Shoes

those air max are a reissue.

There was a tasteful brown and cream colourway of a DVS shoe that was a blatant Airmax clone as well. I don’t think it was particularly skateable. It was out in 2003ish, (the same time as the Milan ankle busters). I think Huf had two shoes, both a high and low top, out at the time so I don’t think it was a Huf pro shoe.

I remember they did a really nice red, white and black colour way on those. I wanted them so bad but couldn’t afford them and had to settle for some red, black and white Etnies Raps instead (most likely from Peak Performance). They were so shit that everyone took the piss out of them!

Something like these…

Peak Performance. There is a name I’ve not heard in a long time.

Suppliers of the worst shoes available at the time.

I used to have some of these Hua Hufquakes. Free sole made them so comfortable.

Well today I learned!

I definitely bought a pair of those £35 Globe Tas Papas!

I had the grey black affinity. Still today I think they were the worst shoes I’ve ever owned.

Don’t think these were official huf but definitely some inspiration there

Been waiting for these to get marked down. Time to grab a bargain pair of chillers.

I’d like to see them in black with a gum sole before adding to cart.

Ok wow - and I thought Stone Island was expensive! Never realised a Balenciaga tshirt was £600 - £800!

There’s a chavy Mom who I see dropping her kids off on the playground in the morning and the kids have the black 2.0 version of these as their school shoes :joy:

I think these are probably the most bootlegged shoes of all time because there’s fuck all to them, so those kids most likely have the Ali Express versions.

And Stone Island make quality gear, outerwear-wise anyway, rather than just doing something shit and basic and putting a logo on it.

Modern prices are sort of mad but Massimo Osti was a proper visionary and innovator I reckon. Stone Island forever IDST

Yeah they were innovative in the 80s and 90s, but high street tech caught up with that a long time ago, what was the future is now the Millets norm. These days you’re just paying for the badge.

Get the badge in I say
