As I said before not my thing but find it interesting that you have a concept and give it a proper go. They look well produced so nice one!

Work with suede much?

Thanks,

I have a couple of times, recoloured some Timberlands
Did my nike subaru's
Had some geox 'suede' shoes and trainers with it, used the suede paint on them but it never seems to dry and rubs off on your fingers. So end up throwing them away.

Why, are you thinking of recolouring something?

Yeah have a pretty tatty/dirty pair of Adidas Haven, wouldn't mind a black sole on them (foam sole) with a darker blue upper!

I will never, ever, re-colour suede trainers again. Life is too short.

Saw some lads set up camp outside Size? at lunchtime today waiting for the Barcelona 99’s to be released tomorrow.

[Rawwr]

Don't question me.

Needed some retail therapy after the rugby so bought some carbon black core I-5923 Boosts (bargain at £45), some turquoise/grey Nike Internationalists and a CP Company Cristal overshirt in blue.

I don't own a pair of Jordans of any description but I really want the Blue the Great ones released soon.

I'd appreciate those uninterested in them entering on my behalf in size 9.

Right, I've after a pair of retro hiker style trainers. Been dithering over these for too long.

Help me pick!

With the first pair, I'd replace these laces with round, yellow hiker style.

Thought you'd already bought the Vans?

[TheJimi]

No, couldn't make up my mind about them.

Still can't!

Of the 3 I'd probably go for the middle Merrells.

Really hope to get a pair of Nike x Kendrick Lamar React Element 55, will be my first pair of Reacts if I can get them but I have a funny feeling there will be several L emails. Anyone else going for a pair?

Went for my usual size, are Reacts a true to size or smaller fit?

Thanks

Aye, that's what I'm leaning towards. You should feel them in hand. Amazingly light considering how they look - 842g.

Merrell's air system too.

Edit: Just weighted my NASA MTEs - 518g

Not sure if the specials are different but i went up half a UK size on my element 55's - but they show an even larger step up in Eur sizing.
Normally I'm a UK9 / Eur43.
My element 55's are UK9.5 / Eur44.5

Everyone chooses the react 87's over the 55's unless Kendrick Lamar puts his name to them.....

Can you tell me what model those are and where you saw them please - had a quick hunt and can't find them but I really like them!

I don't want them so I'll enter for you.
