Soups are soups are soups!!!!!
What can anyone say about them that is bad!!!!!
They are a clean classic line - and contrary to what others may think - I personally think that they are the most comfortable sneakers on the planet!!!!
And the fact that they look great with whatever outfit you are wearing!!!!
I am sure some of the guys on hear can vouch for this as they have worn them for their weddings!!!!!!!
You ought to ask for specific wedding photo's and put some sort of portfolio in your study hon

My first pair of Adidas were country ripples, but as soon as I got them, I kept noticing the three stripes everywhere, predominantly on supes. The more I looked, the more I found, so I got some classic white w/ black stripes supes, just like half the guys in my music collection. The superstar is a design classic, often imitated, and much adored. I didn't actually start colecting them, I just started to buy more pairs.

The adidas Superstar is just a classic, iconic sneaker, in the same way the Chuck Taylor is. The design is basically the same as it was in 1969 and while they release a number of different colorways and collaborations and designs, they don't stink of the same commercialism that Nike does.
I grew up in Stan Smiths and Gazelles, so I'm late to the Superstar party, but in a way I'm glad. Superstars are obviously worn by kids, but they're certainly not a kid's sneaker. At 35 it's still easy to rock a Superstar and look like an adult - they're simple, but sophisticated. You don't look like a wannabe baller in Superstars, nor do they look, for the most part, overly flashy. It's not a surprise, perhaps, that the most expensive Superstars, the Footpatrols, the Neighborhoods, etc are actually really low key. That to the common person you're just wearing sneakers. But to those in the know, well, your game is tight.

The original leather basketball sneaker.
Every "clique" has worn at 'em at some time.
They're timeless, they started a revolution, the clothing/fashion industry wouldn't be the same without 'em.
And the can stand up to a sh*tload of beatings, whether skating, basketball, or everyday use.
Definitely money's worth.
