New member checking in - jerry007 - 10-06-10

Hi all..I have already had my wrists slapped for posting before introducing myself so not off to a good start.

Anyway im Jerry from S.London and got into Adidas from my school days in the late 70's with "Kick" being my first pair.Then when i started working my wardrobe and shoe collection grew.

As i got older i diversed until last year (wont disclose my age) got back into it and tracked down some harr to find pieces to bring me back up to date.

I must admit i do not have or have had any superstar trainers,only the tracksuit,so i guess i will be banished to the "other trainers" section,but am sure i will not be alone.

Greetings

Jerry

Nope, I'd say every member who posts regularly has at least one pair of adidas superstar.

Some members have more than ten pairs. They like to collect them.

Cheerio.

Yeah, not much point being in here if you don't have any Superstars.

Sorry, but I have to disagree with this statement. I feel you can love and appreciate Superstars without owning a single pair and conversely, owning a bunch of pairs doesn't necessarily mean you like the Superstar more than the next guy. Granted, I can see it being a bit strange to be here without any supes since most of us have several pair but hey, if you appreciate the Superstar and contribute to our community, by all means, enjoy your stay. Oh, and welcome.

And I have to disagree with you.
If you don't own any Supertars but you "appreciate" them, just not enough to actually buy any, then there is no fucking point in you being here !

Hi Jerry. Tough crowd here.

Just don't offer to buy 80 80s in 80 days, because that will get nearly get you banned.

RE: New member checking in - streak - 11-06-10

Let's get this straight. This is a Superstar forum, not an other adidas forum.
We collect and share the love of the shelltoe here.
If you have none, and have no intention of having any, they I would suggest joining another forum.. CT perhaps?
Oh and matching your clothes that much is just ghey..

RE: New member checking in - MJF - 11-06-10

Got to agree with Pure on this one - jesus at least buy one pair

You'd have thought "home of the adidas superstar" would be enough of a clue to people, but clearly not

We'll have to agree to disagree then. I know in my case, I was a big fan of the Superstar quite a while before I got my first pair. Was it because I didn't appreciate them enough? No, it was because I simply didn't have the means to buy some. I was 11 years old and it took me quite a while to scrape up the funds to buy my first pair.

I don't know jerry007 any more than the next fella, but for all I know he may have come here looking for info to get his supe collection going. In that case, as the premier Superstar place on the web, what's wrong with helping someone new to the supe craziness we're so familiar with? Again, I don't know the guy and in general, I like to give folks the benefit of the doubt rather than trying to burn them at the stake right away.

I dunno, I guess you need to figure out why you're here jerry007. Are you here as a fan of the Superstar, or Adidas in general? If you're a Superstar fan, you'll likely enjoy your stay but if its more the latter, like streak mentioned, you may be better off at crooked tongues.

I aint rich.. by a phuckin long way, but as collecting things go superstars are really cheap, so i dont understand how you could really like something but not own any... even an 11 year old could afford a pair of superstars if they really liked them

---

unless its like me and puma clydes, i think they look really good but dont own any, cause i dont think they suit me.. but then i wouldnt join a puma forum

RE: New member checking in - mr.pure - 11-06-10

That's my point Senor, he could afford trainers but didn't bother to buy any Superstars so he clearly isn't that bothered.
And he said he'd be inhabiting the other Adidas section of the forum thereby showing little interest in acquiring any Superstars.
All things being told, this ain't the forum he's been looking for.
