I think I had a black/ gray version of these around 1999-2000.

wonder if there’s a thread in trainers of your youth

remember really nice low airwalks i had (presumably before they were shite) and some grey and red chunky no fear (?) things. all bought from the market on union street in ryde. imagine just going to a shop and buying “some shoes” :open_mouth:

Absolutely wild to me that Osiris D3s were so desirable, absolutely honkin’. I did love mine though

Is there any list of shoes Nike released in the late 1990s/early 2000s I wonder? I cannot find an image of an old pair I loved with any combo of search terms I’m using.

EDIT: Found them! Nike Air Accels. Had these in a grey/silver colourway, loved them then.

Had these with black instead of blue. Been thinking about them a lot lately for some reason. I remember them being bloody comfortable.

Anyone bought from soletrader? Never heard of them before

Soletrader used to have actual brick and mortar shops throughout the country, although haven’t heard the name for years, assumed they’d gone out of business.

Charged me £8 to ship to NI, fuckers. Still, cheaper than anywhere else for the DMs my wife wanted.

To put it into context, it’d cost my work £35 to send you a case of beer atm.

Aye, I know it’s not really their fault. I’m just bitter because we’re as legitimate a part of the UK as anywhere else and were treated as such until Brexit. But, hey, as I say, it would have cost me an extra £32 to buy them from the dm shop in town so I can’t really complain.
