yep. i had always stayed away because I didn't think they fit me very well. always more of a stan smiths and gazelles guy because they fit so comfy right out of the box.
but i just had to have the UPs when I saw them and that put me on the path of righteousness. My second pair was snakeskin vins and after those it was nothing but love.

I must admit, i would prefer the UP's to not have the cutlery on the stripes, but as thats kind of the whole point i guess we are stuck with them

I actually like the look of the shoe but it was the cutlery on the stripes that killed them for me. Could have picked a pair up for about £40 a while back but couldn't justify paying out for a pair i wasn't 100% feeling.
Although, in defence of the UP's i've never seen a pair in the flesh.
Yes! Im not alone! The minority is growing
And how can you say you need to be a man to wear them?
Oh look at me Ive got a table cloth pattern on my shoes, with forks and everything

I think I preferred it when the minority was silent.

I didnt realise there was such extremes of opinion over the UP's!
I'd still kill for a pair o' them though!

Got these in today...
'05 Hemps
I swapped out the original laces for some thick cream laces...
It's been a good week with the Buenos Aires, Missy's and now these. Just need my Purples, Season's Greetings and white navy's and it will be complete

They kinda look like demin. But those laces match perfectly. Good stuff.

The Ian Browns arrived this week. A little dirty so I spent an hour giving them some TLC. £36 off the bay
The Upper Playgrounds I got off the bay, beautiful DS condition ONLY £60
I had promised that I would never get the vintage stars, but over the months, the more I looked at them the more I liked them. They really do look good on. Had to flip the gay laces though
i love the bbq's cool shoe's. I've not had the stones to dirty mine yet. There all nice pick ups good work
