I guess it's a good idea but would anyone really wear a pair of trainers made from recycled train seat covers :? and if by some strange event it became a fashion......

PLEASE GOD DON'T LET THEM MAKE THEM OUT OF THESE :shock:

if you really do want some of these they cost £67.83 plus p&p (some are a little more, I guess they are rare) and come in London Underground District, Metropolian, Piccadilly, Victoria, Bakerloo, Central, Northern, British Rail and London Bus designs. In sizes 4-11.5

Heres the web address:

If they did them in ATW colours, and if they were a little less pricey, I would have them.

Thameslink would have been a nice one as well.
Very much a retired regular poster..... If you can say that :mrgreen:
