Christmas Gift's, What did you get ? ?

[uncle bob]

Vip tickets to meet and greet, with the cast of Still game up in a theatre in Glasgow next October.
Funny stories from the cast about the show etc.

Those Travis Scott Nike Dunks are awful. Anyone over the age of 25 wearing Dunks need to have a word with themselves never mind paying hundred of pounds for special edition ones after a rapper.

To answer your earlier question - yes, I used to fish the south Wales coast in my early teens.
It was largely a frustrating experience of getting snagged a lot, losing tackle because no one showed me how to tie a knot properly.
I had no idea about tides, correct setups, bait etc. It was no wonder I seldom caught anything.
Nevertheless, for an urban kid like me it was just great to be next to a beach.

It's far more fun than shopping

each to their own I guess, I love the TS CJ's, I have a wedding to go to in the summer, I have a Cream suit and them CJ's will go great with them, as I said, wouldn't have ever justified the cost of them

not sure shoes have a max age, I also own high 1's, in both UNC and Lucky Greens

You are right about the different definitions. However, when I was a kid growing up in the 60s, there was only daps available (black or white and elasticated or lace-up). Trainers came on the scene in the mid to late 70s.

yea, always been Trainers to me, thought the Nikes are sneakers now, the American influence, but my Adidas, Vans and Converse are trainers, doesnt make sense really

How old are you Matt?

53, ive always been into both Adidas and Vans, only recently got into Nike's, it was more of a laugh with my oldest daughter who got into them in Uni, but I suffer a little from " hyper fixation " so down the Nike rabbit hole I went, could have worse issues I guess

You are going to a wedding in a cream suit and a pair of daps ?

Jesus Christ

He's the bride.

[splott parker]

He's the bride.

He needs to steer clear of the Strongbow, an FT in a cream suit could be very embarrassing. The saying ‘diarrhoea with daps on’ would never be so apt

[bobh]

Black trainers/plimsolls = daps
White trainers/plimsolls = posh daps.

I got married wearing a pair of daps. I'd rather garrotte my own cock than wear a cream suit mind.

[Jordi Culé]

You killed it for me when you mentioned Nike. They are the devils spawn.

Nike Internationalist the only pair of their daps which are not.

That said, one of the most amusing sights in football is seeing a gaggle of middle aged whoppers all sporting Adidas Originals posing for a pic on social media.

I'm such a miserable cuunt.

Not only daps in the 60s. What about baseball boots, which have made a comeback in recent years?

I had a pair. We used to call them 'bumpers'.

At least he's not short of confidence

[Der Kaiser]

Also, absolutely nobody under the age of 40 call trainers 'daps'.


'Daps' sound like a tatty piece of shite that wouldn't last more than 4 wears.

Suck on that

I do seem to fall into the endangered species category on this board of not only under 40s, but under 30s

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Whilst grown men spending hundreds of pounds on trainers they never wear because they don't want to get them dirty is fair enough they definitely need psychiatric input
