Kicks

Miles got some new shoes the other day....not bad, considering they are not PRO-Keds or Chuck Taylors. (Im talking CHEAP shoes here!) Kids shoes really suck nowadays not alot of choices and I get frustrated trying to find my kid some shoes,  Miles doesn't really care he's happy regardless but I want him looking sharp! When I was a strapping young lad my folks would load us in the station wagon and head over to kinney shoes, stride rite or some other spot and I usually would get some Hush Puppies or some sort of sportie looking shoe like "Whiz Kids." or Zips. Now a days it's usually krocks or some kind of  godawful shoe with really bright colors and bad design.  I wonder what the designer of these shoes are thinking do they have kids them selves? What type of shoes do they wear? It's definitely some one who has no style or taste......hmmmm its definitely not a "Cordwainer." 

Just in time for St. Patricks day

A friend of mine named Sewer, hooked me up with these authentic PRO-Keds laces from the 70's box and all. Although all my Keds are beat to a pulp. (I'll post photos later) I'm on the hunt to find me some new pk's so I can lace them up and be more official.

Thanks man! 

As a bonus, Sewer gave miles a pair of suede 70's PRO-Keds. What a guy!

Blue jeans

I really miss these jeans of mine
gap brand nineteen sixty nines
looked good with pro-keds
or with shells
neat or painted
tags and doodles
stained from pasta noodles
even faded they fit me well
to bad they went to hell!
