so only go out in my nice stuff when the weather is decent. Just wear some beaters if it's a bit crummy outside. I even carry beaters in the car in case I get somewhere and the weather had changed... sad isn't it? :wobble CrepProtect worth a go?

I'd love to have kids size feet for the savings but I imagine it would look odd as I'm 6ft5!
They stopped at a size 8 in the shops and a size 9 on the Vans website. When i enquited about them they said:
"Even though they are a unisex trainer that colour is aimed at the female market, hopefully you can find another style that you like."
I found them by going through the mens section too (given they are a unisex sneaker - as are most Vans) as it was listed as one of the colour choices
Oddly the custom shop would allow me to make a pair in my size that were barbie pink, but the midnight blue; seems to be one of the few colours that is/was not available.
