[Closed] Friday Afternoon Quiz.... Chav-wear HOW MUCH?!!!

£147.00 a pair.

40 quid from Sports Direct?

£180/pair ?

As a non googled guess I'd say £250.
I'll go and gave a look now.

**** gopin, say £139 🤮

They're probably about £160, but that's not particularly surprising. The price of shoes in general has skyrocketed. Must look at any Merrel/Vivo barefoot/running shoe, etc and all the top models are £100+.
Personally, I can't bear to spend more than £50 on approach-type shoes.

Jut found them... crazy price given they look like any other pair.

Good marketing spiel 😀

Make the best even better
With the Air VaporMax, Nike has taken a giant leap forward with the evolution of the Air Max system. Now it's even better with the Air VaporMax Flyknit 2! Sensational design elements and a reinforced heel area crown the new sneaker. Of course, it is as elastic and flexible as its operations and impresses again with its innovative shoe structure and the constant damping. So the VaporMax Flyknit gives you a lot of comfort and fun on every occasion.

Don´t miss on the Vapormax Flyknit

VaporMax 2: Ingenious technology and unique comfort
After seven years of development, Nike proudly presents its new Air system, something that has never been seen before in any sneaker! Not only the unique stud design and the completely transparent air sole cause a sensation, the technology behind the air system is also thrilling! By passing on a midsole and insole you get a completely new comfort and the springy running feeling will fascinate you!

More than a pair of Spesh 2f0, less than a decent pair of bespoke Oxfords.

£110?

Now i'm gonna google them...

£160 sounds about right.

Mrs Dubs spends a lot of time in her Asics - they are about £150 full price. Always buy last year's model 🙂

Hmmm, old holy socks stuck onto indistinct shiny rubber. Looks cheap n' nasty. But probably £130 RRP?

£250ish is my guess.

Having now googled, there seems to be a variety of price options?

They look like those cheap black plimsoles that were compulsory for gym in the late 70's so £4.99, the soles remind me of the rolls of fat that you see bulging out of those that wear "athletic wear".

I was wrong!

It's alright, all the local chavs buy them off a guy on Facebook that sells them for £50

Genuine honest mate

Judging on the figure I'm been asked to stump up recently for Daps buy the eldest "only" £129?

Spoiler!

Oh and if the OP local yoots are anything like mine, not only will they really been 'nice middle-class(TM) boys when they're around their Mum's, the Daps will be non-branded Copies, which still cost £50 somehow.

I'm going to go around 179. As flashy says, good shoes will cost more than that anyway 🙂

Daps?

You mean gutties?

£170. I bought some vapour max last week. like have a team of gorgeous virgins massage my feet with their ample top lady bits............ ;o)

I recently treated myself to a pair of Miendl Leather/Goretex walking boots that its probably safe to assume will outlast me. I can't believe those Nikes cost more

£150?

Daps?

You mean gutties?

You mean sannies?

£320? Shiny Shiny aren't they.

Edit. I've looked now. Well thats disappointing. I'm pretty sure a pair of air max were at least that when I were a lad, so not really seen much inflation.

£230?

Yeah not too outrageous

If you want gopping + £300 then how about these from Adidas?

You mean sannies?

Creps, surely.

Judging by the ones my kid has and grows out of in a few weeks they're £190, if you shop around.

£199.99 ?

TBF, over at TrainerTrackiesWorld they would be asking HOW %&*£ING MUCH? for a top end bike. And many of us will have spent that sort of money on a pair of shorts for cycling (I haven't, but I bet loads of us have).

My office in dress downs like jd sports I'm in shit jeans n giro jacket flats with band t shirt.

It's like high school all over again

I guessed a little high, still, I'm still smug about getting two new pairs of Tricker's, brogues and boots, for £75 a pop last week.

By the look of them, one would hope no more than £80.

Runs off to google (well, you know, i moved my mouse about a bit), crumbs, that is a great deal of cash for a unique street style like what everyone else has got.

Bit late to this, so I’m going to say 🤔🤔🤔🤔

£148 each.

Obvz, you need two so the local chavz would buy one and nick the other ..

amiright?

🤷‍♂️

Tyred Jr the Elder's footwear of choice. I've no idea what they cost - I'm not paying for them, he is.

To be teamed with cotton tracky bottoms (Adidas or Nike only, black only), North Face jacket (black only, to be worn regardless of weather condition and current smell, ideally with hood up until told to put your stupid hood down by parent) and vaguely incredulous, surly expression at all times. No deviations accepted by peer group. Accessories include phone (permanently welded to hand), headphones, heavy-footed stamping, all manner of dropped consonants and liberal use of 'fam' as term of address.

Several times I think I've spotted him nearby, only to realise it's a clone.

Yes, we had one of those mornings.

So, just googled it and am quite surprised at the cost..

Now looking forward to my size 9’s I’ve just ordered 👍🤪

I am restraining myself from googling.

£349?

Off to look now...

£199.99 ?

... was going to be my guess also.

Not just chav's who spend on shoe, try getting a running habit. Vaporfly 4%, fastest shoe marathon in the world, £210.

oooh, where from? I'd happily drop 150 on two pairs of trickers

Anyway, how can you put a price on shoes that give you the ability to wheelie a Carrera Vulcan with your phone in one hand and a fag in your mouth?

Surely not more than a smashed avocado brunch in Hoxton?

Lol at flashhearty's reference to bespoke oxfords.

+1

I guessed £130 which seems to be what they are in the shops.

My running shoes were £150, £45 of that was insoles but the actual shoes were just the functional rather than fashionable equivalent of those.
