I make that 6 in total then.
Super Modifieds should have been renamed Super Shit and sure as fuck shouldn't have the name Superstar after them.
They go against everything the Superstar means to most of us in here.
Take them outside, burn them, then post the pictures.
Only then will we talk to you !
LOL... You don't understand what these are for me. They are a way of holding on to my younger years. I remember way back then every time I look at them. I bought them for me and they work fine for what I bought them for.
These aren't bad shoes. If I could find the exact shoes that I use to have, I probably would have bought them instead, but I can't. Maybe with some help from the members here, I could.
Why don't you like the supermods anyway?
Gash? Is this slang for crap? I'd agree that they are crap, but they are the closest I could find to my cherished old ones that were laid to rest last year...

Welcome Adolf,
You're in San Diego? I'm up in Long Beach. I come down there all the time... Actually come to down to Vista (not quite SD) at least twice a month for business. I have a customer there.
By the way, 23 posts so far in less than a day... you might want to slow your roll just a bit. You're bound to get your hand smacked if the masses feel your racing to 150 posts.
This is definitely a tight group of people (mostly in the UK & EU but there are several of us here in the states) that love and embrace new members who are truely SUPERSTAR (not just adidas, but Superstar) collectors, no matter the size or state of your collection... and not just people looking to one day sell stuff. They'll boot you out quick if that is where you're going.
By the way, You'll quickly pick up on the British slang and get used to the use of the letter "U" in words where they don't belong... (It's COLOR, not Colour!). Incidentally, my favorite Brit slang word is Wanker, or even Pirate's patented "WANK!"
LOL Wanker... That's a great word.
No, I don't want to sell anything on here, I have an ebay account for that. I'm not racing for 150. Why, what does that get you? I just never knew that there were so many other people that loved Superstars like I do. Also, there are some people on here that have information I've been seeking about my precious #35. I am just so curious. I want to know everything about them...
Vista you say? I am in Oceanside in the Harbor. I have a spot on the beach here. You have to go 2 minutes past me and get on the 78 to get to Vista.
Maybe you'd stop for a beer. The owner of the pub I go to was very interested in my Anniversary #35 Superstars. I said I'd bring them for him to see at some point. I'm always in there. They've got great food. If you're interested one of these days, just let me know...
Thanks for the warm welcome,
Jay

The 20 I still have in the boxes have not been worn yet. A couple pairs are duplicates, so that when the ones I wear are ruined, I have another set to replace them. Some of the others are collectors shoes or shoes that I am waiting for the matching apparel to arrive before I sport them.
Again, I didn't mean any offense.
I will post some pics of my collection on here when I get some time.
Thanks for reading!
they holy grail hu?

Brilliant thread this, the idea of us all googling adolph dasler and then being all shocked when we realised who it was is a particularly nice touch, as is the americans telling us how to speak english
(just joking US heads
)
Wishing it was like the old days again

Does the phrase "teaching ya granny to suck eggs" mean anything to you?
Anyway, welcome to SSDB Adolf. I think.
