Wow when I read this on Hypebeast, I thought this is so fresh for the sneaker community! Apparently its coming under the JD Sports brand - whatever that means
July 2010 a retail shop should be opening...hit up the website
footpatrol.co.uk (something like that) for updates along the way! Considering some shops closing these past few yrs i.e. Goodfoot, Provider, etc, this is welcome news! Chuffed to say the least...hopefully JD handles it proper...

[Sweet_Kicks]

Yeah the JD group bought the rights to the name and are bringing it back, JD are flying at the moment so should do a good job of it, and hopefully do it justice.

YAY! Footpatrol is my favourite group!

i sure hope this comes along with a nice adidas collab!

[mr.pure]

Old news.
It's gonna be shite.
They might have bought the name but they won't have the staff and the heads behind them to do kick ass collaborations.
The Manager is sound as a pound apparently but the amount it will differ from Size remains to be seen.
All in all I think it ain't a good thing.
Footpatrol remains dead as far as I'm concerned.

Well that's that bonfire truly urinated on

[Lorrie]

Mr. P has it right, methinks.

[kt0626]

Poo on that then Thx P for that bright news! I'm bummed now...maybe hang out and have a pint w/ Mr Green, now that he's benched...

[pukkabruv]

will pop in, see what its saying, but if you want quality adidas you can get it at No6, like pure said, its the staff and their knowledge that make the place not just the name, and as JD have only bought the name...

[wappersha]

All very true, but hopefully they'll employ some people who are actually enthusiastic about trainers, i'd apply for a transfer if I was in London. Hopefully, i'll still get staff discount there anyway

[SenorDragon]

Wow, first I've heard of this. I didn't realize the name was bought out by JD, hopefully they give the folks who are managing it a good amount of freedom to run the shop how it used to be run.

[kwimbie]

sounds like a big corp name trying to back door into some street cred.

[mr.pure]

^ Innit.

[dj_wildthing]

Fingers crossed they'll re-issue the 35th Footpatrols, only this time in red suede instead of green.

I know it's not gonna happen, but please take notes, adidas, it's not a bad idea

PS: you also need to do them in blue, that way Pureski will be too. And me. I want both red and blue suede Footpatrols. And brown. And maybe black too.

Am I suddenly asking to much?

[mr.pure]

Yeah, just a bit.

[spitey]

needy one would say......
