Treated myself to these in the Grenson sale, beautifully made and fit nicely too thumbup

They look really nice! Never heard of that brand before.
Typically do high quality mens formal shoes.
Think like Loakes, Barker, Cheaney & Church
They make great shows but they’re impossible for me to buy in the sales as their sizing is all over the place.
Agreed, I have a pair of their brogues which are a 8 1/2 and fit perfectly, they don’t do half sizes in their trainers so I went for a 9 and they also fit perfectly scratchchin

I have a pair of their wingtips that are a uk 10 and fit tight (actually wondering where those are now!) and some very very nice shearling lined hiking boots that are a 9 and I reckon I could have gone with an 8.5 even with thick socks.

I do like grenson and they used to have amazing sales, but are probably the only brand I can’t buy online.

The sneaker thread and the shoe thread converging.

The French Olympics prototype drops are live.

I managed to bag the basketball and the running ones.

Nice clean look.
How do they compare to Samba and Spezial comfort wise?

I used to love wearing Reeboks back in the mid to late 80's. I was quite a keen runner back then(I still run a bit now, but I'm nowhere near as quick as I used to be though!), so I always wore stuff like the DL5000/GL6000/GL6100 etc.

I was only looking at a pair similar to that as well last night, and that is an amazing price for those as you say. thumbup

I like the SBs they've done for the Olympics but not sure if those will release to the public?

A bit left field but I saw they're retiring the Nike Adapt brand. TBH I wasn't aware it was still a thing as they haven't released a paid for ages, however what's annoyed me is they're retiring the app which means if you delete the app or transfer devices you'll lose access to it and the ability to use it to control the shoes. Means you'll lose the lighting options.

I do actually have a pair of the BB 2.0 Mags, can't say I wore them a lot but they're a cool pair to keep as it's the closest I'll get to a pair of the BTTF Mags rofl

I've dug out my Air Max 1's for (what passes as) summer.

I bought a pair of those jade green Air Max 1's a few months ago. My missus doesn't like them though, so I haven't worn them yet! I can only presume that she thinks that they're a bit too feminine, but I do like them in fairness.

Just the colour I think. She seems to like all my other trainers that I buy though.

Just wear them man.

I've plenty trainers that my girlfriend doesn't like - damned if I'd stop wearing them because of that!

Goes both ways too, she wouldn't not wear stuff coz I don't like it.
