There’s also incredible discounts on 2s on Sneakersnstuff and BSTN (last time I checked).

What’s with these Aldi trainers man? I’ve seen two in the wild over the past few months (specifically the bright yellow ones with blue and red detail).

I could have picked some up in-store over summer but didn’t realise they were some sort of cop 😂

97s are dope oi

THIS x100.

I’m so glad I just drew a line under J1s after buying my first pair. Don’t get me wrong, some designs are dope but they are not at all comfy for me and the hype just feeds on itself.

I am much more focused now on buying stuff that is a) comfortable; b) can be matched easily; and c) adds variety or something different to my rotation (I don’t want to end up with five pairs that are almost the exact same colourway, or ten variations of the same shoe).

There’s AF premium models which use better leather and don’t lose their shape. I have a pair I bought 2020 that is going strong and they’re my daily beaters in autumn/winter.
