One of the things that interests me so much about shoes is who is the wearer of these fabulous finds. A friend of mine, named Mick is an architecture major here at SCAD. Now, one might think that architecture majors, or architects in general for that matter are all very straight laced and 'sperry top sider' if you will. Mick is the exception to this common stereotype. He has over 16 pairs of shoes and has collected them over the years (per the fact that he says his feet haven't grown in years).
These Vans are Mick's favorite pair. The bottom is made from flip flop material, which makes them ultra comfy.
These are NikeID (that as you can see he had customized with his nickname in high school; 'Micknasty'. They're one of his favorite pairs.
The above three are more of his favorites..do they say stuffy architect to you?! Breaking the stereotype!
Moral of the story..next time you meet someone, check out their shoes. Without knowing anything about them, do they fit their personality? As much of it as you know, that is. And once you learn more about them, does your opinion of them and the shoes they wear change? Just some interesting thoughts..
