Alright lads.
My names Paul and I'm a uni student from Manchester. Decided to take the leap and move from just browsing the boards anonymously to signing up. Visited a few times before and fought the urge to sign up cause I knew the bank account couldn't handle the results!
Decided to take the leap now and get on here as I'm in desperate need of some new kicks. Sadly I only own one pair of supes but they have been my loyal servants for years now, still more comfy now then anything else I've ever had (picture
here). That said I'm a bit of an adidas loyalist, ever since I was a young lad and had adidas football boots I've preferred it to anything else.
I have very limited knowledge of supes (only the stuff I've picked up from reading up on here) so I'm pretty much here to listen and learn, so bare with me if I'm a complete plank at times

Yea they've seen better days for sure. They weren't so bad till last year when I went to a few events at Warehouse Project here in Manchester, by day it's and underground car park then they turn it into a club for the winter season on weekend nights, needless to say the weeks use as a car park leaves the floor full of shit like oil and what not, add to that thousands of people dancing and it all kicks up and coats your feet.
I'm studying Web Development with my chosen option as Computer Law, god knows what I was thinking when I picked that haha!

Greetings!
Welcome to SSDB, and yes you've gone through the looking glass now, you will be spending lots of money on adidas trainers that have three stripes and a shelltoe. 
Saying that, if you look hard enough there's plenty of decent pairs available for less than 30 notes.
It's the daft collabs from far away countries that cost much coin.
Web development? Can't see that ever taking off.

Wow, the first decent intro in a while, well done sir.
I'm sure you will find all you need to know here and will be spending money you don't have in no time.
To save you some time, don't ask about 35ths! You'll only find legit ones for sale from collectors on here or occasionally on ebay. You'll learn this over tiem anyway. And watch out for the fakers (we have a list

)
Welcome and enjoy.

I prefer to treat my ladies like I treat my supes. By keeping them in a box in the spare room and only getting them out occasionally.
