Oh I just replied to someone else asking on the Traitors thread!

Yeah they also did a pair of Spiridons in the same pack which are a little cheaper. I have those but the Air Max 1 were very hard to get. The friends and family pair were amazing.



Spiridons (so comfy)

That was why I asked!

They remind me of the Nike Air Pegasus 83 that I've got in the same colourway as well. I like those too.

I've got a pair of the 79 Retro's and whilst I do really like them I really don't find them very comfortable. They feel almost like neither are Left/Right almost on my feet, it's hard to explain. Their the only pair of trainers where I have to double check I'm putting them on the correct foot

I do know what you mean by that as well.

Always liked Adidas Cordura.

Currently clearing the loft and sorting pairs that won’t get worn.. with recent pump chat thought these would be of interest!

Reebok Pump Court Victory 2:

Were those ever worn?!?

What size are they?

[bristolbaron]

I don’t think they were ever worn outside, but had been tried on… size 10.

[TheJimi]

Oooft.

Cool AF.

I had a pair of OG Court Victory as a kid. I loved those things.

[g4ry13]

They look in great condition (obviously).

On a related note to the Adidas above, I saw this recently -

Pretty cool transformation imo, I'd wear those.

Well, my walking boots have died, so this are being promoted into gentle use and the Beretta boots to full Monty.


However, I have decided that these will be having to go, as too small for me. UK11, (so perfect 10.5), unworn, non original box. Shout if anyone wants a bargain before they hit eBay.

Very cool, but I doubt my local Timpson is up to the work.

Reebok Pump Court Victory 2:

Love those. The trainers that first got me into the game were Reebok Pump SXT's. Got a pair on holiday in the US in about 1993. I wish Reebok would rerelease them. In the meantime I'm having to make do with Omni Zone 2s.

I’ve got some new pairs unworn, that I really should get shot of. I’m guessing it’s no adverts on this thread?

Nice! Similar colourway too!

It’s been discussed in the past when the watches section gained their own for sale thread… I can’t remember what the outcome was though
It was either:
Post here and only here as we’d be the only people interested.
Post in the classifieds section as non motoring.
Start one ‘official’ trainers for sale thread and only use that.

Not much help am I

[Gone a bit AMG]

A couple of new arrivals, mostros to replace a pair I’ve abused but have properly stood up to the abuse. At £55 it’d be rude to refuse. And the waffles are up there it’s my favourite just mooching to the pub trainers. Delighted they’re back.

[C5_Steve]

Literally just ordered these, saw them a while ago but didn't realise they were Converse. Shai 001. They quite different in videos compared to the shots on the website, much slimmer and sneaker. That side shot in the site makes them look weirdly bulky.



I've a few pairs of basketball shoes, really liked the AE1 but not a fan of the 2 so these look like more my thing.

[TheJimi]

Not my thing, but that's an interesting trainer.

Indeed, they'll be one of the more restrained pairs I own tbh...



They seem to have more attention in the US but most of the colour ways have still sold out here.
