Bouncy Bouncy Microbounce!

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Hello friends! :D Today I’m going to talk about the benefits of one of the greatest (to my consideration) shoes from Adidas, the Adidas Microbounce.

After having tried at least 15 different trainers along my sportive life I have reached to meet this wonderful shoe, they feel so comfy and soft inside that I wish I could wear them all day long! The idea of these trainers is to give you as much bounce as possible to provide you a better jumping ability and more flexibility than a regular trainer. They give great support for normal everyday use as well as for running and other sports, I use them quite a lot when I play football, basketball or when I just go for a walk and they give very good support indeed. I have had them over a year now and even though I wear them almost all week they still look good which is another key thing to consider when buying any shoes but especially when you are buying trainers.

Here you have their main features:

  • Synthetic leather upper for light weight and durability
  • Perforated EVA tongue for lightweight comfort and breathability
  • Air mesh upper for maximum ventilation
  • Microbounce technology in the heel for quick energy return
  • Anatomically molded EVA insole for comfort
  • Textile lining
  • adiWEAR® outsole for best durability in high-wear areas

As you must have seen they have excellent technology and whats even better they look great! I have made two different sets with the microbounce I like the most, and if you like them please leave a comment that is highly appreciated. :)

Solepedia.com - The Sneaker Encyclopedia

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

Hi friends!

This time I’m going to introduce you to the next wikipedia of shoes; I’m talking  about www.solepedia.com

Such as Wikipedia this is an online encyclopedia which has been exclusively created by and  for shoe lovers. According to Jordan -its mentor- school has been, likewise The Jocker to Batman, the enemy who attempted against Solepedia’s survival, either way it has not been lucky enough because now its summertime and all of us have plenty of time to resurrect this great idea!

As you will see when entering to solepedia, there is lots of information from a high variety of brands starting from Bape up to Vans, many of them only have general information such us the brand’s origin so there is plenty of work to be done! There are also useful sections for the online shopper, the one I liked the most is about the list of ebay sellers that sell fake items, we must all recognize having purchased something at least one time from ebay so this can be a good tip.
At the section resourceful pages you will also find a big shoe size conversion chart which will
enable you to make sure that you are buying the correct size, the chart is divided per
brand because as we all know it is not the same to buy for example a Converse shoe to buy an
Adidas, sizes vary depending on the brand so this is nice info to take into account.

You have the chance to be part of a great community don’t miss it! :D
