Afternoon All
When I were a lad I used to go to the football matches and try my best to stop anyone standing on my Gazelles, Sambas and Kicks. I must have gone through about 10 pairs of reds and blues G's in a 5 year period. Role forward 20 years and I continued the trend with superstars (well for the last 6 or so years anyway). I never actually thought that anyone collected them until I found this site and was blown away by the collections that people have.
I don't have much of a collection myself, 6 pairs, and they are mostly shite but since spending the last 3 days reading through this site that is going to change and it has started with some gum toe skates from MrShoeshotta and I'm well impressed.
One day I may have enough to take some pics and submit them up until then I'll keep plodding along.
I only wish I had never put any of my Superstars in the washer - oh well you live and learn.

Angolan Blades - the worst of both worlds.
