I think the Lytham are class.

This is the first time I've really taken a shine to one of the leisure shoes ranged. The carbon monoxide alarm isn't going off, so I actually think I mean this.

These are my favourites as well but I got a pair of Moscrop 2 a while ago and they're a bit too similar. I've got original Wensley's, so they're out but the colours are good.

The Munchens look good for the dark blue, subtle though. Grisdale are appealing in a wild card way.

Word of warning, I had a pair of Munchen in dark blue and they faded really quickly. Haven't had a pair of suede Adidas since but I did wonder if the quality had dipped.

I’m not seeing anything I like either. Some strange releases from them again.

Nice.

Ooh, got deets?
Really nice.
They have changed the back/ankle, I like the wrap around the ankle.

Not sure if this recent style is an OG style from a different region? Anyone know?

ordered the Samoa this morning, also New York but a size larger than hoped; so they may go back unless anyone is a size 11.5 and missed out!

they seem to have been the big seller so far of the autumn drop

I think it's based on the late 80's version of Handball - the more familar Handball Spezial is from an earlier original design (late 70s).

I wanted some "smart trainers" so rather than buying yet another variant of plain black AF1s I went for these. They might be a bit too "M1K3 shoe trainers" for some but theyre definitely sold as "sneakers" rather than shoes biglaugh



"Stock leather sneakers" in black, they come with plain black laces too but I like the subtle blue, Italian made using calf leather so hopefully very comfy once ive had them on for a bit.

I love the sole, that's a very cool effect.

Not sold on the overall shape of them but, for Burberry I think the price is, dare I say it, almost reasonable?

I'm not sure even M1k3 would wear those!

It's a challenging shape...
