SSDB custom model - kungfuyoazz - 28-08-09

Suppose we managed to get a large group of us (50?) to come up with the cash to buy a limited run of custom SS's. Would Addidas go for it? How many would need to be produced for them to go for it? How hard would it be for all of us to agree on one design? Good idea/bad idea? Discuss.

bad idea. and you will never make a shoe that fits everybody taste. and adidas will never go for it. unless we are group of (50?) noble prize winners.

I thought about it after seeing the Adidas Revelation Records Campus Vulc. They only made 150 of them supposedly. It's not like they are on the level of sales/celeb as Bad Boy for instance. I'm willing to bet we could find some common ground on the design. Put it to a vote and all that. We could get 50 people to go for it no? Or ebay 'em later.
I say cream colored vin's clear soles with logo underneath....call them the "pure" model, lol, I don't care as long as they look cool.

We couldn't even decide on a fucking t-shirt !

RE: SSDB custom model - kungfuyoazz - 29-08-09

Yeah true...lol...but to own yet another pair of custom limited ss's, who could pass up on that around here? We could vote the top 5 and do a model a year for 5 years.... Just thinking out loud here.

No, seriously, we tried to organise having some t-shirts printed and we couldn't even decide on a final design for those.
Never mind all the grief involved in someone paying for the printing as well.

He's almost as cool and collected as this little madam.

Good that the idea is vins though.
Best superstar... but there you go, enuff on here that rate the ss2, 1, 80s etc higher... would be nice but a collab is probably a non starter although would like to be proved wrong.
The real question is why can't you get a miadidas vin?
Divs... I'd never be out of Liverpool if I could make my own vins, and their little making station is gathering dust.

Is it ?
Not sure how busy the London one is but the book of orders was nuff thick.

RE: SSDB custom model - GeeBee - 29-08-09

Not getting that much use according to them last week, but with the supes at £95 a pop now I'm not that surprised.

---

RE: SSDB custom model - jam - 29-08-09

Now thats a big ka boom boom.
I like this idea but its most definitely never gonna happen. And Im all up for designing some supes, and it would be fuckin ill if my design was chosen an made but then again, we probably wouldnt even get to stage 1.

---

RE: SSDB custom model - mr.pure - 29-08-09

I think we already stopped trying to reach the s in stage !
Adidas really need to drop the price back down to £75 for it become a success.
I'd have done four or five pairs by now but they can do one at virtually a ton a pop.

lol you guys couldnt even come to a conclusion on a tee? bunch of bloody bitches

I was actually wondering the other night when I saw the lace jewels why a tee hadnt been made... now I know, and will never speak of this ever again hahaha

oh and a LM shoe for SSDB members would be awesome, but even if an agreement on design could be made, I couldnt see Adidas saying yes
