Almost a year ago, I joined this forum pretty much knowing heehaw about Superstars. I had a couple pairs of NBA's and that was it. I used to go outside, see friends, play football, and all the other things a 25 year old guy should be doing.

Then it started, people showing these Superstars I'd never seen before, 35th's, Vins, Lux's, in colours and styles I could never have even imagined. And I wanted them. I stopped going outside, I stopped talking to my friends, I kicked my football into the neighbours garden knowing full well it would be burst. Now I just trawl the internet, trying to get my next fix. Sitting in the dark, hoping, praying, a pair I wanted would come up in my size.

And this, you pushers, is the result.

Probably shouldn't of taken them anti-biotics and whisky at the same time this morning

I was just gonna write "bow down" in big letters, but then I'd have just looked like (a bit more of) a prick!

Enjoy, any comments gratefully received. Always searching for more, I know there isn't anything that rare, and some of the lacing needs sorted, but I said I'd do this ages ago so thought I'd better pull the finger out.

Cheers

[ChOmChOm]

quality collection u have there mate. loving the set of the NBA's. is that all of them?

[Sneakerphile]

Not a bad collection there mate. Quite a few choice ones.
A little short in the vins department, but i'm sure you are working on that
Keep up the good work.

[spitey]

Is this what I have to look forward to, by the sounds of it am already started down the same path (sat in the dark trawling).
I hope to build up a collection like this one day, maybe not in a year... the wife and kids might object to only eating every other day.
Nice 1 J

Nothing RARE indeed!!!35ths and the force pack says different.
Excellent stuff m8.
Cheers for posting em up and goodluck with the addiction its untreatable so don't fight it and more goodluck for all your future pickups

[cracky]

nice collection mate, some sweet choices

[Lorrie]

well done, fella. Thanks for showing.

Only one pair of vins, though?

[mr.pure]

Yeah, nice collection JK.
Gotta say though, I'm not sorry.
Not in the slightest !

Thanks everyone for the kind words, always enjoyed looking at other folks collections so thought it was about time I contributed mine!

Minky - try ebay.com for the vegas lux's, I got all mine from there for about 40 quid a pop including postage, currently waiting on a pair of Kevin Garrets (think that's his name anyway!) Not sure if they'll have your size but worth a go.

Chom - there are 30 pairs of NBA's, plus East and West ones I think. Be kind of nice to finish the set but some of them are pretty minging, I've mainly went for the pairs I really like, doubt I'd get any others apart from maybe the Raptors.

KOTW - If I had dependents/responsiblities it would of taken me a lot longer! Then again my credit card bill is a bit ridiculous at the moment.

Sneakerphile & Zwer - Yeah my lack of vins is a bit of a bugbear with me, came close to getting them CMYK vins but they were gone by the time I got paid, and had bad luck when bidding for some pairs on ebay. I do hope to rectify this soon though, although I'll never get to your level of quality Lorrie!

Pokey - Yeah guess you're right lol, would love to get my hands on some of the consortium 35ths, which would also help boost my vins collection, but the pairs that have come up have been either too expensive for me or come at a bad time, like when I need to pay rent and stuff. Bastards!

Thanks again guys, think I'll go watch Ghostbusters.

[Galaxy36]

Pretty impressive collection you've got there jk. Antibiotics + whiskey= FUN!!

[manus]

Cheers for the pics and the funny intro. That's a great collection, and ghostbusters is a great movie, but surely you are wasting valuable search time by watching it!

[Minty]

Damn. I thought I was doing well after almost a year...I have some catching up to do!

Your collection is sweet! Well done!
