1. they are obviously dopeness.

2. Claire - i got them from 'sports & things' in Streatham, south london. opposite the train station. they have been open since 1989 and never put a single item on sale, which means they have a shop full of stock from 1989 to now. i got those about a month ago now.

3. U KNOW ABout MCFLY AND HIS CREP GAME. (although my Cross Trainers are a 1990 release-they were prob designed in the 80's)
i recently found out that Kanye West has bought the patent for that shoe (as the only pair in the world are the ones made for the film) so he can get 1 pair made for himself, then he plans to destroy the patent.

That sounds well good. Shame I'm prolly nowhere near london for the next months or maybe years....
But, do you come by there on a regular basis ish ?
If so, could you check if they got old Airwalks from the Disaster or Prototype series ? They were out from like 88 to 92 ish...and I m still after 2 certain special ones with lacesavers in size 11,5 or 12...

Or Claire, when you re in London again and intend to walk by, can you give me a shout beforehand ? I ld drop you some pictures of the 2 I m after...

Chee-rs.

thought I'd contribute. this is me..

I don't think i would wear them (more into lower and simpler shoes) but i appreciate the design and shoes themselves.

As for that store in Stret, i assume the Pumas have been removed quickish by london's Puma "heads"? coz i'd kill for black/white suedes or Grey white Uk8.5 etc etc ..........

u know what, no-one really knows about it. a guy called craig from sneaker freaker mag did an article on it once.

http://www.sneakerfreaker.com/feature/s ... -things/2/

its a really interesting place.. they used to be based in a tiny shop on streatham high road until about 98/99 when they moved into a closed-down Iceland supermarket down by the train station.. which means they have a basment the size of a supermarket floor which is (was-which i'm coming to) stacked with palettes of originals of the majority of nike/adidas/puma/british knights/fila etc..

so yeh, about 4 months ago the owners sold up to 'sports world' which is a budget chain of sports shops found in most town centres around london(and prob all around the uk..) and basically my mate and his cuz went down there and gained access to the stock rooms, picked out all of the good shit (spending near on 5 figures) and is planning to sell it on to collectors etc. i think they've got an ebay account which i'll slap in here for the sneaker heads once i find it.
