Via Spiga Sandals

Thursday, August 14th, 2008

via spigaIt is true, some of the gladiator sandals in this season are hideous examples of fashion trying to reinvent the middle ages. Just put them around Russell Crowe’s ankles, and all the lions will no doubt run away!! But I must admit, media has its powerful influence; you just need to see the images over and over and you are stung. To be honest, some examples of the leather wrap are noteworthy featured in these shoes are actually noteworthy. This version of Via Spiga’s Woman Undo is a smart example of how not all gladiator shoes are created equally. Here we have a pattern which is a fun black and white giraffe, a far cry from any domestic animal from Rome. The shoe’s ankle wrap design also commands attention because it is reminiscent of the modern and innovative architectural design of Beijing’s new Olympic Stadium, The Bird’s Nest. A great overall sandal, you can wear them either as casual street look during the day with a pair of jeans, or you can put them on (or off) easily for a hot cocktail date. The flat heal and leather topped foot bed with heal pad allow for comfort even allow for wild dancing all night long. The round toe thong post might take a bit getting used to, but together with a fun nail polish color, it will definitely pay off in the end. The Via Spiga Undo comes in size 6.5 only. Now it’s up to the gladiator to find his fitting Cinderella match.

Teva Halyard 2 Boating Sandal

Monday, July 21st, 2008

Teva Halyard 2 Boating SandalSandals are a perfect way to keep feet cool and happy in the summer in the summer heat. Unfortunately, with summer comes water, and with water comes notoriously slippery sandals. In order to help prevent loosing traction Teva has created the Men’s Halyard 2 Boating Sandal. This highly comfortable sandal comes in sizes 7-14 and uses a “Shoc Pad Heel;” for superior shock absorption and a compression EVA midsole which has a natural foot contour. The most important aspect to this pair, is their ability to promote superior traction even under the wettest conditions. Featuring a “spider rubber” outsole for superior grip, multi directional grooves cut in to displace water at opposite angles, thereby improving stability even further. The outsole is also non marking so there will never be any scuff marks left on a boat deck, and there is an included anti microbial agent included within the rubber itself to halt bacteria growth and potential smell. A clean looking pair, the Teva Men’s Halyard 2 Boating Sandal uses very earthy tones of khakis, browns, off whites, and of course the Teva symbol for a classy finishing touch.

Puma French 77

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

Puma French 77The Puma French 77 Shoes are some of the hottest styles of Puma on todays market. Offered in 13 distinct colors (green on white, black/blue on white, and red on white to name a few), each is dedicated to a sporty/modern twist of the old school Puma GV Special. The major difference between the two styles is that the 77 has a crisper, more streamlined look and feel. These shoes have a very smooth nubuck (very soft leather) upper, and a perfed toe box of varying colors which then connects to the clean rubber outsole. An extremely comfortable shoe, the French 77 style always fits true to size and will offer the type of foot support you are looking for from the get go. A nice little benefit to this pair is that they are also very easy to clean if they do wind up scuffing, and are not as slim fitting as some of the other sporty styles by Puma. Overall, the Puma French 77 Shoes are a perfect everyday shoe and come in enough styles for anyone to look good.
