You know how an object from your childhood can instantly transport you back to that time? How it can, the minute you pick it up give you flashbacks of bygone days, you remember things, places and faces you have not thought about for many years? By touching this object you can remember what songs were out, tryin' to learn the newest dance, or an old girlfriend, or riding your bike with your best friend. WARM summer nights out on the stoop with your boys TRYING to drink a FORTY and throwing up all over your FAT LACES. There are FEW objects that can get this reaction from me, but this is ONE of them. ADIDAS SHELL TOES. I remember BEGGING my parents for a pair to wear to 10th grade, they were SUPER expensive for that time a woppin' 55 dollars! Now, there are many blogs about kicks and style. They will tell you about LANVIN hightops and Marc Jacobs, RICK OWENS, blah, blah... which are ALL Kool, BUT As an OLD friend used to tell me...''Keep it SIMPLE, KEEP it REAL!'' .....for my money give me NIKE, PUMA and...MY ADIDAS ( sing along now!! )
