lazuli16 Posted June 16, 2021 Author Posted June 16, 2021 Not sure which I dislike more the LEGO version of the shoe or the shoe imitating the LEGO version of the shoe. https://www.brothers-brick.com/2021/06/15/adidas-originals-lego-superstar-sneaker-to-accompany-lego-10282-adidas-originals-superstar-news/ 1 2 Quote
Brystheguy Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 I would take the kids' version all day long. I'll still be in for a pair of the adult ones though... Quote

CosmicSpeed Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 That GWP sold me. I was kind of on the fence, Im not a huge shoe guy, but I did buy the Lego Adidas, so these would look good on display next to them. Shoe Beat Box Guy is pretty fly. 1 Quote

exracer327 Posted June 17, 2021 Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) If I tried to display this set I think my wife would prohibit me from buying LEGO ever again. EDIT: You know, there might be a reason no ideas project submitter ever thought to produce... a shoe. Just saying. Edited June 17, 2021 by exracer327 2 Quote

I am thinking the limit should be at least 2 since some people will want a pair. Is there early VIP access for this set, need to flip the GWP. Quote

My dad did not believe in tennis shoes. It took me years to convince him that I needed them for gym class and playing sports. Only sport my dad played was HS football - starting lineman. Jr High Varsity BB - top three rich kids found these Nike high-tops and suggested everyone get them. $130 in 1984 is A LOT of money for shoes that would last maybe 1 year, because we were all still growing. Went to Payless Shoe Source looking for shoes. Found a pair of Nikes that were half the price (and the avg price for a high-top shoe) but nearly identical to the $130 pair. The rest of the team bought the shoe my parents got me. The rich kids were made fun of for paying twice as much for a nearly identical shoe. lol Good times... 1 Quote
