My adidas

I bought these at least 15 years ago, but like a chump, got one size too small (8) so they really don’t have 15 years of wear and tear, not least as they’ve not come out from under the stairs for at least half that time. That said, I probably shouldn’t have put them in the washing machine last week as patches of surface leather have come off, exposing the padding beneath, but still, they’re clean.


They’re white cross-trainers with blue stripes and a little bit of green trim. When it comes to lacing them there are two options, but one is way more fly than the other. That’s how they’re laced right now. And coming from the 20th century, they’re vintage too. That’s right – vintage adidas! Please form an orderly line.
