Hello.

My name is Niklas, 21y old from the suthern part of Sweden.

I bought my first pair of Superstars when I was around the age of 10 - a all black standard pair. It was realy fashion back then where I lived, but after a cuple of months the next fashion came along, and I tossed my Superstars.

The last few years I have been growing tall like crazy, so finding a pair of 12,5s that I like is not easy (Since apparently only 1 of 24 pairs orderd buy the stores is that size!). I turned to a "Bigfoot"-page, and wrote all the measurements of my foot.

3rd shoe to show up - The Superstars Im wairing right now - Identical to the ones I had over 10 years ago (Well, twice the size Razz). Instant love!

My current project is finding a good store that ships to Sweden (Or even is a Swedish store), and have my size (UK 12,5 or the swedish size 47,1/3).


I also have a love for Stan Smiths, but the Superstars fit my foot a tiny bit better! Got a few pair of each of the 2 now, and im planning on keep collecting both =)

welcome, another big foot, lol join the club mate.
it can be a real prick finding larger sizes, but the benefit sometimes is that if theres a popular or rare model thats released, everyones fighting for the average sizes and the bigger ones are untouched.

yeah SNS www.sneakersnstuff.com would be your best bet man.

Thanks for the welcomes Smile


About SnS, the only pair they have in my size is the standard white ones with black stripes, and they are not that cheap eighter!

Welcome along, fella. SNS, if they happen to have stuff in your size, provides good service and fast shipping. With your size though I'd recommend US ebay and the US specialist sites as they tend to have bigger sizes.

For instance, http://www.sportiela.com has decent prices and good size selection.

Welcome to SSDB Niklas. Once you've been here a minute or two you'll see that having big feet don't mean a thing when it comes to mad collecting. Ain't that right BABYLATIN? Laughing
