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.

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.

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.

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

there are plenty of non-Stranger Things branded versions of the Tailwind 79

I am looking at the colors of the regular ones and the only ones that are interesting are the yellow and red ones. I hate how they put out good styles and relegate them to blue and white, red and white, black and white.

i want these extremely vanilla boring ones but they are sold out everywhere

These are totally outside the parameters of what I normally wear but they were $28 at the outlet mall and I was enamored. They come with pink laces for extra ridiculousness. https://assets.adidas.com/images/w_600,h_600,f_auto,q_auto:sensitive,fl_lossy/67c28862542b46f7979aaa2b012cd7a6_9366/Crazychaos_Shoes_Blue_EF3657_01_standard.jpg

If the Betsy Ross Flag, the flag of the American Revolution, is too offensive for Nike to commemorate The 4th of July maybe Nike should go with this... seems to be more in line with their views. pic.twitter.com/prAyOwTOau— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) July 3, 2019

I wore the last sneakers displayed pretty much every day for the last 3 years, so definitely time for something slightly new.
