Just bought a pair of Adidas Dragon. At what stage does it become socially unacceptable to wear trainers down the boozer?
I use to have a pair of Diadora Borgs as a yoot. I'm sure they were called Borg Leader or am I making that up ? It's my age.
I also have a pair of Diadora hero's in grey, unfortunately I could get the same luminous colour I had in the '80's
When I was younger, I always wore Adidas Kicks, then in my 20s I wore Converse when I wasn't wearing Para boots. These days (some years later) I really like Adidas Kicks still, although those Achill look just as good assuming they are leather and not that gay suede style stuff. Probably Black or Blue Adidas of various types in fact as they are all samey. Some of the brown leather ones can look decent too. I may just buy some this week now you've got me thinking. I dabbled with some black adidas Beckhams last time as they were on offer at a really low price, but they are totally battered. Actually, I may buy some Converse All-stars too if they still do them.
Some decent pairs on here and they're pretty cheap http://www.mandmdirect.com/01/details/AO889/adidas-Originals-Mens-Rom-Trainers-White-Blue-Gum
