@thejimi- I’ve also entered the draw for those jordan’s on ‘end’ for you in size 7.

Hell of a way to make an entrance, Malks, thank you very much!

haha, I’ve been lurking for a while and someone (gameface i think!) put up a link/discount code ages ago and i got some bargain new balance ‘made in england’ in awesome colours and always felt I owe the thread something back!

It was me.

So you owe me not Jimi FFS

I cannot be, even indirectly, responsible for him winning a raffle.

Checking in to vol. 3 with today’s delivery which is a bit of fun - a couple of first for me: first pair of Stan Smith shoes and also first anything adorned with Kermit the Frog I’ll grow up one day, I’m sure...

Those are class. I didn't actually think they were a real shoe when I first found out about them (on April Fools' Day no less). Stan Smiths are an iconic trainer for a reason, and provided the size works for you they're sure to become a staple. I like the fact those ones don't have the padded tongue - any time I go to replace the Stans I have I can only ever find versions with the chunkier tongue.

I’m in for these. Lovely.

When you say in for them? Do you mean you have asked them to notify you, and when they do you enter the raffle is it ??
I’ve asked them to notify me in the Snkrs app also, but quite obviously haven’t a clue

As in I have entered the raffle to receive an email telling me I haven’t received them. Upon receipt I will go on Stockx and swear at resellers.

Shame they just do Nike, if they had a more Converse/ skate shoe would be more appealing, oh and a grand less would make it a “fun” thing. Love the idea tho.

Tried them on again tonight but I just need that half size up - found a full size run on HANON so picked up a 9.5uk and I’ll return these to Adidas. Think I’ve just discovered my Adidas mojo

Found some sambas on m&m

Always on there, you can get leather sambas, even the jonah hill ones for £55 at end and hanon I think.

I think leather hold their shape better and are better quality made than the m and m and sports direct samba. I wouldn't be surprised if they are made purely for those 2 retailers.

[IainT V6]

Well that’s a turn up for the books

[Gameface]

Not a size 7 are they...?

[IainT V6]

UK9 which means you might be in luck if any of my raffles land

[anonymous-user]

Got these in the Adidas sale, sure you guys are aware but if you have any students in the family the discount codes work on Sale stuff for Adidas and Nike these came in at £45

Has anyone used Size? They have a track top I like but the reviews are shocking

Congrats!! Is that early access through SNKRS or something?

[IainT V6]

Yes, the myth that is Exclusive Access on SNKRS finally chose me for a pair I really wanted - you get a notification pop up and go from there. Worth checking the app!

I just have the SNKRS app telling me the draw is on Saturday for those. Is there another level of app? #confused

[doogle83]

My understanding is that you tick the 'notify me' button on anything you like and then Nike randomly selects people to have 'exclusive access' via a notification on your phone which gives you the chance to purchase before the full release. Lots of myths about how it actually works on youtube
