These have been worn a handful of times. And never with the innersoles in as they a tad small for me. They are a size UK9. I bought them in New York from Alife about 4 years ago. They cost a small fortune. The reason they did is because they are covered in swarovski crystals. They are made from canvas and the crystals are set into that. All the crystals are still attached; none of them have fallen off. The Adidas sign and on the tongue are stitched in silver thread. They come with Adidas shoe trees and with the clear plastic Adidas box

EBAY

real? fake?

[mr.pure]

Yep, they real too !
No idea how many were made.
Another pair from the same time were made in collaboration with Louis Vatton ?
Seems a bit pricey for something with so high a cheese factor.
Guaranteed to get beaten up if you ventured out in 'em.

i would of though these were fake TBH...

they cant be easy to make!

and i agree, as if you could wear these outside mroe than once a year!

I saw these on one of those lifestyle programmes on one of the music channels.
They are real and Missy Elliott bought a pair for $5000. Not many pairs in existance.

[mr.pure]

More money than sense springs to mind.

If you've got it then flaunt it.
It also said the Missy Elliott has around 5000 pairs of trainers in her collection. She's probably got alot more now due to the Adidas endorsment.

Id love to see her collection!

Mr.pure, if you had more money than sence would you spend 5 grand on a pair?

I WOULD!!

[mr.pure]

I haven't got more than but I was going to pay £3000 for the 35th shoe.
Luckily the price came down.

[scratchandsniff]

How much did you pay in the end?

[mr.pure]

Most recently I sniped at £914 and they went for about £1500.
I bid 3k when I had it but only the 900 lately so could'nt go any further.
Some day I'll get a pair.

[scratchandsniff]

You got any pics of your collection so we can see what you've got?

[mr.pure]
