Anyone into trainers/sneakers? (Vol. 2)

[Pulse]

How accurate is Adidas’ view on their NMD_R1 running at least one size smaller? How much bigger should I go?

ETA: Reviews on the site say it’s the right size, so that’s weird.

Those are a cool colour.

Aye I don't think I would have got them had they been any other colour

Just bought these, always wanted a pair but thought I wouldn't get them as they were too much money for me, but with a discount code got them for £80.

I have 5 pairs of Trimm Trabs as you say really uncomfortable for a whole day especially if walking is required, perfect for a trip to the pub but not much more! They don't break in either as I have worn a pair a fair bit to work and they are still uncomfortable I really like the look of them though.

I'd rank the Trimm-Trab alongside (controversially) the Nike SB Janoski as the most uncomfortable shoe I've ever owned. For a long time I thought I'd bought a duff pair with some manufacturing defect. They were going to languish in the box until the sole crumbled, so I punted them on eBay to someone who seemed delighted with their purchase. I'm almost relieved you found them as unpleasant to wear as I did. I think it's all in the sole, which might as well be brick.

100% the sole is really stiff, the upper is pretty terrible also, I just really like the style. These will be worn on the first pub trip with the boys, which is likely to be my best mates stag so I wont be thinking about how comfortable my shoes are after a few beers

Future riders. They do loads of colourways in these and properly comfy. I’d be tempted to say go half a size up with them.
I’ve these coming tomorrow.

Entered the SNKRS draw for the dunks this morning. No notification that I got an L, no W either, no money taken, no email from Nike. All very odd.

Is that a joke? If it isn't that is possibly one of the worst pair of sneakers I have ever seen.

"possibly one of the worst pairs of sneakers I have ever seen"

What needs to happen to remove that ambiguity?!

That was my exact thought

And I really want to know the answer!!!!

Thankfully it's just a 1 of 1.. The collaboration is actually a pair of superstars, one black, one white, but this guy wanted to have a world record hence the buzz around these

Anyone try for the supreme dunks ?

Nah, not my bag. I dislike brands that people buy just to show they're wearing that brand - Supreme is one of 'em, imo.

Kudos to the guys that started Supreme though - it's a masterclass in marketing and the creation of "hype" products. Supreme are one of the few brands that could (and do!) put they name on anything and folk will fall over themselves to buy it.

Edit: Sorry, that turned into a mini-rant

It's hard with Supreme. Every time I see Supreme touch something my first thought is: "A 14-year old ahole is going to buy that."
