I’m Screaming Awesome with the New Double Upper Collection from Lady Foot Locker

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Seriously, these have got to be the best looking Converse that has come around in a super long time.

They come in all sorts of amazing colors and still give the awesome quality behind the Converse like. Lady Foot Locker wants everyone who wears them to “Tread Loudly” and seriously, how can you not follow the rules in these shoes. I fell in love with them the minute I saw them and it’s not only because I love Converse, it’s because the matching of the colors in a coordination that is too die for. Here are the ones Shoe Boxers loves.


The Orange and Grey Chuck Taylor Double Ox: Who would have thought to pair orange with grey? And whoever thought of this shoe deserves a raise or at least a pat on the back. It not only is an awesome summer shoe, the colors on the shoe make it easy to pass off without wearing any socks. I would love to wear this shoe paired with a pair of cute Capri’s and take a walk with my dog through the park.


• Converse Men’s Double Ox Upper: This shoe would go great on a man’s foot that is walking along side the women wearing the orange and grey double ox upper as above. They are the perfect match of colors the orange and the tan and would look great, as stated above, without wearing socks as well. They would complement any guy’s outfit and what guys doesn’t want to look good in his shoes as well?

GAP Expands Shoe Collection

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

GAP has always had a few shoes in its lineup. But recently they have expanded that line up to include more than a few. Currenly on their website, GAP has a complete selection of the Spring Trends. Flats, Espadrilles, Wedges, thongs, casual wooden platforms and even Converse. This is a great site to buy your trendy shoes, as the prices are reasonable. So once the season is over, you don’t mind if you have worn your favorite shoes into the ground. It’s not like trying to preserve your favorite pair of designer heels. (Can you imagine wearing out a pair of Jimmy Choo’s or Christian Louboutin’s in a couple months??)

I’m wondering if this new selection of shoes from GAP happens to be because of the success of their new shoe shopping site, Piperlime.

Step up Your Game with Some Color

Friday, March 16th, 2007

Are your sneakers basic white, or black or brown? Mix it up. Add some spice to your footwear. Try a little color with your sneaks. Every major athletic shoe company has some jazzy sneakers. reebok-sj-retro-aztec-sneakers.jpg

Check out this Reebok SJ Retro Aztec sneakers in blue/citron/red/navy. $80 at Nordstrom.

I love Puma’s sneakers. They are actually my sneaker of choice. I used to be an avowed Adidas fan. Especially when I played tennis everyday, but the style of Puma is right up my alley. I in particular love the laceless styles that they make. I travel quite a bit for work, so being able to pull those suckers off and throw them right back on without lacing is ideal for airport security lines. Check out colorful sneak: LAB II WOMENS
Color: Violet Quartz/Orchid Purple/White
Price: $70.00

Originally released in 1981, the LAB II is a lightweight trainer with an unique midsole presentation. The LAB II is made of mesh.

Now, Adidas still is on track with great shoes, and colorful ones at that. I love this red sneak. The Spider is $90 and is pictured in Victory Red/Amber. Hot shoes.

Who doesn’t love old school Chuck Taylors? My colleague at Shopping Tips Online paid homage to Chuck Taylor’s recently. Well, old school school meets hip hop bling with this metallic high top Chuck. Right on time for the spring metallic shoe trend as well.
