Anyone got a good place to proxy Converse Addict from? The new FW release looks good and they make them in an 11.5 which should work. 

[Geeman]

Take a look at  Selectiv in Bangkok they stock Addict and ship to uk. Also Foot monkey may also have them IIRC

I’m a sneaker collector and I know the Air More Uptempo 96’ doesn’t even sit well within the sneaker head circle but I had to add these to the collection.. Tear me up SuFu fam.

These are for a very specific crowd  when you hit a certain number of shoes you start to buy crazier stuff

Like I said not many on here are gonna appreciate these, but I knew people would enjoy ripping on these and I'm all game for it

Deadstock Buckweat's

Still stuffed with the original wax paper

Made in California circa late 90's-2000

Brown colourway

.

The 3-point arch support is lovely!,

...and to complete the hat-trick

Notice the black pair has stitch-through on the foxing tape.. its like the chainstitch run-off of the sneaker world.

I first spotted them many years ago on this very forum knucks (although they do appear in old sneaker editions of Boon) occasional poster Kemedia Club sometimes swings by with pearls of wisdom re- Levin Scheme, Deer Hunters ect and he had a pair.  I eventually tracked down the white and brown pairs when a Yahoo seller listed about 30 pairs of deadstock, i found the black pair some months later.

From what i can gather.. manufacture shifted from the US to Korea around 2000 and according to forum member Blackadder 'Buckwheat had been making pumps in the US since the 40's, bought out by a Japanese company sometime around 2002 when they were stocked by Beams for a short period' 

Ive never actually seen the versions which are made in Asia but i stopped hunting when i found all 3 colourways,
