Today I'm taking a detailed look at a brand and a model that you will not see everyday, it's the Karhu Fusion 2.0 in the Forrest Night colorway. Karhu is a brand from Finnland that has been around for ages and sold Adidas its 3 Stripes. Yes, you heard that right!
Why I was so excited that Karhu released these and also was able fo finally find them in my size can be found out when you click into the video! Enjoy!
Check out my older Karhu Synchron videos out here:

If you want to see more sneaker reviews on retro and vintage runners then don't forget to subscribe! I'm mainly focusing on stuff like New Balance, Diadora and Asics but also Nike, some Adidas and brands you probably have never heard about.
Also feel free to comment on my videos, I'd love to hear back from you!

I just copped both ultra boost solar yellow and orange . I slept when they released 4 years ago and I had to pull the trigger. I wanted to cop them when they went on sale and I missed and I wasn't trying to pay crazy resell prices. I knew they would rerelease them just got to stay patient and trust the game.

What Accent do you have there Sir?? I Can't quite put my finger on it!! That is what you say... isnt it?? That doesn't sound quite right for some reason 😆😉. Really cool, Trendy videos though, anyway Son. Was trying to guess what Mr. loganjbaez has got, that you may already have, but you have such a fine array of shoes, it really could be Anything?! Nice, quality goods there Mate. There's some Real Art in them shoes, beautifully created. I love the Joker anyway so anything with purple and Green in, is a Winner for me. Awesome stuff here Mate.

@@HighlyAkicktive Yes, I thought we'd Subbed up to each other. Thank You anyway. I always appreciate people Subscribing, because some people can possibly overlook the smaller Channels just because they have a Low count, but we all need to start somewhere on here. Do you mean I could do more editing or more Videos?? I'd ideally like to improve on both a little. I just managed to grab a new S8 Tab, I've not even turned it on yet though, cause I'd like the whole outfit of Card, Case and Keyboard etc before I fire it all up haha!! Which will take me a few weeks to save up for. The actual tab was over 700 quid, I do crazy Impulsive stuff like that though, I could of got a really good laptop for that or a pretty decent Camera which I could really do with 😖😂. The Pen on it was what I wanted though and the lack of space in my room is hard to juggle big laptops and stuff like that around in, plus I'm a bit weak at the minute and they get blinkin' heavy on the thumb & wrist to hold haha!! Thanks for watching My Man. My mind is slightly had it from years of "partying" 😆😉, so you'll have to excuse my memory. There is a Guy from Australia that I get mixed up with your Channel. Maybe the names are Similar or just me being a little mental in the membrane area haha!! Your Videos are very professional, I always think that I'd love to drive somewhere and get the old kicks out to video, but you never know who's about, do you?? My Parents always say "Nobody would Mess with Me" because of my size, but I don't see myself as being very big... until I'm in a Supermarket full of Pensioners, bless them. Older people tend to shrink a little don't they, so I DO feel slightly big then 😂😉. God Bless Ya Son. Appreciate You. 🙏🙏. ✌😁👍.

@@dangerruss6490 hahaha, so much info! Well I mean keep working on your editing skills, you're doing stuff that I absolutely have no clue about. Also that's what's making your stuff so unique. Don't change it just because you see other people being more successful with their format. I think I had been stuck at 50 subs the longest time ever. Just slowly I noticed that I made mistakes that YT does not really like in order to push videos. As long as you're consistent and you enable YT to make money with your videos they will push them. Unfortunately that's the bitter truth, they wanna make money through the content. The worst thing you can do is give up. It really takes a lot of patience on this platform, believe me I have thought 100 times already to just quit. But in the end I'm too stubborn to give it all up

Hi David, it's simple h&m cargo pants with drawstrings at the bottom of the legs. There is also a similar version with cuffed hem. But I prefer the drawstrings as you can also roll up the pants or pinroll them, it just offers more styling options. They currently have them in several colors. They fit great and are true to size 😊 . I am a 36 in other jeans and these are a 36 as well. And thanks so much for being subscribed and the kind words! I really appreciate it!
