I had the G. Vilas with a pale blue puma sweep thingy on the side.  Trying to remember what they were called.  I only bought them because some guy in a BMX mag was wearing them.

Oslo, chuck out the NBs fella - you need some of these.....

 I was considering these because they still make em in Lancashire. Think I'm past wearing brightly coloured running trainers though.

Check these bad boys out.




Forget classic trainers for a moment, these look like the ones in Back To The Future 2 which tighten automatically. I am still waiting for them Nike so hurry up!!

A classic never dies, and I always find myself going back to the trusted Converse sneakers!

Pair of New Balance with a Stone Island tag on the laces?

Yours for only £400 if you can find them. They are taking the piss.

Some div that was never involved in the casual culture will splash out for them thinking they are the dogs b*llocks.

They are fcuking orrible and way off the mark.

If they was just NB then worth a look at,as for sure they would not be 400 sheets

Never really got liked the Adi runners, my favourites from that period were these Nike waffle-sole



And the best tennis shoe I had were these Puma G Vilas



With special mention to the Nike Wimbledon



After that it all went a bit wrong as knockers led me astray and I had a few years of Converse, DMs, and Pony hi-tops.

My trainer of choice these days is the Adidas Spezial - available in loads of colours so you can make sure they match your jacket



I've got a pair similar to them top ones, called 'Nike Cortez', I've had them about 3 years, worn them twice because I think they look daft on my feet lol.

Not classics, yet.

I like these, no branding, no advanced features, just thick real hide and a handstitched sole. Between a trainer and a comfort shoe, they are a bit dear though, so perhaps not.

For me they have a few too many eyelets. No doubt a quality product but at £200 you've got to really want them. I'm not that keen but if they put them in the sale maybe.

Brooks Beast

THE VERY BEST!

This is the 2013 model - would love to find the original version again!

I've run some serious miles at serious pace over the years as a young man with these bad boys!
