Customer Reviews: minimalist & postmodernJuly 5, 2010 D. Zoll thought that title might get you looking!
i like the white on white details in the texture underneath the stripe - wasn't sure from the picture if they might turn out to look like a 70s industrialized macrame creation - scored from some madmax-esque village fete - but they're lovely looking. Slightly more padded around the foot opening than i was expecting but it's comfortable and most of the time i'm in long trousers so it doesn't really matter.
I'd forgotten about adidas's very narrow shoe construction (i have the same problem with converse all stars so maybe i just have broad feet). I'll wear them in eventually.
the insole appears to be a bit more substantial than i remember from previous adidas shell toes and i wish they'd start placing the insole in instead of glueing it down.
i'm a ladies size 7 so had been expecting a men's size 6.5 would have fitted ok but it didn't.
so i think it's safe to say from previous experience of mine that adidas shoes come up small.
lovely looking trainer tho.
considering the 'superstar weave' connotations the gold trim has barely a whiff of the pimp about it!
