apparently they were the first actual 'tennis' shoe ever made.
and they still look that way too..

they use nice underground people like me to get them cred and make them events casue they deem themselves 'too cool' to advertise on TV etc like nike.

Those Nikes are the hotness

Remind me of some spikes I had back in my running days 'cept they were Asics. If I still had em I'd wear em out minus the spikeys

I went to massive efforts to get a pair of kicks from the US, they didn't ship to Oz so I got them sent to a friend in California so they could forwad them on.

Everything was going to plan and I got 2 confirmation emails saying they had received the order. One day later I get an email saying they sold out and refunded my money.
