Oh very nice. I got in on the red camo ones. Waiting for them to be shipped. Cant wait :D
Btw how do these fit? I went with my usual size.

Yeah I went with actual size too, which is half size what I wear for Asics / NB
it fits perfectly, and it's so light!, too light actually haha

feels like wearing nothing, and cold can penetrate

Haha. Seems nice for Spring!
But it's been raining for the past couple of days. Won't be wearing them until I see a sunny weather. :D

Just had a quick google, they've almost all sold out on the UK Adidas store

Ye. adidas dropped them at 5am close to 6. By 8am most of the common sizes were already sold out.
Luckily I was browsing on my phone before I fell asleep lol.

What are these and how much is it going to hurt my wallet?

Adidas NMDs. About 90 Empire Pounds. So about 130 freedom papers.

Yup! One of the more affordable boost.
I actually paid £76.50 since adidas couldn't find me/cart me dem yeezys, so they gave me a 15% discount.
Used on the NMDs so overall pretty excited.

130 freedoms? Hm, not too bad. Just gotta not shoot something for three hours and be able to afford it.

Haha, Bristol is really windy. Like exceptionally windy. Plus weather is a bit weird but that's like UK overall eh?
Lol, it was sunny 3 times today and it rained twice. Crazy spring we're experiencing.
Haha nice. Do visit Bath, it's a very nice town. 

[iri]

If you think Bristol is exceptionally windy, never go to West Wales.

Finally got some skate shoes so I don't ruin my Asics trail runners and don't hurt myself.

Bruh, mine came in. They feel real good when I just slip them on for a bit earlier. Can't wait to wear them out!

Edit: I've updated the pic. Hopefully it is better lol.
Any idea how you shot your pic? I've see that you've used an S6 from Flickr. I'm using the Edge model that has the same camera but I'm pretty potato when it comes to pic.
Was that on Auto/Pro mode?

wow nice!
the key is to have just enough natural lighting, and I use pro mode to control the aperture

than you can edit it with VSCO

Great advice, thanks! I have VSCO but I rarely use it. Will definitely try them out next time

Anyone know about Adidas orginals Army lo a.039? I can't find any info on these anymore. Think they came out in 2010.

In Latvia fashion is quite slow and the sneaker game "showed up" just like two years ago. So I bought my first cool sneakers today - black Nike Nightgazers. Wow, I'm walking on pillows, they're so comfy! Have a phone camera so can't get the best pictures, here's one from the interwebs.

Eh that's not too bad. Honestly, with certain sneakers being hyped up lately, other sneakers are overlooked.
I've seen some nice Asics and Saucony's with pretty nice colourways yet they've been unnoticed.
Just wear what you like man, it's all good. As long as you feel comfy in it. :D
But Spring is here, gotta get 1 more pair of shoes for it!

My pair of doc work boots are comfortable as ****. But their laces are absolute crap. But the boots themselves have taken a beating and didn't look too bad.

show off your jordans and nike bro. lol

that pair where you got escorted by police must look fresh

Honestly don't you feel like that's a waste of a beautiful shoe? Letting them rot in a dark box shoved down a closet is a terrible fate, you've got to take the special ones out for a nice walk once in a while or else what's the point?

Thanks for the advice! Been seeing some nice Asics too. Maybe will cop something up once summer hits our lands! But well, I'm practical (except for artisans, catch'em all!) so I try to buy something when I know really need them and know I'll use them. Can't understand the need to own over 5 pairs of sneakers max though. That's why I'm usually late to the trendy stuff. :D

[jaffers]

Although I don't understand this thing about sports shoes I do understand boots, I will post mine when I get the replacement laces

Ohh, I just needed/wanted a pair of running shoes for a long time. I've yet to decide on one though.
Anyways most running sneakers are worn casually nowadays as they're both appealing and comfortable.  :)

You faster at moderating than people posting in Clackvent.

And these Supras... skate 2 days and already beat the **** out of them. I guess they want you to chew through them quickly. Good thing I have a tube of 20 yr old shoe goo laying around here somewhere.

It feels SO good to not wear Asics Gel Kahanas for the first time in years. I overpronate PLUS had that bad right side injury (abdomen, back, hip, groin, leg, foot strains and tears) so I could only wear Kahanas because of the anti-roll sole and good arch support. I went though over 100 pairs via stores and zappos to try to find them in the first place.

When I ever get moneys again, I'm going to explore some more comfy skate shoes. Recommendations for next after Supra?

On topic, I really dislike how some shoes look when they get up to bigger sizes. I really dig the Janoski Max', but they look weird in my shoe size (13).

Yeah, I've noticed this too. Some sneakers just looks different in bigger sizes. Tried out a few Puma sneakers, they were US11 size and they looked like whole other shoes.

Yeah so far I've found that most New Balance' look pretty good at larger sizes, as do Air Max 90s. Need to try some Roshe Runs and Tubulars next, just not sure what I want to go with yet.

I'd imagine that they'd last about as long as a Shortys board. Shoe goo after two days though, that really sucks

I got my first pair of Sperrys a few weeks back.

Nice enough to wear to the office, but still comfy as hell.
