It’s Danny winklaugh

The Safari are a classic, but personally not a massive fan. I just can’t see what I’d wear them with that would work...
My apologies Danny, I own worse already so no problems there laugh

Excuse the appalling picture but these are my day to days

The insole in Forest Hills is st. Great looking trainers though with the the yellow sole.

Has spezials in the past.

Forgive my ignorance, but what's being released in March?
See Danny’s (royhstino) post above regarding the spezial range!

Google/ YouTube search Gary Aspden, his trip to Argentina is something spezial (see what I did there).

All started 4/5 years ago with limited run releases. Basically in March he will drop 5-7 trainers and up to 10 pieces of clothing all based on past Adidas models and also people who are into and influential in terrace culture/Adidas now!

Hope that makes sense gives you an idea!
Dunno what came over me there! Brain fade.

I've had spezial model trainers in the past and I've got the Ardwick Spezial jacket at the moment.

Question for you guys who collect sneakers.

Do you buy them in you correct foot size or is there an optimal size for reselling or just get what you can ?

Not planning on starting a collection was just wondering really.

I imagine people who collect only buy in their own size, but then all mine are wearers. Would I buy a pair just to own if they didn’t fit? Highly doubt it.

Resellers just buy anything they think they can con other people out of more money for, doesn’t matter on size etc (for what it’s worth, I hate the reselling game, just morally wrong for me, like buying concert tickets to sell at higher value, and selling drugs to kids, so you see the level of hate)

I always buy in my size as I wear every pair I own. I don't really like speculating on stuff as I get annoyed when other people do it, causing the real collectors to miss out.

I would never buy a pair of trainers I wouldn’t wear, so my size only! I actually think the re-sell fad is dying down a bit, thank goodness!

Unless there is a pair on sale or limited that is only available in 1 size up as I usually put inner soles in anyway to keep the shoe fresh!

Never bought any size other than my own. Never entered my head to do so.

I wasn't that fussed about the SWs but now that I've seen more picture of them, I think I'll try for a pair. I mean, I won't get lucky in the draw obviously but I'll try smile

I'm also going to attempt to get a pair of the PG2s tomorrow because they look awesome biggrin

I'll be attempting to get these too... not holding much hope though.

Well that's the PG2 draw entered. Now we wait for the inevitable disappointment.

Ditto, thanks for trying though! I'm sure I'll be able to get a pair from eBay in about 5 minutes for £400.
