So I got the blue croc skin 80s. Couldn't risk passing them up, and CT still had 11s. Need to update my collection thread soon, got a few pairs need adding on there.

I thought they looked good from the pics, and they are just as nice in the flesh. The pic makes it look like the pattern is painted on, but it is actually textured leather. I love em, and the colour is awesome. One of the nicest supes to come out in a while in my opinion.
Go get some mate.

Great pickup for a vintage pair.
Is it me or is the shell more "chunkier" on the pre-2000 supes?

yes, they are chunkier so to speak. the "slope" on the toe is more abrupt if that makes sense.

Nice one olskool! I have a pair as well. Sadly though, mine started flaking immediately on first wear...

i had to do some scrubbing on the white stripes and the tongue and got some flaking as well.
to snag them for a mere US $35. they are in really good shape. some yellowing on the shell. lace quality is wack, but will work for now. these are 1997's ![[Image: IMAG1073_zpsbd5d7e3f.jpg]](http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc179/ebermerced/adidas/IMAG1073_zpsbd5d7e3f.jpg)
