Covering another gallery today in a different town so had a quick look in two shops before I had to open up.
I wish the jumpers fit, especially the Alan Paine one! Incredibly soft, even softer than my old Loro.

But then he came to his senses and discovered Diadoras ;)

View attachment 1674271

I wore Diadora for soccer in the 80s


And here he is rocking Adidas before they renamed them Stan Smiths. My father played tennis and Borg was one of my father's fav players. And he still wears Stan Smiths

Stan Smiths are good I still have three pairs but the Casuals loved their Diadora. If I see a bloke about my age wearing B.Elites to this day, I know we can talk football for hours. Same goes for some of the old Adidas - Trimm Trabs, Stockholms, Forest Hills and the like. The Deputy Head at the school I work in is an old Man U casual, we spend hours chatting about the trips and the rows back in the day. Most folk don't get it but it's amazing how many shared experiences two daft wee laddies from opposite ends of the UK can have
