eBay watch: Size? exclusive Adidas Manchester limited edition trainers

Adidas_manchester_size

As some of you might recall, the retailer Size? is selling classic, limited edition Adidas Manchester trainers and tracktops for its 10th anniversary, some of which were sold instores over the weekend, the rest being sold online this morning.

If, like me, you were one of the people trying to buy some, you'll probably have found a frustrating and in the end, almost shambolic procedure. Being informed there was no stock at the end of the billing procedure (after previously securing some online), even getting a cancellation email after an order was confirmed. Not good at all.

But where there's demand, there is always supply – and a number of the lucky few have decided to stick their (not very) prized possessions straight onto the eBay website. So if you have money to spare, sellers are already asking anything between £100 and £300 for a pair of the £69.99 trainers. Yes, really. If you want to browse what's currrently there, follow our link to the trainers currently being sold.

Perry1

We have been plugging these for some time, because when it comes to World Cup gear, these Fred Perry World Cup Edition polo shirts are as good as it gets.

All these limited editions have the Fred Perry detailing, throwing in an oversized Laurel and country name as the badge, along with the appropriate colours for the country. Unless it happens to be England, where you get red (above) instead of white.

Check out another version (Japan) over the page, with orders now being taken for early May delivery. £59 is the price.

Fiat 500C by Diesel unveiled

Fiat1

The original Fiat 500 by Diesel went on sale around 18 months back, but priced well up on the basic model. So we expect much the same of the forthcoming Fiat 500C by Diesel.

As you've probably guessed, this is another remake of everyone's favourite modern-day retro car, but with Diesel giving treatment to the convertible 500. So the same Diesel detailing on the wheels, side-panels and interior, the same anthracite colourway (pictured over the page) and new blue (above) and beige versions.

No news on price, but it would be wise to budget up on a standard convertible.

Size? to release limited edition Adidas Manchester trainers and track top

Adidas_manchester1

Remember the reissued Adidas London track top from last week? Well, there's an even more exclusive release from further up north – the limited edition Adidas Manchester trainers and track top.

It's part of the Size? 10th anniversary celebrations (so only available there) and certain to be in very short supply, with just 500 of each item being made, each numbered for added exclusivity. See the numbering details over the page – it's a bit cool.

Not ideal if you're from the red half of Manchester (as the design looks to be predominantly sky blue), but maybe you can console yourself with the red detailing. No price as yet, but expect them offered for sale from April 17th 2010.
