    I did show it to my nan. She says you've got a filthy mouth. Other than that she things you're "well dench" whatever that means.

    Good policy. tbh a succesfull youtube channel can lead to some good paying jobs and I think you come across very well. Besides you've got a good face for radio.

    Take that big white tick away from them and seriously would you wear them? They look like something papa smurf would wear when trying to get fit.

    Sorry if you find the culture of trainer collection and sneaker heads so foolish

    The two most expensive pairs of trainers I ever owned:

    Air Jordan IVs when I was 18 so the original issue, unlike the replicas below.
    [​IMG]

    At Uni I had thes but the orange bits were dark green. Probably some of the most comfortable trainers I've ever bought. Hexalite>Air imho
    [​IMG]


    Fairly recently I had a pair of these. Air Max 95s but the sky blue bits were grey. These are now nackered and I used them for gardening.

    I started running at one point and had a pair of this Air Shox
    [​IMG]
    Uterly hopeless. I got shin splints after a few weeks and they wore out so quickly. Less cushioned than conventional Air.

    That's the sum total of the interesting trainers I've ever bought. I've currently got a pair of Sketchers which are very light and comfortable but are not wearing well so will continue to follow this thread with interest for recommendations.

    Those Jordans are quality. Been looking at getting some myself, but they're always difficult to find for a good price. Mainly looking at Jordan Retro IV's and V's.

    They lasted for ever. I don't think I've ever spent £90 on trainers since but they were well worth the investment.

    TheDon, I love some of your others, the yellow and red adidas ones work but I think those blue and just a bit 'in your face'. What would you wear then with? (god I sound like my wife!)
