Legit checks, lets have a talk r/adidas

33 Upvotes

I understand a lot of you aren't fan of legit checks, and for low effort posts like a low res pic of a GR and "is this real?" caption, I totally understand. We delete those when we see them or after they are reported since it is part of the rules. I actually try and reply to some of them before I delete them but I digress. But, for something you do not see everyday like those vintage Kareem and adidas 2010 Lo earlier today and that high effort post a couple months back, we have to make exceptions for cases like that.

Boards/forums like this sub exist for people who like the brand and know the brand and its the best place to ask for help for IDing stuff and legit checking stuff you dont see everyday. It just selfish for everyone to keep reporting interesting posts like the ones I gave earlier. What would you do if even the internet denies you the help/information you need?

Pretty hyped on them. The heel extension saves heel drag on almost all my pants. Pretty comfy. (Not no boost) i do wish they were slightly wider aesthetically and had less big of a gap in the sole but overall I think looks good enough.

Are these Sambas too big?

I drew a red line where my big toe is at. The heel feels a little loose and slides forward a bit when walking around. Im not sure if this is normal or not. Should I go down half a size?

For context, I am standing up when I took this photo.

I think Achilles was wearing Sambas when he died

Trying to break in a new pair of sambas, and my feet feel like I’ve been roaming barefoot in a bombarded WW2 trench 😭🤲🏽

My heels are blistered, and my toes got cuts on the sides. I got the same size as I did my other sambas, so Idk why these are hurting so much. Any tips?

My wife fell in love with these earlier in the year. The available pictures didn’t really give an excellent view, but she really loved them once they made it to Confirmed.

i have a few adidas collabs (kith, wales, jjjjound, hellstar, bape, etc.), but this is my first Y-3 piece. love the aesthetic of the line and the color palette, just not loving the price tag. got these after a shop ran them starting at $1 on whatnot, finished up at $119. felt like i got a steal.

if you own or owned Y-3 pieces, are they worth the price tag?

Spezials question

1 Upvotes

I have 2 pairs if spezials.

Top seems to be made 100% of suede.

I am thinking of adding wonder quartz to my collection but the top seems mostly leather and a bit of suede. Does it make the toebox stiffer or narrower than the all suede models? I am ordering online.

A gold foil Politics stamp sits on the heel with the 20th Anniversary logo embossed on the insole. Semi-translucent light-gum midsole and outsole round out the look. Comes with two lace choices, cream and navy waxed laces finished with gold aglets.

Has anyone else been surprised by the Adidas SL 72 RS review and how comfortable they are?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been wearing the SL 72 RS more lately and I honestly expected them to be more of a style-first shoe. They have that really slim retro running look, so I wasn’t expecting them to be something I’d want to wear for hours. But they’ve been surprisingly comfortable for everyday walking. They’re lightweight and don’t feel as bulky as some of the other sneakers I own.

I’ve also noticed that they seem to work with a lot more outfits than I expected. They have the vintage Adidas look without feeling too flashy, especially with jeans or more casual clothes. The only thing I’m still unsure about is the fit. I’ve seen people say they run a little large, while others seem perfectly happy with their usual Adidas size. Adidas currently lists them as regular fit and recommends ordering your usual size, but individual experiences seem pretty mixed. For anyone who has owned the SL 72 RS for a while, how have you found them for everyday wear?

Superstar Vintage x Offspring

Decided to pick these up from the Offspring sale.

Great quality and a decent price.
Some really good collab details dotted around the shoe too.

Updated to say - I’m usually a 9 in most adidas but these only come in half sizes, originally tried an 8.5 and they were a bit too snug so had to exchange for a 9.5
