I picked these up the other day. Bit of an impulse buy but once I saw them in the flesh I was smitten. I know what people think but I don't care, only a real man can wear glittery shoes! You don't really see it anyway.
Nice work G36 and Scud!

They do look lovely in photos but when I had them in my hand I just couldn't get over the glitter.

Way I see it is I'm probably never gonna be lucky enough to own a pair of Unions but I love the colour of them so much and these are about as close as it'll get for me!
Embrace the glitter! I reckon there's a little bit of Liberace in us all, you just gotta let him out

There's some TL's that are pretty close to unions in a not really but kinda way

I'm skipping them meself but from the pics i do like them.
I'll sit bk and wait and see if size? end up selling them off for £30pair in the sale like they did with the 1st vin 80s releases then i'll pick em up
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em

Nice Pickup SS, put some big phat white laces in them and they'll look sterling.
and not at all in the least bit gay. Hiyyyaaaaa!

I don't know why you say that Shellshock.
How much were they ?
Cos I've seen plenty of Unions go for less than £200 so you're only looking at maximum 3 pairs of regular releases.
