Has any body read a book called Pitch Invasion ? and if you have is it any good ?

Just bought a copy, but not read it yet

Sounds like it's all about the history of brothers Adi and Rudi Dassler, from starting out until their differences

well, as some of you know, i'm looking for the Pommier Superstar Vulcan. i live in Taiwan now and they are not available in store at this time. but i found the Taiwan 2008 catalog online, here: http://www.adifans.net/2007/mag/Catalog/08SSOG/21.jpg

it's on the bottom right of that image, showing that it'll be in released in April. but does anyone notice that it doesn't have the red line near the bottom of the sneakers? is it just a picture thing or it's really 2 different design? personally i dig that red line and want them and getting them online at a US site will cost pretty much the same as getting them in store.

or has adidas ever done this before? extremely minor changes for certain area market?

Hey guys and gals,
I've been looking for some rare Superstars and came across this forum, so I thought I would join, I have a big thing for Superstars, although I only have 4 pairs, but i'm keen to get more, and more, and more, and then some more. At the mo I have a pair of Neighbourhood Consortiums, Red Hot Chilli Pepper Music Edition, Adicolor Queens, Run DMC Music Edition, I've also got a pair of Smiths and a pair of Half-Shells. I have been stung in the past with fakes, wanted a pair of Rockerfella Consortiums, and got some that were super-fake, and I havent been able to find the guy since!!!!! Anyway, helloVery Happy

There is a new series starting tonight on Ch4 @ 8pm about.... well the Fake Trade.

Something that we are all interested in, dunno if it will have anything on it about trainers but I'm sure it should be pretty interesting.

Also check out the program afterwards, Masters of the Universe a profile of Stephen Hawking should be good as well.

Hi,

Been in to my shells for a couple of decades now. I was skate kid back in the eighties when shells weren't popular and you could pick them up for £15. Good old days, back then.

I've not had a pair for a few years, and have realised I need them back in my life so thought I'd join here and get the latest info on whats what in the Superstar world.

Only ever wear my shells with fat laces Smile

Ta,

SG

first sample of a shoe made for c-law from fabric from his collaboration. thought you lot might find them interesting,

slight differences from standard, slimmed down upper , height and width, less padding in the heel, cut down ankle (like a vintage)


will make sure i post the actual shoes done for c-law which should be based on a vintage with the nicer (imo) sole unit

Found this neat sight just now-- 6pm.com

Some have probably heard of it, it looks like the extension of Zappos.com

More of the outlet type. I was pretty impressed with the size selection, too. I snagged a pair of these http://www.6pm.com/n/p/p/7240469.html In the white/white/black- will post pics when they come. It is a PAIN in the ass to navigate this site...if you want to look at the Adidas section, click on the "see all originals" on that link of the shoe I got to see more...then go down to mens and they have a few selections. Interesting Limited edition halfshells they have there too...lol.tongue7

Unfortunately, I'm not sure if they do ship to the U.K. since it appears to be an extension of Zappos. Sorry if that's the case! sad5

This guy is selling a pair of Superstars that I want. Anyone know anything about him? I can link the page too...the price isn't obscenely good, but it is a nice discount...I was looking to get these shoes from Mr.shoeshotta, but this "rhythmquest" guy sells a lot of other shoes too. So if I don't get these from him it would still be good to know if he is legit or not.
