Starting Skateboarding At 29

The top ones in my pic are Stella McCartney, there are others and a quick google of “adidas oversized” proves it. Here’s amazon, Next, Very & shopstyle all selling similar (I trust that’s enough examples to prove my point).

I really don’t see what you’re getting at mate (other than your annoyance at the capitalisation of the brand name, which 50% of adidas retailers do anyway).

But those are different!! It’s like Route One couldn’t get the genuine women’s oversized from the non-SB adidas so they’ve claimed some of the smaller men’s stuff as oversized.

I’m not questioning whether adidas women’s oversized exists or not, I’m saying the stuff on the Route One site is men’s stuff that they’ve tagged as women’s oversized.

Any of you ladies out there want to buy some Superstars? Lightly worn, UK11 (women’s oversized).

Like Amazon?

They’re clothes mate, there’s a million and more important things to concern yourself with.

Amazon seller descriptions aren’t anything to go by.

And there aren’t that many more things to concern myself with right now. Got to look good for the UPS guy.

I’m not gonna stress about it, I’m not buying an oversized adidas tee any time soon (and I’m certainly not buying those horrific socks).

All I’m gonna say is I started for the company as a store manager 15 years ago and they were very good to me (as they are to all their staff). They kept me on doing freelance work when the shop shut and since then, whenever I’ve had times without other work, they’ve always gone out of their way to provide me with earning opportunities and made sure I’m taken care of. Yeah, it’s not skater owned but the people running it are good people and they care about the staff - that’s more that can be said about a lot of employers and it’s why I’ll continue to defend them (although I kinda wish I’d not jumped in now!).

Hitler was good to his staff. Probably.

And he wouldn’t have made them sell hacky sacks and ‘Boob Inspector’ shirts.

The old, why you so bothered for? I’m not, I’m chill, it’s just just clothes man - when their clearly not, replying to very post with evidence of why you’re wrong, haha.

Except I’m not wrong and, if you read the room, I’m trying to just be polite and put an end to a ridiculous conversation.

Why is it ridiculous, because you say so? Are you wearing your cunty socks?

Its ridiculous because we’re three men in our forties on different sides of a conversation about clothing sizes and a pair of socks.

All because I’ve been employed by a company you don’t like.

You are wrong. First time I spotted it was with a Gonz jacket which I own and absolutely did not come in women’s sizes.

Even if that’s the case with that (and I don’t doubt you) why would you even care?

Sorry, would you otherwise be out fucking Playboy Bunnies and mainlining Grey Goose?

OP, please don’t shop in Route One.

It’s a thing I don’t like about Route One, which was fitting for the conversation.

I think. Seems like a while ago now.

No but I’d rather discuss something a little more highbrow. Plus, and maybe this is me showing my naivety here, I’m continuously trying to amiable/open and honest and its consistently met with petty derision. Bit tedious to be honest.

So I can’t comment of your cunty socks? That you sell to kids?

I like you, I wasn’t being horrible.

I dont sell anything to anyone and, if you read back, you’ll see I clearly state I find those socks inappropriate.
