Anyone get the Gallagher Spzl? Boring colour, great trainer, idiots face on tongue! The annexe vid was good though!

Cheers pal... managed to bag a pair myself, the ones in the video had to go back to adidas as they were that limited...

Mightily pissed off.

Spent 2 hours trying to get a pair. Adidas website crap - got to checkout & it timed out numerous times before, annoyingly, they were out of stock.

And then they pop up on fleabay for getting on for £400.00 a pair!!!!

I hate those knob jockey resellers with a passion.

So do I. Entered multiple raffles in multiple sizes and was gonna retail sort out people I knew who would wear them... got 1 pair in my size...

[Rawwr]

Who got a pair of Obsidians? That's right; me.

Congrats everyone I know who wanted some got them. What makes a change. Seen resellers moaning that Nike has made more than people expected. Haha fools

[Rawwr]

I think Nike may have changed something. On the sneakers discord I'm on, none of the people using multiple accounts won a pair but seemingly all the honest people did. Possibly coincidence.

Let’s hope so. SNEAKRS is a fun way to buy shoes ruined by bots and multiple accounts.

[Matt Cup]

Both myself and my missus did not manage to get a pair.

Let's hope you're right and Nike have finally done something.

Mix and match

I managed a W with SNEAKRS and END and I only have the one account with both. Already sold the other pair to my mate for retail.

I threw out my old Saucony Jazz Originals a few weeks ago and replaced them with a pair of Azuras. The Azura concept is really, apparently imagined as a late 80's style concept of what the 90's trainer would be like. Highly meta for a 2019 trainer. Usual great feel and quality.



For the gym I've replaced a horrible pair of flat-soled Pumas with some Asics Gel Pulse 11's. I should never have tried another trainer, Asics just work perfectly for me. Their shoes make you feel like you have springs in your legs.

Big fan of the Azura. Super comfy. Also bought my dad a pair for when he's abroad and he loves them. I'll get some other colours eventually.

Have you seen the upcoming Weathered Luxury Pack?

I've just bought some new Reebok gym trainers and I really don't like them so they'll be going back. Might have to try something like those Asics.

Hanon clearence section has some great asics deals atm

Hi all, looking for some advice from the community please. I am looking for some Air Max 270 as below, size UK7-7.5 but I am unable to find anywhere offering them other than a couple of dodgy websites that I don't want to chance my arm with.



I have tried the first 3-4 pages of google after searching, does anybody have any ideas where I might get a pair or is it a case of trailing round the shops? Any suggested websites appreciated please.

Thanks

EDIT: Just found some!! Footlocker via Sole Supplier - sure I checked there last night and they didn't have the size showing...... Thanks anyway.

Looking for some help regarding comfortable trainers. I have a pair of Adidas Boost's that need to be replaced, but the 160 for a brand new pair Boost 2019 just seems abit excessive. If I have to buy them I will but try to save where I can.

Are there any alternatives out there which as just as comfortable? I need them by this weekend as I'm off to Japan on Sunday and want to wear them, my Nike Air Max's just can't match the comfort that the Boost's gave.

[lemmingjames]

Puma RS... or whatever they are called, comfier than the boosts ive got
Nike Cortez are comfy
The J1's and J5 are comfy
I commute in my PG3's but others on here arent a fan
If you want a walking about in trainer - On Clouds but the arent pub sort of shoes

[Gameface]

Lots of places have sales. Look at the sticky at the top of the lounge.

Even the ADIDAS app has one on at the moment.

[TheJimi]

The marketing would have you believe Nike Air / React or Adidas Boost are your only options.

They’re not.  ASICS Gel, for example, are easily on par with either, perhaps even better, if you like your cushioning with support as well as bounce.

Vans Ultracush & Comfycush are also pretty good.

Finally, if you’re totally set on a variation of Adidias Boost, you absolutely don’t have to pay £160 for them :-)
