Adidas Countrys. The best, most comfortable sneakers ever made. I wore them for several years starting in freshman year in High School when I was on the Cross-Country team. (Yeah, ME an athlete... who woulda thought....) Adidas stopped making them by the mid-80's . They're "old school" by today's standards, with completely leather uppers and the "gum" treads. The impact absorption was a rudimentary layer in between the tread and the shoe itself and there were no space-age anti-torsion, hyerspace-linking, mega-poly-super-laser-guided, pronation correction technologies employed. But they were wicked comfortable, long wearing and MAN! you could run all day in them. Would I want to run the Boston Marathon in them today? Hell no, but for basic comfortable, kicking around sneakers that look good --They can't be beat and cost about half what a decent modern running shoe costs. Adidas started making them again and I bought some. They're WIKKID PISSAH! ![]() |
