Angel eyes Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 What’s your favourite/preferred brand Adidas, Umbro, Nike or no much fussed what ever looks good or does Hearts fc influence your buying what they rock you do as well? I’m very much Adidas think they produce some nice gear consistent pricey but you get quality. If I go for a possible alternative It’s in trainers puma like the style of them though Adidas gazelles are smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo89 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I think you're either a Nike person or an Adidas person. For me, I prefer adidas, it has to be addidas when it comes to footwear. The rest of my outfits / clothes I am not too fussed. I usually have to wear sports / old and crappy clothes to work so can't really be too fussed when it comes to the rest.

Салатные палочки Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 For trainers it's usually always Adidas but I recently bought a pair of Air Max 90s for nostalgia reasons and bugger me they are comfy! As for the clothing, I don't often buy sportswear but I got a pair of Adidas jogging bottoms in the sale for flying to Gran Canaria last year and when we got there they were all bobbled. Totally crap. If I get a new pair for travelling next year I'll probably go for Nike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Camazzola Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I terms of footwear, I don't have a go-to brand. I have over a dozen Onitsuka Tiger (Asics), Converse, Puma, NB, Nike, Adidas, retro Diadora, K Swiss, Skechers... If I like the style, I'll get them. For sportswear, Calvin Klein golf is worth a look. Their polos are good quality. Swedish brand, Peak Performance make good stuff but it's not widely available here. A lot of the stuff on the hummel and Kappa websites looks decent. Kappa did have an image associated with chavs in the 90s but a lot of their football range has been decent in recent years. The quality of Adidas Originals stuff has dropped since they seem to mass produce a lot of their lines. The Nike app is worth getting and registering your details with. They have a members only section and provide occasional chunky promos with 25% off etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruyff Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 A general mixture tbh. If it is Nike, it will be an SB Hoodie. Same with Adidas. Generally I'll just buy one if I like the colour or, the design. I buy a lot of my clothes from Route One so I'd add Levi's, Carhartt, Vans, Dickies and various other brands in there. Trainers, it is New Balance Numeric all the way these days, think I've got 6 or 7 pairs of NB numeric and I think they have more choice, better designs and they are better made.

EH11_2NL Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 New Balance for trainers and pretty much what is cheapest in Sports Direct after that.
