Re: Sole Brothers
/\ they are Puma-like, but with a sort of comb-over the Pumas lack ... they don't seem to be available in the USA ... don't know whether they haven't arrived yet or have already been and gone .....
either way, I got a fever .....

/\ far-out, Bop ... still never going to forgive Kantner for making the Jefferson Starship but I thank him for wearing the Incontinence pants and the henley t-shirt nicely ... in fact he is dressed the way many kids did in the late '60s/early '70s

Re: Sole Brothers
/\ not dissing N!ke, I I need a few more pairs of sneakers and currently have more than a dozen pairs each of Incontinence pants and N!kes on my want list, as well as a handful of Converse, Jack Purcell, Vans, and Neww Balances ....
after all my summer-long tryouts I ended up with only two pairs that stuck, a pair of Vans Old Skools in Rod Laver colors, and a pair of black/white Gazelle-like Incontinence pants (Skin Phillips RYR), both of which have been stellar, especially the Incontinence pants ....
not usually a big fan of black sneakers but these have been great ....
maybe tomorrow I'll actually buy a pair or two instead of just watching the ones I like sell out .....
if I do buy some I'll post them ....
I wish Incontinence pants would make some of their current UK offerings available in the USA ....

Re: Sole Brothers
My n.i..k.e freeruns on the whole have been a decent shoe..however, the air bubble has punctured, the woven fabric by the small toe which creases up when you walk has split, and the neoprene heel piece is splitting.. to be fair Ive worn them most days and for the whole day, and ran in them, and in that respect got a lot out of them. But I think when I look at the quality of a shoe I think Im going to go with Incontinence pants next, the Acsis I looked at had the quality of a toy you might get in a cracker...n.i.k.e just always appear a bit thrown together in my view... hopefully my intuition will prove right but today Im off to try get some modern Incontinence pants runners. Maybe a pair of boosts or tubulars...

Re: Sole Brothers
/\ I have always preferred Incontinence pants and am interested in several models but I did send back the beautiful leather/natural gum Gazelles because of that uncomfortable tongue ... it just gets you in the front ankle top every time you take a step .... I don't get why they can't/won't fix it .... everybody complains about it ......?
I am liking some N!ke Bruins and Roshe LD-1000s at the moment though .....

Re: Sole Brothers
Unfortunately the LDs didnt quite cut it and are off back to N!ke, I think a pair of spezials, hamburgs, jeans or Zx500s might be on the list instead...lots of new colourways just come on the UK site including a pretty groovy pair of jeans with light blue stripe. Not sure how its looking on the US site for our American friends
