what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
so i know that these nike dunk SB's were designed by the diamond skateboard company and were know as the 'tiffany' dunk as the colours are the same as the tiffany jewelery store uses for boxes
[attachment=1090]
so i am in portugal a week ago and i come across a cab that looks pretty similar
[attachment=1091]
not so bad
i can handle that
but then today i get some supplements from a tescos in the UK
and i notice these bad boys sitting on the shelf
[attachment=1092]
so from now on the are to be known as the nike dunk SB 'tescony'
shocking
i used to get a lot of props for these kicks
now i think it was just people being nice as they felt sorry for me
£250 for shoes that make people think i have bad bones

^^^^^^^^
Shouldve know better dude!
RE: what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
i know this isn't the forum to say it but...
no pair of shoes i have ever owned get more attention than these
maybe it's just that they got a lot of press when they came out
i don't know
i guess they are not exactly subtle
but people still stop me and ask about them
pirate you started my new love affair with dunks
i had forgot about them until i saw your KA camos
since then i have been buying a lot
no question that these are in the top five 'faked shoe' list of all time

thanks bro
i guess if there were no section for me to talk about n**e comments i wouldn't
but thats the beauty of the SSDB democracy
plus i figure i you stray into this area of the site you know that n**e is going to get mention
but i feel i just about get away with it
i still own 2 pairs of consortiums and plenty of 35ths and other nice SS's
so i am not a total traitor
anyway like i said before
blame pirate
RE: what was i thinking... - sin`pl - 02-02-08

RE: what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
remember people
pirate said that not me
RE: what was i thinking... - Lorrie - 02-02-08
I have to admit to owning a few dunks myself. the MF DOOMS, Sunday Bloody Sundays and the Things.
Love the look of them, but don't wear them often because for the first few minutes they're comfy as, and then they start aggravating the arthritis in my left foot.
Snipe, don't worry too much about those Tiffany's. Maybe just keep them on ice until you're back in North America.
RE: what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
Zwer don't fret
i am in NYC for a week on the 25th feb
my mission is to get some dunk SB 'jedi's'

RE: what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
enough!!!!!
adidas posted profits of over a billion pounds last year
that hardly makes them a bedroom industry
nike are a huge nasty swirling corporation with no love for the little people
nor for the little countries
but i would imagine that adidas as corporation would love to be as big or bigger than nike
that is the goal
they are a business after all
nike are the evil empire because they are the king of the castle
but adidas have been busted so many times for using sweatshop labour as well
and nike take so much of the flack
and a lot of the smaller shoe companies look good just because there is this big easy target called NIKE to point fingers at
i doubt there is a company that posts a billion pound profit in manufacturing that doesn't or at some point hasn't abused the planet or the people of it
i have always wanted to say that on here
i got no love for companies
i got love for people
damn
this was meant to be a funny post
and here i am going all beavis on you
sorry
RE: what was i thinking... - sniperschool - 02-02-08
shit
i expect my warning level to take a real beating after posting that
i am almost tempted to take it down
but that aint right
i had to say it
but i agree SS are beautiful shoes
and that was the point of this place being created
