Hi my names Giorgio and im 18. I live in the Channel Islands, more specifically Guernsey. Theres only 60,000 people here and it gets quite boring. Used to live in Manchester and hoping to return there for Uni this September. I haven't got any superstars YET but hoping to make my first purchase ASAP. My cousin used to have the Goofy Adicolors, I was looking for a pair which led me to superstars and this site. Reading through looks like theres loads of good info and sound people.
Anyone recommend a good first pair, I like the look of the NY Adicolor W6's or even the Goofy W4's (not superstars I know). With the latter being $130 I was wondering do you guys wear your superstars? Spending that much money I wouldn't want to ruin them is it possible to keep them looking good for a long time?
So.....Hey to all!

a great first pair is always a simple white with black stripe.
a nice pair of phat laces in them. and rock those for a while.
shortly followed by another choice pair. and then a third ,fourth and maybe even a fifth. rotate them and keep them clean. yes we all mostly wear all our supes. coz we are just like that.
oh yeah. sup giorgio

Welcome Giorgio, good advice from Spite there, keep to a nice classic look to start with and find the right size for you. Then you can wade right in and blow some serious wonga with Mr SS. Careful with those Adicolor fella, finding a legit pair is half the battle - read the forums for some good advice. Peace...Out.

I saw them on pickyoushoes, I presume they're legit?
RE: Hey! -

they are. PYS is completly legit, but if you add shipping + eventual customs charges, maybe you should consider buying them from mrshoeshotta if he have them in stock..

PYS is cool mate, and welcome.
Only issue with US sites is customs charges! Try the shotta 1st or if you get stuck try me, the adidas hunter, sites are below in my signature. Good to have you around fella!
Peace

Welcome buddy. Check out the "how to keep your kicks fresh" forum to see more on how to keep them nice. Soups last for a long time, so wearing them out is pretty hard to do if you have a few pairs and aren't "mean" to them

Welcome aboard! Spite is right about the white with black stripes as a first pair. Simple and classic - the pure form of superstar.
