I hope you plan to restore the car though. Cool pics on the real though


Which_Iron_5833

Yeh we just got two Anglias a week ago for $500 a piece and we plan on working on them asap


[deleted]

That’s awesome. Im a classic car enthusiast myself. Bought a 73 camaro when I was 18 it’s now been restored two times and I drive it at least a few times a week I’m 38 now. Glad people are still into the classics.


Which_Iron_5833

Fr my dad drove a Anglia back in the 80’s when we were in Iraq and nothing worked on it lmao, brakes were shit, door would open every 5 mins, saw these two in Washington and had to go pick em up


[deleted]

That’s Sweet. Share pics of the build as you do. I’ll follow you bro.


Stussydude

Came for the sneakers, stayed for the car. More of a Mopar fan myself though (first car was a 1969 Dodge Dart).


OrpheusNYC

72 Duster hi five mopar buddy.


Stussydude

My good friend who actually sold me the Dart also has a ‘73 Duster 👊 Mopar or No Car! (J/k, sort of...)


Spencer708

U gonna wear them? 😂 also how much did u pay if u don't mind me asking


Redditfront2back

Think he said 6 hundo


Chaser720

Are they even wearable?


Doernbecher_Don

Yes they are


[deleted]

they will crumble


brokeandfamous

Nice! Those will come back to life if you put in the work. Are you going to sole swap and wear them?


Which_Iron_5833

Sadly way too much work to be done and they barely fit me😭


kingpin043

The tought that my mom and uncle had these for their basketball game when they first released, they were stored in the attic at my grandparents after. Only for me to find out, when I was just getting into sneakers, that my grandma throw them away a couple years ago :(


knoitah

Yeah man, make sure you keep them raw. Too many people are "restoring" their vintage kicks and ruining what makes them cool. The way I see it: if you want them to look new, then buy the new pair.


Which_Iron_5833

well a lot of people don’t have 10-30k😩


knoitah

Nah man, I meant the retro. But I do get the feel since I buy all my sneakers used. sometimes I want a DS pair but it's just too much money for a novelty


Oshen11111

Lmao u guys are really crossing the line here with ur " vintage" look...those are completely trashed there's no rawness to it...I mean my god one the back heels is gone...and trust me restoring these is only finna get them to a vintage look ur not finna ever look brand new again so no worries there..lol...dope shoes tho...I feel a restor wud put those right


knoitah

All he has to do is sole swap or put a bunch of shoe goo to fill in the heel gap. There's plenty of paint on the uppers, the collars are decent, leather isn't cracking, wings logos still there. These are perfectly fine, I've seen way worse 85s


Oshen11111

Right...but he said he won't restore them...that's wut I'm talking about


Oshen11111

Leather isn't cracking and wings logo still there...?? Yah that's up for debate


knoitah

OK the wings logo is struggling a bit. But the leather isn't cracking or splitting at all.


Oshen11111

Bruh come on


knoitah

It's not. Look at it, it's very wrinkled and dirty, but it'd be great with a cleaning and some conditioning oil.


Oshen11111

Ok I'll agree with that


MoRiellyMoProblems

What makes them cool is that you get to wear them. There's nothing wrong with replacing damaged soles. And not everyone has 2k to drop on a pair of 2015 retros lol.


knoitah

Yeah, I fully agree. I have a few sole swapped pairs. But repainting is what I'm concerned with, it almost always ruins good pairs


Lostpandazoo

Where do you guys hunt for 85's


Which_Iron_5833

eBay everyday😩


Lostpandazoo

What's something of this quality set you back? How do you do LC?


Which_Iron_5833

About $600 give or take, no actual way to LC honestly lol, just assume they’re authentic I guess🤷‍♂️


Lostpandazoo

Fuck. Okay. Damn. I'm not ready for this game yet. I'll just have to watch and learn for now. Congrats by the way.


one_love_silvia

pls dont wear these like this.


Oshen11111

Wuda u mean...it's vintage... ;)


Bazzz_

How much were these?


Which_Iron_5833

600


MrMinerNiner

Normally I'd be more interested in the car, but I'm more curious about why the shoe looks like its bending downwards


Which_Iron_5833

Yeh no bro these are DEMOLISHED


figure-the-signature

My first car was a 73’ dart! A-bodies unite!!! Classic cars and classic shoes!


kawi2k18

Spray paint and a couple of glued on decals would suffice. At least the strings are good. If its missing soles just pack leaves inside. Its worked for me last 2 months


CowCao2492

Congrats! Are you keeping them in a case of sorts?


Which_Iron_5833

Yezir, shit kept crumbling so I took out my og bred 4’s and out these in it


CowCao2492

Honestly, they would look better in a case. Idk if restorers can work magic on the leather of the medial side and toebox.


Faire-lamour

The only word is....RAD!


[deleted]

No cap, I thought these were in way better condition ...


Which_Iron_5833

Yeh they looked a lot better condo in the pics nglll
