Hi all, newbie from the UK here... - isolator42 - 25-06-08

Just another retro-obsessed, thirty something, ex-80s kid who never finished growing up. All Rubik's cubes & boomboxes, me...

Amazing, there's a forum for everything on the Internet, eh?

Here's my little story:
I'd bought some Adidas Samba Supers 'cos I've always had black trainers & fancied a change from my usual chioce of Nikes (a certain Run DMC song helped this choice). The Sambas are nice enough, but then I saw that the shell-top was the preferred Adidas for Joseph, Darryl and Jason (God rest his soul).
I Googled to find some "Run DMC" type Adidas & I happen across this place. I saw the Run DMC special edition trainers & was sold - I had to have some, even though they're white ("white with black stripes, the ones I like to wear when I rock the mic" so the song goes - that's a recommendation for me right there).

...so that's me Smile

Welcome isolator42, be careful on the Run DMC's as 99% of the pairs out there
(especially on e-bay) are fake so check in here before buying a pair so you don't get burnt.
