Shoes Poll

[big screen satellite]

do you have some, and do you wear them?

considering there were only 5000 made, wonder how many mint pairs are left!!!

[Floating Dave]

Own them and wear them very occasionally. There's probably quite a few mint pairs left.

This guy certainly seems to have a few:

I don't know what kind of prices these will go for, but if it's not something ridiculous I might consider picking up a pair.

[BeautifulBurnout]

I wear mine maybe twice a year, but I take good care of them. I thought about keeping them in the box, then I rationalised it: Was I ever going to sell them? No. So why bother keeping them mint?

They really are fab to wear in a club where they pick up the light beautifully :D

ok,

usually i don't buy novelty clothes/shoes etc.
but am i the only person that wouldn't wear them?

up here in east coast usa, it snows, its muddy, and wet.
in spring and summer its better..so there's no way these
shoes would maintain their quality...

but i don't see where i would wear these shoes,
so that's why i would keep them boxed..especially
for the prices they go for..

...and get trampled on. Are you sane! :confused: :)

[potatobroth]

i wear them, not often though. They are very hot shoes to wear... meaning my feet feel very hot wearing them.

[mark3]

I have two pairs.. one pair totally worn out, the other pair still in the box :D

[dubman]

shoes are made for wearing. that's how they get their love.
i would but i'm size 13 and i've yet to see a pair accomodate that.

[BrotherLovesDub]

i have an unworn pair of US 8.5 / UK 8 that are half a size too small for me. if anybody has a size US 9 that is half size too big, also unworn, i'd love to swap.

L'Oreal gentle make-up remover wipes work a treat for cleaning them :D

[industri_studios]

Thanks for the tip - I have a pair of Basquiat Reeboks that I wear very occassionally, but they have some scuffing from dark coloured jeans hanging over the white heel... so that just may do the trick. Cheers!

[samralh]

I was so scared that ndrwrld wouldn't fit into the ones that I got. Thankfully, they fit like a dream.

Love you honey!

i would nevereverevereverever wear them. and i'd probably be a bit manic about the condition of the tags/labels if there were any.

i have collectables OCD.

I'm in the same situation.

When the release of the shoes happen across the US, the adidas originals store here in Portland only had sizes up to 11. They were able to track down one pair of size 13 in LA, but they couldn't be sent up to Portland in time.

After scouring around online constantly, I've kind of resigned to the state of admiring photos of the shoes.

[qirex]

I got a pair of 13's (USA) as a gift because my friend thought i'd wear them ( i am a 13) but they've been on display on my shelf since.

[BufoBufo]

I've been after a pair of these in UK size 11 for donks, but they don't seem to exist. I know they do a 13, though. Might be time to scrunch up some old Racing Posts and clown it down the street.

[dubman]

??

i thought they didnt even make them for size 13. everywhere i looked it said 6-11 or something.

oh shit.

i want them now. i was all resigned but now that they're somewhere in dark corners i really want a pair.

dammit.

[botkiller]

want want want! I am an adidas freak!

[negative1]

ok,

it looks like i'm getting the shoes!

but since it takes a while to ship them from
the UK, and i'll be on vacation..

i'll probably get them sometime next year..

i think i'll just wear them indoors, for special occasions...
