Apart from my size!Honestly, this is some kinda cosmic conspiracy.
Just saw this on linkedin, a product that helps making dirty trainers white again :
https://www.whitez.nl/
The site is in Dutch, but it's not difficult to understand
Costs 15€.

I had completely forgot about Pro Direct as a business, used to get all my football boots and training gear from them. Had a look at the tracksuits they have and they've got stuff that's sold out everywhere else in size L, happy days

Yesterday my Converse Pro Leather X Bandulu arrived. The embroidered paint-splatters look great in person 
They are however going back, just a little bit too small and I don't want to remove the insole... Luckily was able to buy the last pair in the next size up

So because the Pro Leathers looked so great I've also bought the Chuck 70 x Bandulu in the meantime.... and some New Balance M15009FR Made in Englands....
Still, lots of you guys are worse than me so 3 new pairs in 2 weeks is okay...right?

Were you in to TN's? My brother had a silver pair, did these come in silver? Edit to actually answer the other question - fairly sure I only ever saw these in this colour, white and black. I got these from Allsports (remember them?) and I think the normal TN styles were in Footlocker. JD had the air max that looked like TN but didn’t say TN (think they said airmax on the heel) that a mate had in silver if I am remembering correctly and not making it up in my head.

Yep, massively. Faves were the normal style in white mesh and baby blue but had a few others as well. These, however, were my favourite ever trainers when I was a kid and I actually wore them until the soles were coming away from the uppers until my mum made me throw them out.

IIRC, back in 1999; TNs were a Footlocker exclusive in the UK. Only later were they widely available. I had a pair of the first grey / silver ones, purchased here; but worn entirely whilst living in Tokyo. The amount of times I was stopped there because of the trainers was staggering. Really like the TN style, my last pair of the white leather and gold detailing was stolen from the gym in 2019. Grrrr. Who steals size 7 mens trainers I'll never know.Edit to actually answer the other question - fairly sure I only ever saw these in this colour, white and black.

Used to have these when I was about 13 or 14, saw them up for RRP and thought I’d wait and see if I could grab a bargain down the line and I just did 
The original TN was a hard act to follow...so it was only a matter of time till these hit the sale racks. They weren't a huge hit the first time round and £150 this time was punchy! I always quite liked the silver/purple colourway of the AMP2, can't say I've seen it on this release? Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
