Casual Shoe thread 2, in honour of long lost Casual Shoe thread 1....

[Skizz]

I prefer to customize my trainers - here's my Tn's I did, they are a bit ********ed now as they are my "walking to football" trainers

Nice! I wish they had more TN's here in the states! I so want a pair!

[Skizz]

Well they brought out the new style Tn's here, and nobody really liked them, so they just went back to the old design and started selling them again! Haha!

They are really nice trainers though.

I love TNs! They are also my walking to football trainers and are a lovely shade of mint green! :D

id take the Jordans, based on looks

but the huaraches(if thats what they r) r probably way more comfortable and dont look bad either

[thebigman]

air max elite i think

yeah they seem the 'better' option for comfort and support

[red & wite army]

I think few black shoes or bball shoes look better then the white one - the whites are better imo.

[Case]

Not a fan of 14s (coming from a guy who owns 15s what that means tho!), but that colorway is quite fresh, make a nice tennis shoe!
The Max's are nice, gotta say im not a fan of the hurache 2k5/6 and these are prolly a hotter alternative, especially in the simple black with white swoosh style. Reminds me how I came up with my ultimate pred whilst watching Man U... May keep it under hat as may get some butchers tools out and "develop" a pair from my own stock....

[thebigman]

ok guys

im gonna cop the black elites

[appleCORR7]

Bigg, are your TNs pink and white?! Or is it just the light? :confused:

[thebigman]

are tns the natural successor to standard air max?

[appleCORR7]

Pretty much EVERY pair of Nike Air with the bubble that i have had, I've managed to burst just by walking on them. I had some Nike Air Max and they just use to make like a squeak when i walked on them. I've also burst one of the bubbles in my TNs. Bahh!

appleCORR

[thebigman]

thats 1 of the reasons im worried about the elites

does air do anything or is it the suspension shit inside the bubble?

i had some airs i popped on purpose when i was like 15 and they squeeked to shit

[appleCORR7]

I think the air bubbles just act as a shock absorber as well as the supports within the bubble itself.

I never popped mine it must have just been my fat foot!

airs squeak with age and the "air" actually diffuses thru the casing via equilibriation, so over time they gonna be less bouncy anyways...talk under the insoles does help the squeak tho...
Nah the "tn" is just one of many variations on the max libne, tho why tailwind is shortened to tn and not, say, tw I'll never know....
was looking at a pair in sports soccer today, nice, in the CORRECT colorway (black/red/white) BUT cudn't justify £70 on shoes sooooooo mainstream....
Funny, I totally disagree with tbm about £100+ being a rip-off for soccer shoes, YET think £70 sportsoccer reduced priice for runners is ridiculous!

What on earth are those shoes for?:eek:

I saw somebody wearing them on TV in the Pompey game in the dugout, but I thought it was perhaps a girl physio!

Not meaning to be rude, but those are crude!
