I did somewhat covet these Overkill 85s, but they sold out pretty much instantly

Spent more than I usually like to ($135) on these Nite Joggers, but happy with my decision. Super comfy Boost soles and already getting a lot of complements. To me, they're like a more nuanced alternative to the dadcore Yeezy thing that seems to be so popular lately.

those are nice

I also went outside both my price comfort zone ($120) and my style comfort zone (slightly techy looking knit sneakers with a thick white outsole), but I like the way they look and they are the most comfortable things ever

tombot come back, all is forgiven

Lol, that bad huh.

I wasn’t sure about them either but they look better on the foot.

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Thursday, 4 April 2019 22:53 (five years ago) link

lol not bad at all. maybe more suited to New Shoes though. I like to think this is a repository for exotic, new, in-demand styles

rip van wanko, Thursday, 4 April 2019 23:29 (five years ago) link

pure class

Got my kid to buy these.

find myself really wanting a pair of vintage john stockton-style avia high tops but they are not cheap on the internet. avia, get your shit together and make white basketball high tops again. ITS FREE MONEY

lol u are right of course but it's Avia, being out of touch is their whole thing

i buy a new pair of all-white tretorns every summer, they are great

adam, Tuesday, 16 April 2019 17:44 (five years ago) link

i'm kind of bewildered by their UK distribution strategy. they are in like zero shoe shops i.e. Size, Schuh, etc and have no shop of their own. i tried to buy my Nylites online but my size was sold out. however, John Lewis of all places had plenty of stock. i feel like these 80s European preppie/sporty brands like Tretorn and Benetton should be absolutely cleaning up but they only have these weird little outposts, or none at all.

Lil' Brexit (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 16 April 2019 20:09 (five years ago) link

i get mine off zappos in the US but it looks like they are making moves--available on madewell now which is like a j crew lifestyle offshoot.

adam, Tuesday, 16 April 2019 20:17 (five years ago) link

my size is ALWAYS sold out on their site...

Damn those NBs look great

nathom, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 17:09 (five years ago) link

Bought AirMax97 in black. Damn those are expensive. Lol

nathom, Thursday, 18 April 2019 09:47 (five years ago) link

nathom, Thursday, 18 April 2019 09:49 (five years ago) link

point of inquiry, how many pairs of str8 fire beautiful kicks in a year is too many. asking for a guy who really doesn't buy that many but got a pair of nite joggers last week and now wants more nice sneakers

I am on a limited income. I have ~str5 pairs of moderately-smoldering appealing kix. I buy three pairs a year, and I always throw out the crappiest pair when I get new ones.

rb (soda), Wednesday, 24 April 2019 17:39 (five years ago) link

i like the styling a lot but wish they didn't say "stranger things" and "1985" on them

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Friday, 14 June 2019 14:43 (five years ago) link

ya

lag∞n, Friday, 14 June 2019 14:52 (five years ago) link

and the name of the sneaker is the air tailwind 79

lag∞n, Friday, 14 June 2019 14:53 (five years ago) link

Oh F. I totally didn't see the Stranger Things on it. This is a no.

Yerac, Friday, 14 June 2019 21:50 (five years ago) link

sneaker that hits you over the head with precious vintageyness also carrying the label of a show that hits you over the head with precious vintageyness is just a bridge way too far

longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Friday, 14 June 2019 22:01 (five years ago) link

I love nylon and mesh on sneakers and want more of that.
