I carried our kids coffin in these in 2017. They were his favourite pair of trabs out of about 70 odd that he had.

[7777]

Any other Adidas deerupt fans? I’ve bought two pairs in the last month and could easily buy tons more of the various colours

Yeah me, by far the comfiest pair of trainers I've ever owned!

Sorry for your loss, bet his collection was quality. I like the c/w in a Hamburg and London shoe, the London silhouette being similar to Brussels.

Ordered after midnight and most places had small sizes left, kept adding my size on sneakersnstuff and eventually updated and went into my basket. Be a longer wait like, also heard of quality issues, glue marks and stripes not cut correct.

Aye, I saw a photo close up of the stripes cutting not looking the best. Hopefully that’s just a small batch that’s happened to. I got the first pair from Hanon, they released them at 10pm instead of 11pm. Got the second pair from size.

I still have a pair of the London’s in Brussels colourway from a few years ago.

[Rattleduser]

Vienna and Rom are due this year, Vienna are gonna be a size? exclusive.

Vienna, rom and Oslo are what I'm interested in from the city series.

Maybe Bern if the c/w is a little less harsh than the last release and looked like these

[PROPER crazyemlyn72]

The feckin rom at last. Any pics or links for them?

[So… Howard Philips]

£37 at Tenerife Airport 

Were you wearing them when you broke your ankle?

Hiya, just out of curiosity where are you getting the info about upcoming releases? I've been googling around and can't find any info. Installed the size app too. Seriously I tried, but I don't use Facebook or Instagram or stuff like that.

normally share whats coming out or retweet the rumours.

few other accounts as well. I follow a few people, just their politics tend to be proper gammon and a lot of British flags in their name that sort of thing, had to stop following the majority of people to be honest.

[Rattleduser]

£36, bargain. Might get both.

My first pair of brussels arrived today. The quality definitely isn't as good as the koln and berlin. And they are a bit bigger than usual.

UPS delivering mine Tomorrow, not bad coming from Sweden. The stripe cut correct on yours?

The stripes aren't great.

[Barneylfc∗]

Got mine delivered today too. Haven't seen them yet though.

[Rattleduser]

The stripes aren't great.

I suspect it's the type of leather used and the cutting process struggles to give a clean cut, my spiritus looked similar and the leather used was supple compared to say a standard stripe, really is no excuse.

You bought more than one pair?

[campioni]

Aye, I sometimes double up on trainers if I really like them. But I'd also heard the brussels were big fitting so I ordered a pair in my normal size, 8.5 and then another half a size smaller. I'll probably send one pair back.

[Barneylfc∗]

Ah, I thought you were a trainee tout

You'll get a PM in a bit

No problems with my pair, stripes are boss, no glue marks and a nice short pile suede. A slimline construction with very little padding, that will be the reason why they feel a bit roomy for some.

My second pair just arrived. The stripes are a good bit better on these ones and thankfully they are the ones that fit better, the smaller size. The 8.5's will be going back.

[Son of Spion]

The stripes aren't great.

They do look a bit shoddy.

I assume they just use off-cuts for detailing like stripes and the leather used there is not of the best quality.

I used to work in a leather goods manufacturer making items for the likes of Polo / Ralph Lauren and other supposedly prestigious names. As I said, it just looks like they've used fairly poor quality off-cuts for those stripes. We used to make Polo Keyfobs and suchlike with those kinds of scraps.

If I remember correctly, it's called Belly Leather. It can have irregular thickness and is prone to wrinkling.
I've bought leather biker jackets in the past and I've noticed how the manufacturer has put the odd panel of belly leather in there to cut costs. 

Your new pair are looking good.

glad it's worked out for yer, shouldn't be a lottery to get a quality shoe

[RedSince86]

Travis Scott wore these unreleased Jordan 1's at the Grammys the other night and Nike's website went down right after his performance.

[Ziltoid]

The same Travis Scott who sported a Rush t-shirt from the Counterparts era. He can't be all that bad in his fashion sense then.

Picked these up in the Adidas flash sale today, got another pair also both 50% off.

Horrid.

Can't get behind most shades of green used on trainees to be honest so I'm not the target market I suppose. Been some stinkers recently.

Nice, they'll be comfy af. How much did you end up paying? I'm in the states, been stalking some for myself and my son, but can't get them under $100 ($126 seems to be bottom price actually)

Paid £80 a pair, I already have another pair and they are really comfy, almost paid £111 last night for them ones, couldn't believe my luck when I got the flash sale email.

I saw some dude in Argos today with a nice pair of Adidas on. I was gonna ask him what they were but the kids got in the way! They had eyelets (?) like trimm trabs but the front shape was more like gazelle. The sole on the back was a bit spikey. No name on the side next to the theee stripes. Realise that’s probably a shit description any ideas what they are??
