How many kms do you think you've put into them?


Over 500 (but they wouldn't know that) the rest of the shoe looks very new still, you can still read the label on the inner sole. The rest of the tread is still in good nick too and you can read "NIKE" clearly on the sole still.

It's just a real random spot to wear away, and shouldn't full stop.

Yes, I just got an email asking me to return them to where I purchased and let them know if they don't accept them.


Not sure of your size, but are you above 90kg? 500km in an airmax when you're running in them sounds about right TBH.
I dont get much past 600km and i'm about 88kg but I'm using trail running shoes that are built for this stuff.
I'd think it would be related to your running stride. You must be a predominant heel striker which would be wearing down your heel.


It pays to ask, I took them back to the store, I couldn't find my receipt but knew the date I brought them, they gave me a full refund, O just picked another pair of the same value to which they told me they were on sale so I got some money back too.

Has anyone used the $15 pub voucher from the West End QR scanny thing?

Is it for West End only or any drink?

I think it is for WED only, which is why I deleted mine.

It does promote all Lion products on the ad in the paper, I'm hoping I can get my gins on it, might have settle for a couple of pints though, having a Tuesday beer only happened once in the past 5 months, that was on my dad's birthday.

You’re missing out drinking that over priced lolly water.

One thing I will say thats positive about West End Draught is that they're the best beers to pour. The WEDs I pour are a work of art and could be used to photograph for promotional material.

The chick behind the bar said I could have my gin's with mine, I may have accidentally downloaded it on my other phone too.

I also had a dinner voucher that I won the other night so I treated myself to a t-bone, I was just about to finish up and leave when a bloke comes in and starts chatting with me and insisted on buying me a drink.

He was looking at the TAB screen and asked "what do you think of number 8?"

I said "Sugars is on it, it should go alright"

He plonks $100 on it, it comes in at $10.70 although he fixed it at 8's, he buys me another drink, announces he's leaving and leaves $100 in front of me and thanks me for the chat, he wouldn't take it back and then tells me that money is nothing to him, he owns what I regard as the best Italian restaurant in the city.
