People have been posting in this thread every single year since 2006 so I'm just following a pattern here. Razz

Though the name of the thread is Adidas superstar history there's very little talk about Adidas superstar history imho.
But what happened to that Dsevern guy and his dad the superstar creator? That could've been interesting.

What was really the original meaning of the rubber shell toe? Was it to protect the toes from bouncing basket balls or what?

They were designed to protect you from electrocution if your basketball ever ended up in one of those dangerous sub-stations from them adverts in the 70's and 80's.

Damn that's a brutal advert. Effective but brutal. You couldn't air something like that here. It might scare the children. Better a dead kid than a traumatized one.

These kicks need their own theme music. walk

People of a certain age and born in the UK on here will remember many more, keep away from train tracks, chip pan fires, polished carpets, not to mix cross ply and radial tyres Wink

I think they aren't shown anymore for that reason - "They'll scare children, there're too traumatic!"

Which is entirely missing the point.

fc wants them all back
