Japan Lux

I saw these and immediately knew lol. It took me a minute to find them in a size and price that felt reasonable, but I’m damn glad I did.

They smell like a new car lol, the softest leather (I think), the deep rock colors, and the style itself is all top shelf. Also they are much more comfortable than other Japans I’ve worn, but that may all be in my head.

Fantastic shoe, 8/10

Man United Sambas

Obviously these aren’t for everyone but my god I love them. My mum got me them
For my bday and it was a slam dunk.

The red devil on the back is classy as hell, the colorway REALLY hits me..the Manchester on the side is great and the inside tag is nice.

Remove the footie aspect and they are still fantastic I feel.

Krusty Burger

I’m a real big fan of all the Simpson collabs. A little bit of fun nostalgia.
The colors and design are super fun and they are really comfortable so that’s great. They get crazy dirty crazy fast which is one of the few downsides..but great addition

Yellow on Yellow Bermuda

Got these recently and I couldn’t be happier. Sometimes I don’t dig the Bermuda color schemes but these ones are everything lovely. They feel good, are bright as shit, and have that tobacco-esque monotone.
Great shoe 8/10

Yellow Unheardof Piggy

Been wanting these for a minute but was cautious of the style… our pal _adiFamily converted me to this type of comfort and I have no regrets lol

These shoes are amazing. So comfortable it’s unreal. The solid pink stripes on the outside compared to the metallic shiny stripes on the inside.

The multiple fabrics and textures, the small details on the insole and heel..and then the badass box and accessories. I know they are ridiculous, but I love them

This pre-release beauty landed yesterday

I was really late to the Local News Legend game. I listened to them casually after seeing someone on here posted them. Then I asked April if she liked them cause it sounded great-turns out she’s also in the band..lol

But these songs are really beautiful, sing alongy, and just a fun album. I don’t actually listen to records, I just buy them to support the artist. So if anyone wants this and can cover shipping just hit me up.

The new Apes album..wow

This whole album is something special. It is political as fuck, deeply personal, uplifting and enraging.

These lyrics obviously hit home, but every song has something that grabs my heart or spirit and moves me.

I really think this is an instant classic and the album I’ve been waiting for.

Hope everyone else enjoys it.

Respect-EK

Red Torinos..wow

I knew I was going to like these, I had no idea I was going to love them. Holy cow.
These are serious stunners. The colors are just stand out, the fabric feels real smooth and neat. The insole being a map is fun..and the silver back, I infer as a honoring of the previous blue and silver pair.

I will be getting the white and blue very soon.

Atmos Tobaccos

In celebration of the new Atmos that -adiFamily shared with us, I wanted to share these ones. Posted them before but they are stunners.
Everything about them is pure class and are easily amongst my fav of all time.
I am WILDLY excited about the new ones

Adidas ultra tech

So these were the absolute first non low top adidas I’ve owned (Care Bears were second).

Our homie _adiFamily looked out for me real tough and I had no idea what to expect

Holy shit they are comfortable. Like shockingly comfortable. As if my foot is nurtured in a warm kangaroo pouch lol

They look really great, feel great, opened my eyes to different types of shoes (going after the unheardof piggy ones next).

10/10 easily

Care Bears

It’s not often my kids and wife both like a pair of shoes..but when they do, I get them quickly lol

These are a lot fresher than I expected. The all little touches are really nice and they feel fantastic. Our man _adiFamily put me on to shoes that aren’t just flats, and they cccoommmfffyyyy

Real 10/10

Adidas Stretfords

These are the ones. I wasn’t even sure they were actually real and adiFamily had to assure me lol. There were only 1200 made I believe.

Everything about this shoe is amazing. The suede is smooth as hell (altho like the tobaccos the black picks up fuzz), the leather is great, they are the most comfy specialty shoe I’ve ever worn.

It’s the small touches that blow me away though. The Manchester coat of arms on the inside, the Red Devil on the hell..the signed player cards and box..everything just feels premier
10/10, over the moon.

Newton Heaths 🤤🤤

The first time I saw these I choked on excitement. I’ve been following United for 30 years..in Manchester, Glasgow, and the USA. They’ve been a constant in my life (Newton Heath was United’s first name, green and gold)
These shoes are just fucking sick. The color scheme speaks for itself. The devil on the back of the shoe with the date of creation is a lovely touch. Per adiFamily’s (who was also instrumental in getting them so cheers)..strict instructions I’ve even kept the box, which is quite lovely.
This and the Stretfords are my grails..I even assumed they were myths lol.
10/10 shoe

END Spezial Bauhaus

Cheers to our friend TacoDeliDonaSauce for bringing these into my life.
The pictures are pretty good but when you see them in person and feel the softness of the fabric, you see these are really awesome shoes.
Fit amazingly, cool box (which I was hesitant to keep but it is nice)..and I like the collabs.
Really recommend

White and Blue Athens

So full disclosure..I thought these were Londons when I got them. They are not lol. But I really love them! They feel shockingly good on foot and the way the colors are, just looks real fresh to me.

Pigepn performing They Can’t Kill Us All

Just clearing out more Compost Heap videos. April wasn’t there so Pigeon did the obligatory “they can’t kill us all”
She really is a dope person and I think everyone here loves the shit out of that song. It feels as relevant today as ever.

Hope to see yall next year

Cute pink and light blue spezials

I like these cause the pink color feels like..pinkish orange? The blue stripes having a thin white stripe next to them adds a pop to the colors and they are comfy as hell. Real under stated and I love them

Myles doing Myles things , solo Pigeon doing Rotten..at Compost Heap!

My god if you haven’t seen Myles, do everything possible to make it happen.
I’ve seen them 5 times now and every single time it just gets better and better

No other artist causes such a visceral emotional response in me. His stories, lyrics, intensity, gentleness, visual, all of it.

I’ve never finished a show of his without crying

I’ve also included a brief video of our Pigeon doing a solo Rotten performance.

We are at an amazing amazing moment in folk punk

Multi-fur Spezials

These arrived today and they are precious. Multi different types of fur, and different types of texture.
The color combo feels really interesting today and the contrast with the fur is just wow.
I don’t usually buy from the adidas app because it’s annoying as shit, but these were an easy yes

Compost Heap finale review

Well Day 3 ended and it was without a doubt a 10/10 festival. The organizers put in so much work that they deserve just all the love in the world. Keeping that shit together must be so exhausting.

Overall fantastic day. Myles performed and melted everyone’s heart and made me cry. Him and Ceschi doing Friends in Real Life was an unexpected highlight. Grinning Death continues to shock and awe Denver.

Crow Cavalier was stunning (which is typical). Hanging out with Chris Og from Troll2 was a delight, having Brooke Pridemoore do a free style song and it being awesome was great.

There was a singer (band) Chris (god I’m forgetting the name off the top of my head)… but they fucking smashed.‘astonishing performance. Had the whole gang on stage tell fuck the cops and fuck your gender binary. First time hearing them and wow.

Pigeon and I got to spend a lot of time together which is always amazing and getting to hangout with Ceschi on a comrade level was dope as shit

Best tho::we got another 59 letters sent to prisoners. That means over 170 over the weekend. Just unreal.
