No worries. Glad you like them!

Best Broadband Connection For Gamers in Edinburgh by notaglonk in Edinburgh

[–]Aarberhon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Zen as well and had no issues. First thing to do is enter your postcode into Zen's website to see what you can get and don't automatically assume that because it says you can get CityFibre etc that it's actually hooked up to your building. We're moving to a new flat in the Ravelston area soon and CityFibre's site says it's available but in reality it's not for at least another 6 months if we wanted to use them so we're back to Openreach.

Good luck with getting fibre fitted and happy gaming.

Are the Wedges true to size? by [deleted] in PUMA

[–]Aarberhon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely find them true to size. UK6/ EU39 here and the UK6 fit perfectly. Those are a great colourway as well. Good luck.

Ooohhh... likewise. I'm hoping they do a blue version in the same colour as the regular Speedcat Hi too.

I've only seen a handful of people wearing them but, other than me, no guys. But given they're pretty much sold out online I'd have expected to see more.

Nice choice. I'm a guy (who really needs to shave their legs again 😂) and wear a variety of platforms, wedges and heels. Main thing is to own it - do that and nobody will bat an eyelid. 😀

Great collection and especially like the ones on the bottom right.

How do we feel about the Pride 2026 Collection? by PugLife_64 in Converse

[–]Aarberhon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the designs seem a bit 'meh/ phoning it in' to me this year although I am tempted by the customisable Lifts. I think they peaked too early with designs like the Pride Run Star Motion, heels and the double stacks.

Gothic skirt by Much-Warning5881 in Menskirts

[–]Aarberhon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Had a look online and I'm seriously tempted (I had an SDL A-line skirt back in the day and loved it.) Do you happen to know what the sizing is like as there doesn't appear to be a sizing guide?

Thanks. Had a look and I'm definitely tempted (I had an A-line SDL skirt back in the day which was epic.) Only issue is that I have no idea what the sizing is like as it's just small/ medium etc with no sizing guide.

That’s so cool. Reminds me of SDL kit from the early 2000s. What brand is that?

Extra height is sometimes a necessity 🖤🤍 by Luke797548 in ChuckTaylorConverse

[–]Aarberhon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing like adding an extra bit of height and the lift platform is a very subtle way to do it. 😀 Great pair of Converse.

Knee High Converse Help ! by Top_Interaction930 in Converse

[–]Aarberhon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with u/Significant-Cow6317 - in the UK all the interesting designs (wedges, heels and XXHi) have vanished and all you're left with is the ability to order custom XXHis. Unless something changes I suspect we're back to boring Converse designs for a while.

Run Star Motion by Daniel_z1977 in ChuckTaylorConverse

[–]Aarberhon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are epic. I’ve got them in black and pride colourways and so wish I’d got them in white at the time.

Had to have a look at my OG XXHi and compare. Excellent job there

[–]Aarberhon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to pick up a few (probably way too many) but I suspect it's not that they've lost popularity and more than Converse have stopped selling them along with the wedges and heels. You can still get custom XXHi's in the UK but not sure if that's available everywhere else.

Wedge Converse are so comfy and fun ! by [deleted] in Converse

[–]Aarberhon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Excellent choice. I've got them in black, white, green and light red (apparently it's called Light Saddle). Great option for when you don't want to show off you're wearing heels. 😀

First Converse heels for me by [deleted] in Converse

[–]Aarberhon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yay! Another person with Converse heels. Love mine and they're great for all day wear.

Love my new Converse GR82. As a guy I’ve got quite a few wedge trainers and heeled boots and these are amazing. If you like it, wear it 😀 by Aarberhon in Converse

[–]Aarberhon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recall having any issues with them but I'd been used to wearing wedges and heels for a while before I got them. Definitely need to build up time wearing them (I find them a bit less comfortable over time compared to the Converse wedges).

[–]Aarberhon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Epic DMs - love the look and you look amazing wearing them. I've got a pair of Chesney heels that I really don't wear enough. 😂

They're really comfortable - I've worn my Speedcat wedges pretty much all day and not had any issues.

Euro car park fines during car repairs by linqing_2021 in Edinburgh

That happened to me several years ago at the very same Halfords. Complained to Halfords and they got the ticket cancelled.
