Who isn't wearing these?


And more to the point - which Sportswear giant is gonna have a copy of them out there for 'the kids' first?
I've been meaning to take a picture of these for ages... but I actually stole this one off a blog I was just on... My apologies... Interestingly though, the guy's called Jeff Pseudo - or at least - that's what he calls himself. You should check his blog; he seems to be in a state of flux at the moment, but what he has to say about these shoes is funny, and probably indicative of what most people wearing 'em would say.

Yep, Ruby you are SO right! The fact that the big guns missed out on what was a huge opportunity to capitalise on this 'look' with the complete famine like dry up of supply following the summer's super high demand for 'plimsolls' is slightly worrying. Now that the buyers have witnessed the potential, expect to see a whole lot more of these 'non-branded' plimsolls on the high street. I suspect, with a little break whilst we let the wetter months of spring pass, you'll see the real love for this style blow up in the summer months. I wouldn't be surprised to see H&M get in on it with coloured options for less than £20... or American Apparel for that matter!! If this is your sh@t then also keep an eye out for similar looks from Lacoste (the 'rene'), Keds, custom versions from Art Force One (paris) and also ankle boot styles of a similar flavour from Paul Smith, PUMA and a more streamlined version of the VANS ERA/Original (hopefully!!!)
