I'm having the devil's own job getting hold of a pair of these sneakers.

There are loads of fakes out there, esp. on eBay, of course, & the fakes really upset those who care about this sort of thing. Thank God we don't have thart problem with b-boxes (imagine having to deal with the possibility of fake grails...).

Anyway, if anyone knows of a genuine pair of these (UK size 9/9.5), do please let me know.
They are (IMHO) very cool sneakers:

Good luck with that. I should have bought mine when they first came out. I had a chance to get a pair for $29.95 - now they're up to around $100 even if I can find my size.

too true. less than $30? you must be sick as a dog about that.
I've got some fakes on the cheap & they're not at all bad, but I want the real thing...

You got that right! I guess I should be happy with my mint Stan Smiths with matching, fat green laces.

I remeber seeing some kid wearign the JMJ tribute kicks they only sold in NYC. I almost lost my **** when i realized he was wearing super limited edition kicks that were depreciating value by the minute walking in NYC's filthy subway system.

Oh dear.
Those guys over at the Adidas Superstars forum have just asked me about my boomboxes...
There are quite a few pictures of Hitachi 3Ds on their forum now (& an M90)

Found it

My google-fu is strong today

Tell them about walkmans also!!!

I have a pair of those (top, 2nd from far left)...

They cost me $275 from Harputs.com, I believe.

Holy S**t!!! Nice Adidas collection Monolithic!

I had a pair of them a while ago, but sold em due to funds. I also had the Ian Brown, Andy Warhol, plus a few others.

I really miss the Ian Brown ones and the RUN DMC... damn money

My shoes are too big for you 'cause I wear a UK size 11... I wouldn't sell 'em anyway.
