Sorry, new to trainers.

You won a draw to buy some trainers?
Because they’re so limited the resell for far more, a bit like flipping cars (GT4 anyone?)

So there’s huge demand to pick them up at £125 to flog them for 2/3/4/5 times as much... but don’t worry, mine are for wearing

Out of interest..

Will these be available in a store soon or is it just the raffle ?

How many pairs are made.

Deadstock now.

Offspring in Manchester released them secretly at 9am then made an instagram post. I’d been up till 3am, woke up at 0755 so was asleep when they posted it!

I hate you wink that is the Atmos Elephant you grabbed and these. Two of my all time favourite releases! Really though, nice one, it is clear you are a true sneaker head so at least that is one pair not gone to a reseller.

...Bought a pair of the Tinkers from eBay. Had to have them. Still sucking the air through my teeth at the price though.

Sorry, does this mean they will be available in the shops?

Starts with a 3 and ends with me opening another bottle. At least they'll go up in value... probably...

Potentially but more likely they'll be available as deadstock (unopened, unworn or as new and boxed) via auctions or collectors. JD Sports etc will have zero chance.

Trainer shop in Aberdeen had 200 pairs, they sold at 10am this morning.
Know a couple of young lads who queued from 2am and they were 160 odd in the line.
First I knew of queuing for trainers.

Guess you really wanted 'em!

Don't think I could bring myself to do that.

Thanks for the explanation. Will be keeping these for sure.

Love trainers but mainly into air max 90. I'll have to put a pic up of the pairs I own.. just need to figure out how to put pics up !

Managed to get yeezy powerphase after all, had some stock on footlocker. Wasn’t expecting to get a pair after no luck in the raffles.
