No idea on sizes but I think there were 250 pairs.
This was a Top Secret shoe thread, but now it's a tale of greed and desperation.

Hey flyingcod,
300 pair of the #35 were made. From what I understand, 256 were given to celebrities and 44 were raffled off in major cities throughout the world... Supposedly they were custom to each person that one a pair or received them as a gift, but I cannot find much literature about this...
I should hope they don't disintegrate, and no, these will never be sold... never... ever...

Thought there were 5 parties round the world on the date they gave them out and there were 5 pairs given out per party.

Could be. Most of the information you can dredge up on the net if pure speculation and not based on fact. I would like to talk to someone who attended one of these parties. Or someone who has first hand knowledge of the planning that went into this release.

My goodness! Another pair of #35's... I had hoped to run into a few here. That lock thing is a nice touch huh? Do you mind if I ask a few questions, since you likely know more than I do about these?
I'm way to into this. They need to make an Adidas Anonymous for recovering adidaholics... LOL

Did they come with a tag on the handle? Could you tell me what the tag on the inside of the tongue says or take a picture and post it? I picture would be the best if you could please? Is the card with the stars on it what people refer to as the golden ticket or was there another card? Is the bottom of your shoe made of leather or wood, cause someone told me it was made of wood, and I explained that mine had a leather bottom and that they were wrong. Was their a block between the shoes in the box originally cause I saw this in one of the pictures on the net...
Sorry for so many questions, but I am so curious...

The soles should be leather.
Sounds like the inside from the golden ticket.
If you've got a pair, how come you don't have a tag on the inside as well ?

Yes, absolutely. My mouth has been watering for these since they came out. Last couple pair I came across sold for over $4000 US. They weren't in my size either. These came along and were in my size for $2000. I had the cash, so I bought them. I'm not sorry I did either. They are the jewel of my collection. I just want to know how close to mint they are. It's hard to know unless you find another person with a mint pair and that did not happen till now. Until I joined this forum, I though I was the only one with a Superstar Addiction. Thank god it's not only me.
My girlfriend thinks I'm absolutely nuts and won't hear a word of it, so I'm on my own for this. Just last night I was building a pair of Superstars on Miadidas. She said I was out of control and shut off the projector so I would go to bed.
I will convert her as soon as her birthday rolls around though. I was thinking the pink and white adidas for her. Any suggestions? I might start a new thread for this... She doesn't understand, but I've been slowly converting her to the dark side. She now has two pairs of adidas running shoes that she loves and 3 adidas workout suits that she always wears. She doesn't realize what I'm up to yet. Once I get those Superstars on her feet, the process will be complete...
MOOO HOOOOOO HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
Evil laugh... sorry

How many pairs per size!!! <<Good question flyingcod I'd love to know myself m8 but that goes for all the limited edition/consortium releasese they never say how many per size.
I know 1 thing i'd love to know how many pairs of frickin unions they made in a uk7 cause i'm beginning to think its all some nasty trick and they never made any (sounding like a broken record??i know sorry but every month the annoyance grows)
As shelltoes says they should have the tags attached to the handles quoting size and which number they are but the rest you seem to have.
As for wearing them the only time i would wear them is if i got married but owning them is not about wearing them for me personally i have plenty of superstars to wear.That might be seen as a complete waste of money or showing them enough respect not to wear them.
I just always wanted to own them if i got a chance so i do.
Pure - I get were ya coming from about them been worth £600 and you'd wear em but can i ask if you've seen a pair close up?felt the quality of the materials used??I don't think you can truely understand how luxurious they are less you get the chance to have them close up.Sure they look just like a pair of white lux but call me cyril the squirrel and scratch me nuts there outta this world imo

Thanks, I've been searching. I'm sure there is more I haven't uncovered yet. Funny you should say that about the 1 Lux, cause I just ordered those yesterday. Hope they are as nice as they look...
I'll post pics when they arrive...
