Just For Kicks - Cluskey - 05-02-09
Sorry to be a pain and start so many new threads
Just wondering if anyone has any more info on said sneaks [in title].
I am thinking about getting a pair but i'm not sure if they are worth the £140, although it does say there is <100 made.
Cheers again,
Craig

Yeah, there may have only been 100 made but, to be frank, who gives a shit ?
They're all white with a pretty insole and some writing on the outside.
And who are Just for Kicks anyway ?
For Christ's sake, don't pay more than £40 for them cos anymore would be a waste of money.

i personally would love a pair of these but i would'nt pay that for them, if you have the money then go for it. have you seen the film?

They're nice, but not £140 nice. They usually sell for £50-70

Yeah I bid on a pair, went up to 40 quid but the ended up selling for 45 or summat. Nice enough but nowt special really.

Not worth it I don't think...Would you buy a pair of white/black striped supes if they had a blue dot on the shell, and were a 1/1 production? The limited thing is only a bonus as far as I'm concerned...take Tate's for example. Plain and simple, they are badass--and they still would be even if they had made 10,000 pairs of them. Sure the limited adds to the novelty, but it doesn't change the shoe at all.
I had the chance to pick these up locally while in Seattle for $70. I countered and offered the guy $50, he declined, so I passed

I'm glad i asked!
Think i had a mad streak when i posted it earlier.
Was looking around and though ' why dont i just buy 3 pairs instead of one!'
Anyway looking back on it they aren't the greatest, i guess i got hooked on the limited bit.

The glass case does add to the wonder.
RE: Just For Kicks - reid - 06-02-09
Not to be rude, but if you like em and think £140 is worth it, then shell out £140 for em. Personally, rarity and how much other people like a pair doesn't make much of a difference when I'm buying a new pair of supes - it's how much they are worth to me that matters.
If that makes no sense, sorry for the ramblings. I'm still half asleep

True, but sometimes people need someone to knock some sense into them.
If you were a mate of mine and you were about to marry some right ugly munter, I'd sodding well tell you !
£140 ? I got 2 pairs of 35th Consortiums for the same price !
Which would any of you rather have ?

I thought I put something about knowing if you were gonna get ripped off or not - seems it's not just my feet that've stopped working (had to go shovel coal in my dressing gown and g6s)
If something is slightly overpriced but you like em, there's nothing wrong with snapping them up (especially if they are hard to come by). If you don't like something, don't buy it just cos it's cheap.
RE: Just For Kicks - Cluskey - 06-02-09
I am now going to attempt to emulate mr.pure and bag 2 pairs of 35ths for the same price
