Any sneaker heads here?

[Master Yoda]

Only started collecting recently, but it all stemmed from my old Nike Cortez, I cant for the life of me find another pair because I didn't look after mine the best I could have

What colour were they?

I can source those. They on Stock X. I have sourced 5 pairs of hard to get shoes. It takes time and patience to use this from Australia. They are there. Have a look. You can get a fresh pair back

Sometimes I am so sick of shoes I don’t wear any on the weekends. I wear slides.

I wear these Nike Airmax 90 slides

They are so awesome I wondered what Airmax 90s would feel like and I didn’t have any. So I did some thing about it and got these.

They are really comfortable and look amazing.

Well I’ve sold one of these and 2 pairs pending sale already and made a tidy profit. But now I have experienced them.

They are great. Got a triple white pair on the way.

Dunno why I have been into white shoes lately. Got some new ones these couple of days

Nike Airforce 1 Low Scribble. They may be sold already and I never got to wear them out lol.

 

[Master Yoda]

Then there’s these... I’m taking a liking to Converse more and more.

Later today I’ll be copping a couple of pairs of NMDs and one of them is a triple white too

 

[Master Yoda]

Most of the above are sold...

But some beauties arrived from Stock X today...

Starwars x Adidas NMD R1 Darth Vadars

They even make Yoda, Padme, Bobba Fet, Mace Windu, X Wing, Storm Trooper, and others.

 

[Master Yoda]

Adidas R1 ‘Pirate Solar Red’ NMD

 

[Master Yoda]

Black Air Force 1s by Nike. These things are crazy complex in the air soles and very comfortable


Something I will wear with a suit

 

[Phoebe]

I can’t wait till stilettos come back in style and also stiletto knee high boots .. see life from 4 to 6 inches higher ...

 

[Numpty]

Since not punting for a long time I have spare cash. And to keep myself amused I have been SHOPPING!!! Sneakers and fountain pens amongst other things have been my thing since. Is there anyone here that have an addiction to buying shoes and sneakers like I do? If so I’d live for there to be a thread to discuss the deep culture of sneaker passion. I have over 50 pairs now stored on three different racks.

Let me know...

My addiction is Dr Martens & Vintage corkscrews and a bit of Pro Hart if I see a bargain

Just bought my wife a pair of Dr Marten boots cherry colour way. They look sick.

I have not worn Docs since I was 20. I should try again at some stage.

But too many high tech sneakers out there that are just too comfortable.

Yeezys is my big obsession atm. I have 7 pairs of those lol.

They’re all I’ll wear(DM’s), had some vintage adidas bambas ( black leather , white stripes & tan waffle soles with the classic pattern round the base of the big toe) which my teenage son persistently yearned over till I gave in,
which I loved to wear, he doesn’t anymore but I think he sold them.

I‘m ok with that as I’m happy he understands value in old cool stuff, but now he’s raiding my vinyl LP’s.

And some Adidas NMD Good Bye Gravities. I have a real thing about Yeezys and NMDs. I'll post more about these later.

View attachment 104305

I wore these Electric Green Nike Joy Rides when I delivered and sold a pair of Alphaboosts. They guy wanted these as well and paid a high price. I walked away with no shoes on lol.

 

[Master Yoda]

Is it hard to repair shoes?

Would love to see some before and after pics of the next pair you restore

I want to see too.

Yeah I copped a pair of Iconic Airmax 90s.

The seller said they were worn twice, but when they arrived they must be the filthiest pair of shoes I have event seen.

Here are the pics. And that is after I gave them a good scrub with detergent.

Now they are marinating in a paste I formulated until tomorrow.

I’ll show you the end result when I have it.

 

[Master Yoda]

Wow... I finally copped some Nike Airmax 2090s. The 2020 Airmax release by Nike. It draws a lot if inspiration from the iconic Airmax 90s. But with a modern upper and a big modern air unit in the bottom with react mid soles on the front part of the shoe.

Here they are...

 

[Phoebe]

Heels over flats!
