Bought these a while ago which I love, like the 997H in yellow/blue too. Along with some white canvas Vejas. I haven't had white trainers in years and don't understand how people in Scotland can go outside and not get them wrecked. Can maybe wear them twice a year.

Loved the look of these but can't be fucked entering a raffle to win a pair of trainers I'll end up getting manky, feel bad when there's people who seem to give a shit about them.

Also digging the Nike x Ben and Jerry's efforts. I have a B&J top they'd go with

Both of today's purchases. For about £85 all in. The bottom ones are corduroy and I was wanting them at full price but a big bit scared they'd get ruined quick. For £40, it's worth the plunge. 

Away to start selling off my Asics packs.

Was doing a lockdown wardrobe clear out and came across these NMDs that I got in the sale last Xmas. Completely forgot I'd bought them and dont think gore tex trainers are currently a priority.

Keep or ebay?20200601_125751.jpg

I realise that ihe consensus is likely to be "shite retro tracksuit top thread for this pish", but may I also post on here an image of the Sergio Tachini top that I bought along with these beauties:

Re the shoes, I recently read on a running blog that a serious runner has gone back to the Saucony 500s for his longer runs as he thinks it is the comfiest shoe he has ever used. he had gone with all the latest developments and releases for the last 5-10 years but never found anything quite as comfortable. he swears that it stands up. I bought mine for "leisure wear" but I might try them out for running see if he is on to something.

Sauconys are really comfy, quite a big sole though which I reckon would be dodgy for fives or uneven surfaces. I don’t run though so should be fine for walking, gave me support when I did my ankle in.

Nice top, bought a similar retro one for kicking about the house.  Not sure about the zip but it was in the sale.

I wouldn't wear the 500s for anything bar running or walking. 

I hated my tracksuit top when it arrived. it looked okay (I thought) without a collar in the pic, but looked awful when trying it on. also although a medium was a bit on the tight side.

What are saucony like? I've noticed them when I started running and I like the retro look. 

so I use Saucony latest running lines for running and they are great, if lacking a little durability.

Their heritage range though tends only to be focused on a few lines like the Jazz and the 500s. As said, I love the 500s and haven't tried them for running yet but I reckon they would be pretty good. Am not sure anyone who runs regularly uses a Classic/Original or a Heritage line shoe though and there is probably a good reason for that. But I am happy to try and break that mould.

Are those genuine? See Gasp has a song out called Lidl Trainers but didn’t think they were an actual thing.

They are genuine, they were selling for £14 and now idiots are paying £100+ for them in eBay.
