williemillersmoustache Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 My trainers at the moment are a pair of Vans. Very comfy. I'm not a skateboarder or anything like that but you can feel the sponginess in these trainers which I'm assuming is something to do boarding. Whatever it is, it feels good. Yeah but in the old ones, the upper was built on top of the white band, so you had a massive spongy platform to loaf about in. With these yins your feet sit inside the white bit. They are peddling them as 'classic' and honestly within a month or two they started falling apart. Vans have always looked good though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah mine are still holding up but they are definitely starting to look slightly worse for wear. Had them since March but I think this winter could end them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Bought these recently, they're great; Surely the designers at Nike were having a laugh and said "I bet we could design any old shite and some mug will buy them. Let's make a sock/work boot/trainer combo and see what happens". Sorry mate, but they're hideous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonksy+HisChristianParade Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) Not a fan of Saucony at all tbh. Screams try-hard. Not to mention they look horrible. Edited December 11, 2014 by Bonksy+HisChristianParade 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilky1878 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Personally I can't go past adidas, they're just so nice and for being so basic in design they're mostly all very different 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Bought these recently, they're great; These are excellent. Team them with a pair of beige chinos with turn-ups and you'll surely protect your virginity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloop John B Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Tempted to buy the Hi -Tecs so I can nail the Larry David look when I'm older. Currently I own a Navy Blue pair of Sambas and a Burgundy Diadora pair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tongue_tied_danny Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Hi-Tec Silver Shadow - The Daddy of shit trainers That reminds me. I owned a pair of Hi-Tec Tecs, complete with crazy laces, back in the breakdance era. I thought I looked the tits. I also rocked a natty pair of Patrick Liverpool back in the casual era... Other shite trainers from my past include a pair of black Avia boots and a dodgy pair of British Knights. 'fess up fellahs. Confess your sneaker sins... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
