dunno.. plenty of re-sellers on ebay though most without any bids on them so im hoping they are not limited stock and they all end up out of pocket.
i think them all white braille camo ones i posted up there are better than the undft white ones.
so maybe they are limited but cause they look like they are nothing more special than a general release most people aint bothering. not seen em in the flesh, but for a 45th anniversary they do seem a bit underwhelming, maybe we have been spoilt in the past

There's still a few retailers selling them so not very limited at all really. The Superstar "golden age" is definitely behind us now, glad I started collecting when I did because based on recent offerings, I probably won't be buying much more.

glad to see resellers failing to profit from these. not the best collection ever, but maybe the 35ths set the benchmark too high

True say the 35th consorts are a hard act to follow but this just stinks of complacency, they're not even trying anymore. Then again, they don't really need to try too hard, there's enough people out there who will buy anything with a trefoil stuck on it, especially if it's a collab with some claat that no one's ever heard of.

Shellshock speaks the truth, as usual. I'm glad I got into buying a few more pairs of shoes when I did and caught all of those sweet, sweet vins.
I love the campus 80s almost as much as the superstar and the tail-off of supes matched exactly the release of some classy pairs there.

Adidas are taking the piss, I and many others on this site have been loyal shelltoe fans since the 80s. But none of these shoes were designed with us in mind, look at the way they've been photographed, fuckin Fairisle socks and wonky turn-ups? We all know which crowd these shoes are aimed at.

Have you seen the new Slave 1 Lego?  Awesome.


After all this time, I just can't get past an 80s style superstar, never bought a pair and don't think I will.


Give me a nice SS2 or SS1 anyday.
