good arent they mate..

I had these when I was 10.. but in blue, and unfortunately they only list upto size 5 for the blue ones.. but these red ones are available in man sizes.. but 125 quid for some trainers normally 85 is my limit

Don't do it mate, can't justify 125 quid just for them!

Where you finding all these old skool shoes anyway? Got a link/site, I can't find any in the crap shops round here!

What model are they then Westy, must admit that Blue one's would look better, but what about the Nike Air Max 90's or something the other day?

Need to find some Reebok's or Nike Quartez's, much more old skool!

the ones pictured are Nike Air Max 90

cant find those ones anywhere else except Ebay.. but 125 quid

Seen some VERY similar for 45... but they are currently out of stock.. and will be for another 14 days as I just phoned them. Im impatient and cant wait that long..

for Reebok's or Nike Quartez's just search on ebay... doubt they will have any as you obviously have bad taste in trainers

Doesn't matter how much they cost, look at Hacket and Fred Perry shirts, Ł65 for a polo shirt, still worn by chavs

Westy, All i'm saying is they will look great with your track-suit when sporting them outside your local shopping centre surrounded by 14 year old birds in pink track-suits

As they are rare you can be king of the townies then

P.S. I have some Burberry cufflinks (They are nice ones though )

they're not bad. I dont think i'd wear them though, just not my thang. More of an Adidas 3 stripe man, or curently wearing in a few pairs of KSwiss. Only ever had Airs to go running in.

Just dont let me see you in them, i have this uncontrollable urge to tread on pure white trainers, its like a red rag to a bull
