In September I was looking for some replacement for these supes. They REALLY needed to be replaced.
Knowing nothing about Superstars I bougth 2 fake pairs on the internet. Because I had my doubts about the genuinity I began searching the web to find anything about these two shops I bought from. I ended up here. I did get my money back for both fake pairs but ending up here could not be returned. I couldn't stop and searched the web for some cool Superstars (I still needed to replace those beaters
).
4 months later I ended up with these
Vin-party
I keep the shoes in my office upstairs. I mounted some shelves on the wall to display the shoes. Yesterday I added some custom stripes to two of the shelves.
Close-up of the stripes:
I don't think my collection will stop here. My girlfriend keeps pushing to buy more supes
Cheers,
Rob

nice mate... sounded like the start of a film or summin... "one mans quest to replace his beaters took him on a journey he never expected to take"

Thanks or all your positive replies guys.
@Pukka: hahaha, it does sound like a film doesn't it. I wanted to tell a bit about my quest instead of just posting pics.
And IKEA LACK shelves rule! They look nice and only cost €9,- You could fit 5 pairs on the shelve, but the toes will stick out a bit.
I have plenty of room to add more shelves but I think I'll stick to 5 right now.

get more shelves mate...got a shoe rack in lidl.. well cheap and fits in the cupboard perfect.... i thought that it would be fine just getting the one when i first started... now wish i had bought a few.. should be safe with ikea, but you dont wanna be wanting more of the same shelf and they dont sell em anymore
