Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted July 2, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted July 2, 2019 I'm not big on Sambas normally, they usually have those massive tongues that look shit but these are more like Gazelles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Monkee Posted October 12, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted October 12, 2019 I saw these black and red/orange Converse on the front page of their website but can’t actually find them anywhere. They have all black ones but not these ones. I’ve tried Googling but just can’t find them. Any help?  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either they haven’t released yet or it could be a store exclusive. Often Schuh or Office in the UK or Journeys in the US have exclusive colours. But I can’t find that colour way either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rule One Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) @Devon Malcolm On an average pair how long do your Adidas Gazelle soles last? They had some sweet ones on sale at Oi Polloi today but I can't get over the dog shit colour soles and the flimsy feel of them. I'd have about 10 pairs by now if I could force myself to just buy a pair. I had to back off my interest at Adidas Oslo's on sale at Size too because the soles were crumpling up just holding them. Being a fat bastard, I can't justify paying a good whack for stuff that will only last a month at best because of the easy wear breakdown. I'm usually stick to Adidas LA Trainer's because I like the look and they're durable but Adidas keep changing the style/materials up and they're producing less and less of the good stuff. I've got to stop buying Jordans, I've had around 15 pairs in the last 12 months and I've only kept 3 pairs at most. Edited January 15, 2020 by Rule One Can't form a sentence/brain is fucked.

I have worn them at least every other day for 10 months and the boost sole is still comfy. I highly recommend shopping of those sites, especially if you end up scuffling your shoes after a few weeks anyway.

Gazelles seem quite hardy, Hamburgs less so. I didn't buy any Trimm Trabbs because they seemed very lightweight. I'd say Sambas are probably the hardiest that I own.
