[TAT 70]

Went for a beer sunday night & 1 of my mates is
head of security for New Order.
He knows i like my sneaks & he mentioned that
`Hooky` had shown him some Adidas Hacienda
trainers.They came with a piece of dance floor
from the now shut club.A little map & a load of
pics from the clubs hay day.
As anyone heard of these or maybe even seen
them ?

[sin`pl]

[Lorrie]

they're a y-3. super rare, from what I understand.

[TAT 70]

Could be mate.
He was meant to be getting a pair
but didn`t manage to get em off of
him.
He said they were a shelltoe

[Lorrie]

no shell on that toe

& the box is shaped the same as the hacienda too!

Here's a link! Although according to the link the Bass Guitarist from New Order should be called "Cooky"

Peter Cook (not sure why he had this honor).

Probably cause he bought the rights to the name `HACIENDA`.
He also has the old club doors as his front doors at his house.
So sorry to put them up ,but my mate thought they were adidas
as New Order are sponsored by adidas.

not shells but interesting though. i like a little story.....

Tat, are you from Manchester?

If so get yourself to the Urbis before February, there is a Hacienda exhibition celebrating 25 years of the club, the front doors of the club are there to walk through (maybe Hooky will put them back on his house later?) loads of memorabilia (including the trainers), video footage, and music, excellent if you have interest in the place, Manchester music and Anthony H Wilson's legacy. I plan to go again before it closes as it was packed when I went on the opening weekend in July.

I think the trainers are horrid, shame it wasnt a 'Hacienda' Vintage Superstar they released. How good would that be..
