Sorting through my collection and making room for new additions, so these are the first to go.

Hardly worn them since I bought them so in overall good condition, other than some mid sole grime which I am sure will clean up.

UK 9, no box.

£30 + postage to UK if interested before I stick em on t'eh bay.

cheers

Ok, so my first little dabble for a long time with anything other than Adidas.

I feel dirty and ashamed, but I do like them!

Nothing too dramatic to ease me in.....

Hey All,

Snagged these some time ago. I have never worn them. When they arrived, I was excited to get them on my feet. When I did, was disappointed. First off, they fit like US10 maybe even a US10.5. Very spacious and roomy inside for a US9, so they just don't fit right on me. And I guess it's normal for the Safety series but the shell feels/fits like "steel toe" boot. It's solid!! The color is really nice though. These things are mint. US$75 including shipping and they're yours if you live in the US. International shipping will have to add a few bucks.

Here's the description from the ebay listing.....
*****
Part of the sample sale collection I am offering these adidas safety promodel shoes in an impossible to find colorway of grey and green. These are amazing shoes! Impossible to find and in absolutely mint condition. These shoes are made from a thick leather which has a texture effect which gives it an elephant skin style. These also feature the Oil resistant sole which is common on adidas Safety model shoes.


These are sample shoes in brand new unworn condition, they do not come with a box. These are a US Mens size 9, which is equal to a womens size 10. These shoes measure 11 1/2" from heel to toe when measured along the bottom of the sole with the back of the heel pushed up against a wall. They measure 4 7/8" wide at the widest point.
*****end of ebay description*****

As you can see here, the shoe is a bit longer than the US9 that I have on today. Not the best pic to show. I couldn't hold the camera steady today I guess, but trust me, they are longer than a regular US9....

As you can see here, the "shell" is longer than a typical "shell" as compared to the Supe that I have on today....

But they are in mint condition. Will be hard to find matching laces to flip if you wanted to match the green.

Just not my style. I'm really bummed. Was hoping that I snagged up something special. Send me a PM if interested or have more questions or need more pics. They were delivered to my work and I never even took them home. I was ready to rock them on the way home Sad My loss = your gain if you're interested.

I’m sure that none of you remember me so i thought it was time for a re introduction as i haven't been active of late (working far to hard)

My Name is Will (everyone calls me Boz) and i now live in essex....don't hold it against me!

Been collecting trainers seriously for about 6 years now. When I first introduced myself here I had about 120 pairs (not just Adidas superstars) and now I have cut some of the fat away. I have sold or thrown away most of my n**e collection which basically consisted of uptowns and air maxes. And a few of my puma’s and reboks. Needless to say my collection is not as healthy as it once was. not sure how many pairs I have at the minute but a good estimate is about 70-80 and I’d say 40 - 50% are supes.

You guys have helped me get a few pairs that I have been looking for that I missed out on. Big thank you to everyone who help out!

I am also a customiser. I have a thread in the custom section so if you like you can see some of the stuff that I have done. I have been a bit quite on this front recently. I am working on a new pair for a mate and should be done soon. Ill post when complete.

Looking forward to getting back involved

Cheers

So...

I've noticed that the laces on an adidas Campus are thicker/heavier than a Superstar.... Any of you lads know where I can find a similar replacement?

Any help is most appreciated.

Cheers.
