You'd be rolling the hems to show the selvedge anyway wouldn't you? Get a 32" leg and see how it is. Easy returns process or get them adjusted.
No wouldn't roll the hem, could still get them adjusted just makes them nearer £50 all in and I can just buy a pair that fit elsewhere for that!
Fair enough.

Give them a go when the shops open again with their free adjustments.

They're good jeans.

Out of interest, where do you get similar jean for £50 from? Always struggled to find a suitable alternative at this price-point. Cheers!

What shoes and size are they as If they are rare/in demand would change the options of where to sell them.
Two pairs of Adidas & two ASICS - 10’s & 11’s. My friend has way too many which won’t get worn so need to move them on.

And then I, sorry I mean my friend, will be able too buy more Lego!!!

Took advantage of END's extra 20% off sale stuff and got a couple of new runarounds (I don't have any dedicated 'tatty' trainers for mucking about in, so these will become them). Got them for £28 each which is great considering RRP is about £100.

Adidas Consortium Lexicon (they are a bit naff in person but will keep them for their purpose)



Adidas Tephra Runner (Yes they are women's, so they are a little bit of a tighter fit but are pretty comfortable and look good so might actually try taking care of them)

Cheers, was going to say there isn't much competition for Uniqlo in this space on the high street.

I obviously don't own the uniqlo pair so have no idea what the quality is like!

Primary £10 jeans last me about 6 months for work and don't look too bad! Try them when shops are open, massive range of sizes, problem is you have to go in there!!

Are they the Numeric 574, or whatever the New Balance name is for their skate shoe line? From that photo it looks quite an elegant shape. Hopefully it feels as good on!
Yes, 574 Cross-coasts(?)

They’re quite narrow, love the look of them though.

I'd be interested in the 11s dependent on what they are and price...

On the theme of going with anything I just picked up these Zoom Air Jordan 1 Craters for less than Dunk money.

Actually pretty comfy, chunks of recycled bottle tops in them so I'm basically saving the planet by buying them!

Little bit more snug than regular Jordan’s though. I wish I went up 1/2 a size with these.

Got myself onto an adidas FB page in the past few days, my word some of the prices are ridiculous. Tahitis went for over 300 and some Ardwicks that were only 7/10 condition (realistically they were probably an 8) went for £710. I sold some gumsole Gazelles to a mate a few weeks ago because I needed the space, BNWT and I only asked for £35, could have got £100+ on there easily, might have to have a dig around and see if I can find my other BNWT pairs, might get a decent price for some.

I like trainers but for me I like to wear them, no point paying £200+ for them to sit in a box in your house, I'd rather buy a nice £70 pair to wear.

What page is this? I have a lightly worn pair of Hawaii and Gazelle Super, as well as a few things that have never ventured outside of their boxes. If there's absurd money like that going round I might just have to cull the herd a bit.
