Agree with the cactus jack AF1. Lose the pouch, out the sail laces in and they look class. Kind of wish I’d have gone for them now
It does lose some of the uniqueness without it, but I prefer the subtle look.

BTW watched both your Berlin videos this morning and thoroughly enjoyed them. Makes me want to take a trip over there. I may get a weekend break there as a gift for the missus and use it as an excuse to go to those shops biggrin

Also what a fking bargain those ZX’s were!

Good list there Rawwr.

I've never made one. No good can come of it! hehe

Black Friday is just round the corner. You sure there won't be any late additions?

Your list reminded me about the Air Max 90 Be True. Think I'll get a pair now. Especially as you can get them for £70.

I doubt it. I'm super-cynical about Black Friday 'deals' as it is. I suspect most places are just going to use it as a chance to offload a load of GR sh*te that hasn't sold all year.

You won't get any of that carrot fit skinny nonsense here.

In the immortal words of the Happy Mondays "Has to be a loose fit". Now all I have to do is wait another 20odd years to be in fashion again.

To be fair, slim / skinny jeans are great for making a feature of your trainers. Try pinrolling those jeans, bet the sneaks would look even better.

But yeah, ultimately wear what makes you happy smile

It's got to be tapered or slim jeans for me. And most I'll pin roll - do turn ups except for smarter darker jeans I wear with shoes on a night out.

Straight leg, boot cut or those silly spray on jeans are a no, no for me.

Pinrolling? Oooh fancy, back when I were a lad and this was all fields we called them turnups.

Here is a turnup earlier today.

Can someone show me a pin rolling technique which doesn’t make my jeans look like I’m wearing a TAG on the inside of my leg? I’m clearly doing something wrong.

I've been banging on at Danny for ages for him to do a pinrolling tutorial on the annexe.

His pinrolls are always neat AF.

Why thank you... and yes I’ll try remember. But might throw it into another video we have been approached to make (a shop wants to kit us out an outfit to match some different trainers - a kind of fun project if we can make it work)

Different vegetables to be fair biggrin

Turnips are just that.

Pinrolls actually create a taper.

Science, man.

Regrettably had to use Stockx for the first time..

On a positive note, the whole process was very good.
