Not all of us!

If you gave me a pair for free, I still wouldn't wear 'em

Did anyone go for the React 55 Kendrick Lamar?

Managed to cop a pair from SNEAKRS.

Sizes available at Offspring.

Only sizes up to 6 now.

Not sure which ones I want more:

[Gameface]

I've always had a soft spot for Huaraches.

Nike Internationalist.

[Gameface]

I-5923 Core Black.

Wanted some more black sole Boosts. Bargain at less than half price.



(The photo makes them look a bit grey in places. In reality they are jet black all over).

I like the style of I-5923’s, but they are fking horrible to wear. They make my big toes ache and I don’t like that stty floppy upper with zero support. The boost is comfy mind.

Did you stay TTS, as this may be part of the issue I have.

[Gameface]

I've had the same issue in the past when using my other pairs heavily (Hawaiian Thunderstorms and Prides) but I won't be doing big miles in these so hopefully it won't be an issue again.

Yeah I went TTS and they fit well.

Have to say I'm liking the react 55 KL. Always thought the large swoosh ruined the reacts a little, so it's good it's very discreet on these. Should be turning up tomorrow.

Having regretted the colourway of my recent Asic Gel Numbus running shoes I picked these up today. Looking forward to putting them through thier paces on a quick 5K parkrun tomorrow. First impressions, very light, decent quality and very comfortable.

Ive got several pairs on On's (Clouds x2, Cloud Swifts, Cloud Race one), theyre ace and you shouldnt be disappointed.

Prefer the normal Clouds to the swifts due to the camber of the shoe. Great commuter/walking around shoe as well

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

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!

Well these arrived today but they're going back. I don't like them, plus having ordered my usual size they are way way too big.

They don't look much like the picture in the flesh, they are much more suede/nubuck but more importantly they look like a hiking boot but just with a different sole, not a slightly trainer-ish boot which is what I wanted.

I think I want something halfway between these two - any ideas anyone?

[Jordan210]

Not my cup of tea but AF-1 Karabo by you are ib sneakrs

[Rawwr]

Got them for you Gameface.

[Rawwr]

And a good job, too, because they appear to have sold out in zero time.

These -



Pretty much exactly what you're after. I haven't had the ones you bought in hand, but I've handled the Ontario Mid 85 above.

Look at Vans Ultrarange too.

Nike Lunar Force 1?

Just ran a 5K park run and the On's didn't dissapoint. Quite nice for driving too.
