@beautiful_FrEaK are you using an iPhone 13 or 14? your pics have got that white halo from over-sharpening along the right hand side of your jeans

I noticed Kafka Mercantile have a small selection of Lot220A Jeans, Tees, Sweats n Hoodies

Anyone have a pair of Wakouwa deck shoes, if so what’s the sizing and fit like? I was done with JP deck shoes after my Asahi disaster but I’ve always had my eye on these

@Maynard Friedman seen a few pics of these and referred to as an early XX model

There was also The Thunderdome just outside city centre M’CR on Oldham Road, it wasn’t around for too long, and a bit further North Manchester there was the Hippodrome in Middleton

A pair of Evisu around 1994 from Aspecto in Manchester and then a pair of Red Ears from the Paul Smith shop back in 1996 or 1997. Happy days.

Sheffield

I had a pair last year, the sidewalls rubbed my little toes raw and the uppers felt a bit tight around the laces. Size 26.5 - the insole measured 28cm and I’m a UK 8

I have to put up with Lewis Capaldi etc at work so can’t beat a bit of hard industrial techno to rinse that crap out of my ears when I get home
