Kicks, Sneaks and Foot Furnishings
  • there's a shortage of AF1 in actual shops in London right now. Went last weekend and basically JD only had black or some yellow tick ones (in only a couple of shops). 

    Woman in JD also told me a rumour that Footlocker are going to stop stocking Nike in the near future.
    He could've just said they came from another planet but seems keen to convince people with his bullshit pseudoscience that he knows stuff. I wouldn't trust him with my lunch. - SG
  • Yoooo rouj, nice pull. My mate got a winner on them too.
  • Aye Rouj, nice cop. The Waves are bout the only Ye I'd wear.

  • There was a colourway last year I can only describe as irn-bru that I would've killed for.
  • Thanks all, this shoe is basically the only Yeezy I'm interested in, imho it's the best he's ever put out by a mile - well actually some of the 500s were kind of cool in both low and high versions and the qntm/basktbl or however they spell them are interesting but not enough to go through the rigmarole of trying to get for retail.

  • Saw a thing that the guy who headed up design at Nike ACG was moving across to Yeezy for Adidas. I quite liked a fair bit of ACG so I'm hyped for that.

  • Who dat and why is he flexing his crocs on us?

    Crocs were cool in their own way before people tried forcing them to be "a thing" and made them suck the hardest. 

    Rubber clogs you enjoy = woke, rubber clogs you think I want to hear about how one of the gibbets is limited to just 20 pieces world-wide = broke. 

    Trainers aren't even cool, they're shoes that go on your feet, they just look more interesting than dress shoes and occasionally someone does a tiny bit of science and tries to marry it with fashion, which I appreciate the intersection of. I wouldn't want to ride or die for a perishable item that sometimes goes in dog shit (or worse) if you are unlucky.

    The Right Hon. Lord Rogers of Riverside, Richard, architect man. Did that building with the kiddy slide.

    Probably shouted ‘Look at the grips!’ as he climbed it.
  • That's fuckin Richard Rogers!?

    Jesus wept, how do you design the Pompidou centre and then bowl about in nursing home shoes, fucking sad. Old people who want comfy shoes you can get on and off easily should get pointed at some ultraboosts at least. Sheesh.

  • It’s that whacky architect vibe no doubt. Went to the Pompidou just yesterday. Still a strong joint.

    Heating rumours these are coming back next month, but not on raffles in my usual places yet. First ever Nike airs I lusted for. If anyone spies them anywhere keep us updated, Bo

    I still have mine from about a decade ago. Such a lovely looking, and comfortable sneaker.

    Yup, just as gorgeous now as when I was 10 and super jealous of Bradley wearing these bad boys to junior school. Plus there not a super regular re-release, only every ten years or so

  • They're banging these out in a utility guise, several colourways, not my bag. OGs all the way.

  • Aye, they look like clown shoes.
    Come with g if you want to live...
  • Nike gonna Nike, they veer from the sublime to the ridiculous with each shoe.

    Could be worse...

    Great for walking on corrugated roofing though.
  • I'll wear chunky idiot shoes, as is well documented, but not those.
  • I thought you were lean?

  • My Space Hippie 4's in the OG colourway have arrived...

    6kH438k.jpg

    They're...alright. Lovely looking shoe. Really comfy, but the soles are surprisingly "clumpy" when walking on the tiled floor in my hall and kitchen, which is a minor disappointment as I primarily bought them to wear about the house.
    I'll see how they go, but the OG Flyknits are still the undisputed king of house shoes for my money...

    Shame they don't do these any more.
    Anyhoo, mustn't grumble. Worst case scenario, I'll take the Hippies to the World Cup and annoy the sponsors with them.

  • Bought Mrs Prime some Space Hippie 04 last year, but she didn’t find them very cushioned and has barely worn them (I bought her a pair of Air Haurache around the same time too, which she wears all the time) :(
