Anyone into trainers/sneakers?

If you think the resale is crazy on the Yeezy Boosts, these VLONE x Nike Air Force 1 released the other day and the going price is £1300-1500 already

These are awesome AF1s. Can't believe they've gone to that price though

[roystinho]

Just picked up some Adidas Inikis, I wasn't gonna get them but after I missed out on the Air Max 97s last week thought these would be a good pick me up. I think they look really good, a better mix of vintage with a modern twist than the Stan Smith boosts

I have leant towards Adidas for the last few years and mainly the superstar...maybe 30 different incarnations right now. AF1's are great and that pair above look glorious. Question is where is the best place to find out where/when the next special pair will drop? Always on the hunt for special superstars though if you come across any please point me in the right direction.

Thanks

I use solesupplier.co.uk and thedropdate.com, plus signed up to loads of shops Instagram accounts

Is the heel really that thick ?

It looks thick on that photo, but in real life it's fine. I'm a bit of a boost fan at the minute, like the look and feel when you wear it. I'll grab a pic next to a pair of Ultraboost when I get chance

[roystinho]

Sizing compared to NMD, Ultraboost, EQT 93/17... EQT has by far the most, they're super comfortable. Iniki and NMDs are pretty similar, and from a quick walk around the house feel the same, so not quite as comfy as Ultraboosts or 93/17s

Got there in the end, had to turn off my Add Blockers

Can't believe I missed out on the black waffle racers for £35ish

You could get those for £35?! They're a strange silhouette; I can't explain what it is that makes them so appealing, but they are.

Waffle racers are cool as

What's the sizing like on EQT RF?

My Ultra Boosts are a UK7 and fit me 'perfectly'.

Thinking of the above.

Really switched over to Adidas of late. Got about 40+ pairs of Nike/Asics!

Don't know about the RFs, but both my recent EQTs (advs and 93/17s) are half a size up

To add, they're a great looking trainer

[roystinho]

So we managed to film a video of the Inikis last night, as always, any feedback appreciated

Also if you like the stuff we do give us a subscribe and a share, not that it really matters as we have a ball making them and we buy trainers for ourselves, not the videos anyway. Just nice to share and interact more than anything

As in, you've had to buy 0.5 size bigger because they came up small?

Sorry, yes. I've bought half a size bigger (well didn't in the 93/17 as had to just get them online, if I'd have had chance to try on I think I'd have got an 8, not the 7.5 I've ended up with)

Anyone manage to grab the triple black boosts yesterday? The drop date had them up as an online release at offspring for 12:00. Kept refreshing the page for 10 minutes then they changed to in store only! Absolute gutter.

I'm not a fan of triple blacks, but tried to get them for my YouTube partner in crime - impossible it seems

I didn't realize it was release day until it was too late, offspring was the only retailer left. Doesn't help there aren't any stores in Scotland.

Resale values for the triple whites aren't too bad so here's hoping the blacks go the same way.

I think you'll be disappointed. Triples whites are still sitting on shelves...

Failed on the Air Max 1 OG release today

[roystinho]

The spezial range is tasty. I like the Trainer SPZL



And also the Atlanta

[roystinho]

It's because Size? advertise all these amazing trainers and then you can never get them. If you follow any staff eBay accounts though you're fine getting them for inflated prices

Thats how most releases are now. Stores 'backdooring' to themselves, friends and family. Lots of people using those auto-checkout bot programmes too.

The main reason why I just cant be bothered with it all anymore.

I agree completely. I wouldn't however, foam at the mouth like some people are.

There isn't much point getting worked up about it but it is incredibly frustrating!

This. I don't get too upset, but it is really annoying when you can't get the trainers you want. The last 3 pairs I've tried to get have been nigh on impossible.

What really gets me is the companies that hype everything up but have hardly any stock... I don't see the point

[roystinho]

To add, just checked the Paris Gazelles and they're all online with Size at the minute

Got my hopes up until

Stores will be getting a restock for the morning I believe if you've got one nearby

Anyone have any joy with the Paris release?

I tried on the app and didn't get any joy!

They released again in the afternoon and I managed to cart some, but then decided against it as I think they look a bit naff personally. If they'd have had a gum sole...

Still not managing to get any of the Air Max 1s, atmos this weekend so will be after those big style

[roystinho]

Anyone got some adidas pureboost? I think they're really underrated

How can a shoe be underrated out of interest?

Because all the ones that are completely hyped sell out in seconds online (things like Ultraboost, NMDs and Yeezy), these are of the same ilk but for some reason people don't go crazy for them.

Doesn't bother me really, I like them so just means they're easier to buy
