Yeah! I used to live near a guy who would wear his trainers till they looked slightly used and then give them away.
Luckily he was the same size as me so I got a lovely pair of white Adidas shell toes. Some other ones that I've worn out now as well.

I'm not a fan of the 'straight out the box' look.
They need to have a bit of wear on them.

You had a good day Blousie? Your dating agency never really went anywhere, did it?

It's cos she never compiled a proper list

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:29, Reply)

Maybe she is still running a full analysis of the information?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:31, Reply)

I like them looking used too.
He was a bit gansta. I think that's the look they go for.

Dating agency was just internet banter. There are a couple of people I think would do well together but my lips are sealed.

Well at least give Amberl an answer, she seemed most keen.

I did.
I said she should go for that badger bloke.

while it may not be much of an accolade
he's probably the least weird person on here. as far as I can tell anyway

sadly he's not in my age range

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:38, Reply)

He looks attractive on his profile pic and he has brains and humour.
I don't see how it could possibly go wrong : )

Hahaha!
I don't count my experiences as anything to go by.

Now will you take our advice?

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:38, Reply)

What advice?

( girlinthehole, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:39, Reply)

I had a flatmate
who wore his trainers until the soles fell off, so repaired them by tying extra long laces around them to keep them on.

The tight bastard.

Flatmate, or cardboard box city mate?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 22 Nov 2010, 19:35, Reply)

Flatmate.
After about a year and a particularly bad winter he gave in and bought some new ones.
