Someone thought it was a good idea to donate this Sparco steering wheel to a local animal protection charity. £3. Thank you very much.

Car guys know how much these things cost.

Bought these for personal beaters as the sole is slightly separated. But the leather uppers are still solid. Has anyone used their resole service? Wondering if there is value for this type of shoe. $129 seems steep but these are $300 top siders. I am only $6 in for now. Thanks for any advice. Good luck out there

I used the resole service several years ago on a pair with good uppers. They came back nicely cleaned up and with new insoles and leather lacing. I’ve worn the living hell out of them for six years; to the point that the uppers are now beat to hell and I’ve bit the bullet and gone retail on a new pair (during a 20% off sale). BTW, they let you change the color of the soles when you do a restoration.

I still trip out on the money to be made in hype wear. Blows the doors off classic menswear for the most part.

But also for the most part, I don't really give a crap about hype stuff. I try to, but it's so random. Thiese air force ones are worth $1,000, but these others that look nearly the same are worth $10. And... If you think you've found a valuable pair... Well, they're most likely fake. Gives me a headache. Lol!

Hey I told you not to buy them.

Sigh; bless your heart.

But if fit me? Easy lunch flip.

It fits me, but isn't weird wearing fugazi sneekz? When the people who know what they are, will know it's fugazi?

 

[Thrift Vader]

They don't make Fugazzi in my size.
But i am down for the non-premiums in my size. ?

i remember setting alarms before school to get certain hype drops mainly supreme. wild times.

 

[sandfourman]

also i know vintage Givenchy typically gets left behind but this looked amazing and seemed super well crafted.

When I was in school we didn't even have alarms.

Rooster and bell ringers were all we needed
