RE: Superstars changed my ways - Galaxy36 - 03-07-08

Hi Jen, welcome!! Loved your introduction. King is most definately right, those were Journey exclusives. They must have sold out on them since I haven't seen those in their stores for some time now. I regret not picking them up when I saw them.

Want to thank everyone for the warm welcome and such fast replies! It almost makes me want to hunt down more exclusive and rare trainers, oh dear I can see this becomming an addiction

That's some pretty good news so far. Do you think the ones I saw on eBay going for £25 could have in fact been real then seeing as they may be going for $40 in the US?
I'll definately keep my eyes open for trusted sellers but there's nothing like buying a new pair of trainers from a store, getting them in their new box and smelling that smell, so if I can get brand new ones that one I'd be so chuffed.

As for my size, I was going to ask some advice on how adidas trainers fit. I've never owned a pair myself although at the moment I'm using a pair of my sister's old running style adidas at the gym. They say Uk size 5.5, US size 6 and strangely Japanese size 245! They come up slightly short though.
I vary between 5.5 all the way to 7 with shoes but 6 is my most comfortable. As with most trainers though, the smaller you can get them the better I think they look so do superstars come up short, long, narrow, wide.. or are they about average?

Thanks again for your help, it's very encouraging. I enjoy buying trainers more than anything else!


Edit:

Ahh, I checked out Journeys Shoes and that is in fact the only site I could find linked with those trainers. I arrived there after finding a picture of the trainers on image search.
They don't appear to be on the site at the moment, although there does seem to be a black and white version for the guys.
Are they something that come on for a season and then are swapped for something else? Is perhaps eBay my best shot.

Ebay's your best bet for these.. don't reckon they've been faked. £25 seems about right for 'em.

Welcome along Jen and good luck in your search for those illusive Superstars your after! Im sure the good people on here will locate you a pair, ebay is scoured worldwide on a daily basis here!

Journeys just stocks them for a short while then just doesn't sell them anymore. Your best bet would be ebay or an Adidas outlet since I have seen some Journeys exclusives there from time to time.

Welcome Jen, great intro, and congratulations on seeing the light - I haven't though Reeboks were cool since Blacktop Pumps were cool

Hey, small update. I emailed the seller on eBay to ask if they'd be listing any more of the trainers and they sent back some sort of generic template. Currently they have three of the pink versions listed so I'll keep my fingers crossed

A quick question. What is the email to use when requesting help from the adidas Hunters?

Is it the referral service address: mailto:[email protected]?

Many thanks. Hoping for a breakthrough after 3 constant hours of searching myself -____-
