Green Shoes
Posted by Charley under: Life .
For the first time in my life I started experiencing good ol’ average back pain during college. My brother Kirt, who was then working at a running store, explained it might have something to do with my battered sk8 shoes. The summer of graduation I took some of my newly found cash and went on a hunt for the perfect pair of shoes.
They had to be…
- Very supportive as well as comfortable
- Work well for walking and/or running as needed
- Colorful and unique
- Cheap
Considering ‘cheap’ was at the bottom of the list, I chose the New Balance 991. Considering ‘colorful and unique’ was just above ‘cheap’, I selected the green ones. That day I ordered six pairs from an outlet store in Chicago and haven’t looked back since. Ever seen anyone else with these shoes? I love ‘em.
