Yeah, very sad. I wonder if all Off-White's will now shoot up in value [I got no chance of buying a pair of the red and white Jordan 2's now]?!

Amazing! Thanks for the heads-up.

By the time I got there I could only get UK8 but have picked them up in the hope of finding a UK9 to trade with…if I am not successful, I will offer them up here for retail thumbup
Finding that trade has proved beyond me - any takers for this pair (Air Max 1 Patta waves - maroon) before I return to Nike?

Bought our eldest a pair of these at the weekend - do they do an adults version - or what's the nearest aldut version?

They're 'black & red court borough low 2 trainers youth'

AF1 Nike ID?

Very sad news frown - the Off-White Jordan 4’s are probably my favourite pair.

Too young frown

Perfect!

Did you custom design those - I can't get the website to do what I want it too!

Do you have a link to the page?

I got EA for the first time so couldn’t resist getting these. I wasn’t sure when I ordered them but I really like them now they have arrived.

Googling the name on the strap - "Bunker" is the brand.

Incidentally, google also throws this up - https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Also, your "sleuthing" skills suck biggrin
Thanks, I really don't know why I couldn't find them, I even searched for "bunker shoes" etc

I was in for the Fade Azure Yeezy 700’s last week - not got a pair in the collection and the colourway called out to me.



Looks like I misjudged how hard to come by they would be as I ended up with 4 raffle wins. Whilst returns are easy enough to do, it’s highlights the problem with the sneaker game these days - a complete stshow rolleyes

My top tip if you like them enough in hand keep 2 pairs, wear one pair to death and have another fresh pair ready to go! I have this with some spzl pairs and its great feeling knowing you aren't ruining a pair you cant replace!

Not a great pic. Much better in hand. The gold metal aglets are a nice touch. Pleased with them.

Doubling up is the way to go if you love the shoe wink

Well, having tried on the Yeezy 700’s this evening all 4 pairs going back to whence they came - that side profile shot is as good as it gets. On foot they are far too chunky around the toe - kind of reminiscent of an orthopaedic shoe your granny would wear laugh
