came up on ebay, replaced my murdered out ones that i've been wearing for two years :

i'm guessing you like these a lot if you had another pair for two years and got another? how's the cushion/support? there's a dope looking pair on eBay that's priced well that i've been eyeing

support is decent but swapping the insole is necessary since the one that comes with them is bullshit. they fit like a glove and are super flexy though.

Paco, Boost is pretty great in terms of comfort. As long as Kanye hasn't worn them, they come up cheap on the 'Bay or outlets pretty regularly and Adidas is slowly finding ways to make it look less hideous.

I wear these in a variety of colors. They are really comfortable.

but as it is becoming winter and I can walk in the woods at lunch I will switch to these

Saw this randomly on Instagram... Dunno if is legit but its a new Palace Shoe. Looks like a classic silhuette with a Pure Boost Sole.

^^^ meh, I'd much rather the first release ttytt. Skate brands + "other shoes" usually don't mix well imho.
Skate skate shoes, wear other shoes when you're not

Well, its an adidas shoe, so it's an "other shoe brand" making a "other shoe"... But yeah, this model is pretty boring. The Palace tag will make it fly of the shelves tho.

Good point, kinda like those recent gonz whatever-the-hell-they-ares
Palace tag will make it 3x what it's actually worth too. I liked the first model they did but I'm never gunna drop $270 (or whatever stupid amount they went for) on a pair of skate shoes

(I also don't understand the appeal of trying to look like a 'lad' but I'll save that one for another day)

Yeah i like gonz ZX too. And i usually hate the regular ZX flux model! The changes they done to it make them much good looking IMO.
Then i dont really fuck with those koston/janoski's air max's, there are some cool colorways but i would rather buy some classic air maxes.

Anyone else going to pick up the Asics x Concepts "Mix and Match" GL-V's?

I like the purple ones, will just get those.

I didnt like that release when i first saw the photos but they grown on me, those purple and the aqua's are the best for sure.

Really feeling this retro Agassi Tech Challenge 3. I've started to dig a lot late 80's/ early 90's tennis shoes, that period was golden.

been rocking these Adidas ZX 8000 Boosts lately. my only gripes are that the drop-in midsole only has boost in the back half of the shoe and they squeak like a muthafucka. super comfortable shoe regardless and good for day-to-day shit. the material on the toecap is real elasticy and soft but i actually really like it.

I've heard about that squeak on those too. That would drive me crazy... My blazers are making some squeak too and it annoys me.

Bought those today for 30 euros at the nike outlet. Not my fav colorway but for the price i cant really ask for more. Really comfy too.

Also tried some magista x street. Been curious about'em since they were released. The price was good but sadly they only had a half size bigger than mine. The fit is crazy on those, i would buy a pair just to skate in them if i could...

Latest pick ups:

Zoom elites are for running. Also really tempted by a pair of the asics samurai pack, they're a bit more out there than what I'd usually go for but theres something about them that I really like:

I'll be picking up these next:

Fragment design x nikelab tennis classic

Nikelab terra kiger 2

I really like those pegasus and the terra kiger 2's! In the Gel Lyte's Samurai i just dont like that rubber material, looks like it's wrapped in a tyre, the rest is on point.

This weeks pick up.

Adidas are killing it at the minute. I'd love a pair of these too but I don't think it's gonna happen.

Also got these two for my wife....

Cool to see the Asics love. Their motion control runner The Evolution was all i could wear when not skating due to hip/knee/back problems, but they don't make it anymore unfortunately. I always liked the old school models too but for the price and considering how fast I would trash them, I couldn't justify buying them.

Like a sneakerboot or really a boot?

Nike ACG line usually has some dope designs, i love the new triple black mowabb.

Also, the one that noileum has but all black is a great boot, i had it in my hand the other day and was surprised with how flexible it was. Great looking too.
