Goodbye - Farewell...

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

It's finally come to the point in my life where I have to say goodbye.....

To my old Adidas Samba's!

They've served me well for the past two yearsof daily abuse. So I've been to my local Sports Direct and picked up another pair, exactly the same!

Not towards the end. In fact they were pretty soulless!

Looking at the prices Id get the laced ones, Velcro is just a rip off

2 years? Crikey, they don't make them like they used to. My Hi Tecs have lasted me well. I had them in 1997 and they have been in a cupboard since 2003 but still look ok

In all fairness Tina, aside from the two times I've worn my 'going out shoes' these Samba's have hardly left my feet.

In that case, they may have developed life of their own and are now off out into the world seeking adventure

what soccer sports sell second hand trainers, and why not buy a new pair of trainers.

Sorry could not resist it.

I first had a pair of adidas sambas back in 1992, they lasted years. The adidas sambas are like the porsche 911 of the trainer world, a timeless classic that will never go out of fashion.

sambas used to come in black leather, brown suede and blue suede, they stopped making them and then reintroduced them due to public demand. Only they are not the same. Neither are the Kaiser or mondial retro football boots.

Trainers i got now are the new retro Nike air max. They don't quite feel the same to wear as the ones did back in the early 90's though.

Daily use for 2 years? They must have been riddled with fungal spores and would have been put inside a nuclear decommissioning facility if in this vicinity. I suggest you air the next lot and rotate your footwear. The memories may not have been fond for others.
