New Balance Tennis Shoes

August 24th, 2009 | Posted in Hot Kicks, New Balance Shoes

If you ever played tennis, then you probably know by now how important good tennis shoes are. If you don’t wear appropriate footwear, you may get in trouble with your ankles, because tennis requires sudden moves, so your shoes have to support your feet even in unexpected situations. I’ve got many pairs of shoes, but nothing compares to the New Balance tennis shoes. I’d recommend them any time, because of their high-impact absorbing capacity, which is a must in tennis.

We are going to stop today at my favorite model of New Balance tennis shoes, the 1004. This shoe incorporates four breakthrough technologies that make them so efficient:

  • Lightning Dry – this is the moisture transfer management system that keeps feet dry throughout the entire game.
  • Abzorb SBS – this is the shock absorption system proprietary to New Balance
  • NLock – integrated lacing and webbing system which offers your shoe a tight fit thanks to the lower midfoot support
  • LockDown Liner – this system secures your feet without smothering them

The 1004 offers a very good lateral support, it’s light weight and comfortable. Besides, the combination of back and orange places it highly amongst my favorite sport shoes ever. Of course, no shoe in the world would improve my tennis skills, but at least  I can have fun with a sport I like, without worrying of killing my feet. It’s true that no tennis shoes ever will look like the Christian Louboutin shoes, but I suppose my tennis partners won’t care too much about that when I’m going to beat them.

Bigfoot Found?

August 13th, 2008 | Posted in Hot Kicks

Bigfoot is that invisible creature which was never seen but which left huge footprints (can you imagine Bron shoes made for that Bigfoot?) which made people try to find it.

A press release stated that Bigfoot was found in Georgia, in the woods in the Northern part of the region.

Even Barrack Obama had something to say about this discovery: “Bigfoot is the change we have been waiting for.”

Is Bigfoot found, or is it just another hoax? So far, nobody can tell if the photos posted on the internet are real or only Photoshop manipulations to induce people into the error or believing Bigfoot was real and not just a fantasy of a creative mind.

This is an excerpt from the press release which shocked an entire world looking for sensational:

The creature is seven feet seven inches tall.
It weighs over five hundred pounds.
The creature looks like it is part human and part ape-like.
It is male.
It has reddish hair and blackish-grey eyes.
It has two arms and two legs, and five fingers on each hand and
five toes on each foot.
The feet are flat and similar to human feet.
Its footprint is sixteen and three-quarters inches long and five and three-quarters inches wide at the heel.
From the palm of the hand to the tip of the middle finger, its hands are
eleven and three-quarters inches long and six and one-quarter inches wide.
The creatures walk upright. (Several of them were sighted on the same day that the body was found.)
The teeth are more human-like than ape-like.


If Bigfoot was really found, then who’s going to design shoes for his successors? This can be a challenge for all big shoe designers all over the world: once Bigfoot found, why should it wake barefoot?

Hot Kicks Or Nothing

July 11th, 2008 | Posted in Hot Kicks

Nothing is better than a good pair of hot kicks: besides the fact that they help you practice the sports you love without worrying about your feet, hot kicks are simply hot, which means that they attract all looks and cause the envy of all your friends. I still remember those ballroom dance classes Perth was so excited about: I was among the best dancers there, thanks to my comfy Air Jordans.

Leaving aside the fact that my favorites are Born shoes, let’s take for example, my Air Jordans. In case you don’t know, Air Jordans are the top selling signature shoes for basketball that Nike has ever produced. Mine are Air Jordans 11, but there are also some other nice models, such as Jordan Dub Zeros or the Air Jordan Fusion series which comprises three models. Aren’t these all hot kicks to chase the chicks?

Hot Kicks In Black and White

Moving into my locker, but still staying in the hot kicks area, I’m pleased to introduce to you my brand new Converse Weapon kicks, in black and white, suitable for nice dancing evenings in the clubs as well as hiking shoes for my outdoor trips. My shoes, like all others in this series made of rich leather and suede and are lined on the inside with leather lining, which makes them so good to wear. These are some of my most comfortable and friendly hot kicks I like so much.

Hot Kicks and Hip Hop Tricks

Sometimes I go to hip hop concerts: not that I am very fond of that music gender, but I believe this kind of music has a real soul and the artists can create a magic atmosphere. Of course, in such occasions I like to dress in hip hop outfits, and this includes also the footwear. My Bathing Ape shoes can make every hip hop fan jealous, because they are all shiny and new, in their colors combination of green, yellow and electric blue. Their squeaky soles are bright green and they sparkle in the dark of the concert halls, while I jump in row with my friends.

What about you? What are your best hot kicks?
