I do also have a pair of North Face goretex walking shoes for wet weather use.

Can you recommend these, and have they stayed properly waterproof for a decent period of time. I walk the dog about 4 miles a day and then about 15 miles a day when on hols and have had trouble finding boots/shoes that remain waterproof for long.

I have a few pairs of Adidas, can't help not buying them but I don't really like shoes and I wear work boots for five days a week, so it's nice to wear something different when I'm not working.

In my Adidas collection I have.
2 pairs of Stan Smiths
2 pairs of Gazelles
ZX 750 ( these are really comfortable)
Milano
Spezial
I have got a pair of Diadora, but I prefer Adidas.

Looking forward to some better weather so I can wear some of them again, don't like wearing trainers walking about in the rain, I usually wear Rockport boots for that.

Tigers mid-ankle boots at the gun wharf outlet last week, for SEVEN pounds. Bought three pairs.

Missed the boat when these came out, didn't realise they would sell out so quickly.

I like collecting them, it's a hobby I like to indulge in. A bit like you and smug comments.

Fair enough - I wasn't looking to be judgemental. each to their own!

[MENTION=5200]Buzzer[/MENTION] and his Onitsuka Tigers will have a lot to add to this thread.

I'm currently at a modest 8 pairs for causal wear (and 3 additional pairs for actually running in). Most are Adidas shell toes of one variation or another, but I have a couple of pairs of New Balance too - a classic pair of 540s and a more modern style I bought to schlep around the Orlando theme parks in.

Funds permitting, I could go out now and spend thousands on trainers very easily.


it has to be adidas superstars for me

I did a thread on trainers similar to this a while ago.
Was slated for my choice of wearing Converse, colluding to the point that trendy vicars wore them :eek:
So here goes my choice for my new pair of Vans Atwood trainers :angel:

Same here! Got a pair in dark blue for Christmas a couple of years back and they're fantastic. Not particularly trendy but very well made.

For the gym, I always wear Sketchers. Can't fault them: although the maybe lack the support around the sides of my feet, at least they're lightweight and allow my skin to breathe.
