£89 plus the postage no idea what cost that would be but i would let you know before i sent them. I have a 9 in the Sonic Pumas and do the insole thick sock trick too!

Yeah ok thanks let me know! I don’t have pay pal btw, so not sure how you wanna do it? I’m in the SE not sure where you are?
If you wanna pm me we can sort it out.

They were big news in the 80s breakdancing days. I couldn't afford them back then. I had to have them though, even 33 years later.

They are pricey now!

Forgot to mention whilst I was out yesterday in Manchester. Triple white UB Climas at the cheapest I’ve ever seen them.



Bit of a steal if you like extremely comfy white trainers.

Best colourway by far.

Very nice.

Should get my black “normal” version delivered today. The only thing that slightly concerns me is that i have bought them as a kind of beater and i do wonder how the velcro bit will withstand getting wet and dirty over time.

I don't see the appeal of the dunks. Guess they're popular though, loads on ebay for resale prices.

At £625, LV branding apart what makes them 'better' than the equivalent offerings from Nike/Adidas etc? Is the quality of the stitching/leather etc a step above? Are they made by hand in Italy? I've always thought trainers by fashion houses seem disproportionately expensive for what they are.

If I buy a pair of Church's I can see where the money has gone over and above a pair from let's say Clarks. Is it a similar situation here or are you just paying ££ because it says LV/Prada/McQueen etc on it?

I don’t think anything makes them better than Nike, Adidas etc.

The quality is very nice along with the shopping experience and how they’re presented.

I paid the money because I like them, and that represents value to me. Price didn’t really factor into this purchase, enjoyment and knowing I’ll wear them a lot did. I live in Asia, anytime I’m not in the office then I’ll generally be wearing smart shorts and these fit the bill quite nicely as an accompaniment.

That's an honest answer and fair play to you.

It's wet this morning. Nearly ended up on my arse twice so far. 270s are not grippy.

[Jordan210]

wore my AIR ZOOM LWP '16 for first time yesterday to walk dog. good level of grip.

She wanted to run around the park so we did. I managed to roll my ankle in a rabbit hole. Luckily the bounce level of the sole and sturdiness of the shoe. saved me. Normally would be in my Mexico 66's what would have been an ankle breaker.

Second pair arrived today

As for the appeal. Back in the early - mid 00s o had quite a few pairs, didn’t ever get the OG Diamond Tiffany’s though. So a twist on a theme and I’m there, glad it wasn’t a reissue. Quality is top notch for £90 too

They look a lot nicer in your photo than they did in any of Nike's photos.
