Forza Cuore Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Or for metalheads like myself who don't like to dress like Dimmu Borgir nor Eminem. I get what you're saying Freebird. Everyones tastes are different...but when it comes down to the nitty gritty I wouldn't fancy having a pair of Cons on if I was in the boozer or at a gig with broken glass all over the floor.

Freebird Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I actually quite like the metalhead style, it's about a million times better than the indie mincer look. Metalheads are into cool tattoos and piercings. Feckin' A. It's just the Cockburn Street tossers and emo fags that give us a bad name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Feckin' A. It's just the Cockburn Street tossers and emo fags that give us a bad name. Glasgow is absolutely full of them. I'm almost 30 and i can safely say that the current skinny jean/ floppy fringe/ Russell Brandalike fashion is the most camp and ridiculous i've ever seen. It's as bad as the neds cutting about in white shell suits and burberry ball caps. I must be getting old or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Just bought a pair of these .... http://www.trainerstation.com/adidas-forest-hills-whiteblue-leather-trainers-p-6015.html This is one of the most stunning shoes ever released by adidas, very limited availability and we have very limited stocks.. Says it all really Nice. Trainerstation is a great website for getting in limited edition Adidas. Anyone who believes that Nike, Converse or any other crappy kind of trainer are actually better than Adidas, well they should be quite frankly, SHOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these folk look ridiculous...Possibly stems from jealousy too on my part as there is no danger I'd stick my bandy legs into they skintight jeans!

this_is_my_story Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 No way freebird, those are quality. Converse are for limp-wristed indie boys who listen to the klaxons and the ting tings and look more feminine than their girlfriends. Whereas fluorescent Nikes sculpt a tower of testosterone from the wearer. Wouldn't wear either to be honest. Old school Adidas, however, is coolness personnified.

Forza Cuore Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Travel Fox were indeed cool at the time. Think they suffered as a lot of tehno type groups were into them.....thinking Technotronic.

Angry Haggis Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Some interesting tastes of sneeker wear here.

Sherlock Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Dig those Dasslers! Can you remember the Adidas ZX??? Blue with yellow stripes...can never remember the proper name and been trying to find them on the net for ages. Might be ZX6000 ?? Found the fellas!! Been looking for these for ages! ZX600 Are you sure you're not thinking of the ZX 300? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chester copperpot Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I've just purchased a pair of Old School Nike Air Max. They're the shizzle. I just cant find a pair of them to post on here. Here's the closest I can find, but mine's are white, grey swoosh, red air max at the back with a blue bit running alongside the Nike Swoosh. I will post a similar pair, there you go. Just change the colours, as I've been through 19 pages of Google and still cant find em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Evans Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 just purchased a shiny new pair of Adidas Stockholms for my wee jaunt to Ibronx next week Would love to post a photo but cant for the life of me figure out how to! Was going to wear my Adidas Dublins but didnt think the royal blue/orange would be a good choice;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forza Cuore Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Are you sure you're not thinking of the ZX 300? Cheers! Those are indeed the very ones I was thinking of originally.

Looks like the credit card is going to be hit with 2 pairs of Adidas this month You can never have too many pairs of Adidas. If i hadn't bought the ZX 500 (below) at the start of the summer, then i would've been tempted by those myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The People's Chimp Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 OK emo boy. Got some skinny jeans to go with them? Maybe a long floppy fringe like a girl as well? Nothing wrong with a bit of a fringe. I got a pair of these recently, but in different colours: I love my nikes, especially air force ones, and air max ones, but you can't beat a nice pair of adidas for going to the football, the history of the casuals etc obviously feeds into that.

Forza Cuore Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Sorry to dredge this up...again. Found cracking site for all Adidas addicts...it has so much more choice than the UK Adidas site. Slight problem is that they only send to US addresses (for$5). I'm emailing our friends in Houston asking for some favours.... http://www.shopadidas.com My missus is going to go spare!

Was going to wear my Adidas Dublins but didnt think the royal blue/orange would be a good choice;) Ah the cities range. Wore my Dublins at the game Saturday, took a bit of stick as they are very bright but I love them. Planning on giving the stockholms a run out on saturday at the bronx or maybe tobacco's. Love adidas trainers especially the re-issues. Wouldn't like to disclose how many pairs I own as it would probably make Emlda blush!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigaro Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Don't you have ankles?? Point your toes down the way and your feet get mysteriously narrower. My ankles are moderately unflexible. I used to swim and couldnt do frontcrawl kick due to it. I wouldnt wear them anyway. I like some space in my jeans. Not to look like a daft wee lassie. And why fatties wear them I'll never know! Also, they make your feet look side-show Bob-esque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
