You know what Nike is doing that
is totally awesome? Letting you be a shoe designer!!!
You can jump on Nike’s website
and look for sneakers (I was looking at Nike Free 3.0) and there on the left
side of the page I found the “Customize it with Nike ID” link –you can totally
turn your sneaks into whatever color combination you like. Of course I picked
the most neon-y bright color combo’s I could find (because I’m from the 80’s) and
I have to say I LOVE THEM! Super comfy
and all that, but I’m mostly excited to wear them for the bright and shiny
factor. I kind of like them best without socks though – so I might regret that when
they start to stink, but right now I LOVE THEM. Did I mention that I LOVE THEM.
I LOVE THEM!
And one more thing. You can
customize the front of the tongue with your name or whatever you want, so I chose GO on
one foot and FAST on the other – for a little extra motivation to get after it.
And one more other thing. I’m not
a huge Nike person, I have a few things here and there but not more than other
sportswear company items – so I’m not trying to force you into a Northwest
brand. This is just such a great marketing
and sales tool – you need to know about it. And sorry, it’s not cheap, but for
a custom item, I didn’t feel like it broke the bank either.
And lastly – I’ll be so upset if I
get them dirty. Wah. Mine are below - the swoosh is actually the neon orange color too - but the flash is making it looks white - but it's not. That would be way too normal.
