Remember lacing up those old Dunlop volleys for school sports? Simple and classic, those shoes were all you needed for running, jumping, and kicking. Whether playing tennis or running on the track, these shoes were part of Aussie kids’ carefree days on the field. Do you have fond memories of wearing your Dunlop volleys?

No fond memories at all. They were 'issued' to we new recruits on march in to Army Recruit training. They were an absolute nightmare to run in. And we had to keep them in pristine condition every day.

Don’t think I ever had these but I do remember wearing white sand shoes for school sport. They had to be kept white, we painted them with a white paste like product, it was quite wet, so we had to then let them dry for a day or two before we could wear them. Luckily we wore white socks with them as some of the paste used to come off on our socks. We had to replace our shoe laces if they became dirty and couldn’t be cleaned or washed. I can still remember the smell of the cleaner we used.

No need for memories I see these bring worn around all the time by all sorts of people and age groups and with BIGGER holes and MORE DIRT
