Could anyone tell me how Adidas Gazelles size compared to a Nike AM90 or 1.

FYI End Clothing has Scarlett and Blue Gazelles down to £49, seem to be most sizes too.
The ones you refer to are a true fit (Gazelle Super) but if you get Gazelle OGs then I'd go half or a full size up

Can anyone help me...few years back I had a pair of Adidas, the had a very very thin sole, so were not the best for long walks, and the 3 stripes went diagonal over the top of the front of the shoes. Mine were a tan colour but you could also get them in white. I loved them as they looked great.

Unfortunately when I moved out I left them at home and Mum threw them out. Would love another pair but they wont be any around anymore I reckon.

Adidas Mactelo. Fairly sure they don't do them anymore.

whats the deal with the AM97 release today. I thought they were released some time earlier in the year. Either way I tried a few online shops and sold out in 15 seconds. Nike still has them in though.

Gents, where is the best place to buy limited edition Adidas (Sambas / Gazelles, etc).

I saw some lovely blue / yellow Hamburgs I think, I don't want to buy from eBay really ...

Also where can I sign up so I know what is coming out!

I use the sole supplier website, the drop date and sign up to loads of stores on Instagram

Retailers like JDPLC (JD Sports, Size? and Scotts Menswear), Sneakers N Stuff, Oi Polo and END Clothing often have the limited releases. The Hamburg was released in blue with yellow stripes (the traditional colours of the Adidas Stockholm) and yellow with blue stripes (the traditional colours of the Adidas Malmo) at different times since being reissued in 2014.

The problem is that both colours have been and gone; the Hamburg came out in a lot of the City Series colours, making them a much more affordable way to buy a shoe similar to the one you want. Your best bet is going to be eBay if you want a straightforward answer, but you may be able to get a pair through some of the Facebook groups for buying/selling Adidas trainers. The only issue is that I don't follow any of the groups, so you may need someone else at this point.

Just picked these up in the sale at at Urban Industries, hadnt heard of them before but a mate just messaged me. Decent store and they remove VAT from the item at checkout if you are from a VAT free country like me so £74 delivered. First pair of the month as well and first AM Zeros for me. Hoping the next will be AM1 Premium SC Jewel in either colour.

I've got these exact ones. Bought them when I'm missed out on the 97s before xmas, really comfy and look great. I'll definitely have more Zeros

Tried to have a go at getting those AM97's yesterday but missed them in my size at JDs.

I think it's time for a new pair regardless, so need some advice guys.

Have stuck to a few pairs of 90's for a couple of years now, and when I went back to wearing my older 95's I found that at the very back the top of the trainer rubs the back of my right foot, literally to the point of bleeding. It seems to be a slightly different shape to the 90 and "digs in" a little more. Anyone else have this?

Really torn between getting some 95s for a change, but really don't want to spend £115 on something that ends up knacking my foot!

Also, where's good to get TNs other than Foot Locker? I'm thinking about a pair of them but Footlocker don't have the ones I want.

90s, 95s or TNs?
90s, 0s and 1s all have pretty much the same feel. 95s, 97s and TNs seem to feel narrower and tighter in the heel. If I was in your shoes (ho ho), I'd look at getting a pair of ID 90s. At least that way you can get what you want. I bought some 90 Hyperfuse ID with a Lunarlon sole a couple of years ago and they're wonderful smile
