These loook original but done some further tracking down of a pair. Seems some hammers fan has "customized" a pair of claret and white. :D

Quite a few of the specialist Mod shops stock some weird and wonderful gazelles.... on the back of the Britt pop audience generally coming into the Mod mainstream

you can create your own pair of gazelles in whatever colours you want on the adidas website.

a bit more expensive but not that much if you really want them.

The whole "Adidas" thing yet to catch on over here. They don't have mainstream retail distribution to anywhere near the same level as Nike, Reebok, and Under Amour. And even more surprising is when they DO have a presence it's adult sizes, not youth

They were about 2-4 years ago.

They attract a premium now though when they come up for sale from leftover or deadstock.

And you can make your own (as quoon says) via the Adidas website, but from memory the colours aren’t quite right

Adidas announced a new pair of exclusive 'Indoor Super' trainers Sunday just gone.

A bit different to gazelle's but along the same style! Not sure if they interest you or not. £80

Perhaps they will be bringing these back shortly if we keep up the form??

I remember seeing a pair in a shop in Germany, many many years ago. When I got home to the UK I told everyone ...... and nobody believed me!!

I always thought adidas originals were quite popular. At least with the indie crowd. I see the toms chino wearers of a few years back are now on the adidas original bangwagon.

Saw them on eBay but sold out
Very nice but definitely over priced, I wonder why clubs didn't cotton on to this idea ages ago and started production themselves, should have made a mint.

I wanted the claret and blue Sergio Tachinni tracksuit jacket but it was out of stock so had to settle for claret and black.

The miadidas customise service has closed. I did see a pair on the shelf in Dublin and now regret not buying them.
