Things i will rant about?
 |
| :( I just can't get on board with this pattern/color combo. |
I know that as runners, our primary focus is having shoes that will protect our feet, and appearance shouldn't really matter, but i am super shallow and vain and appearance matters a lot to me!
My wave elixir 7's were so darn cute, and i ran a great and pain free marathon in them! Why ya gonna go and change to this? I know shoe companies need to revamp the shoe every year to boost sales, but i do not like this pattern. Now, i am going to end up scouring the interwebs and snapping up all the wave elixir 7's like a survivalist, because this psychedelic pattern is giving me seizures. I wish companies would consult me before they change something that i really, really like!
Have you ever loved a shoe but disliked it's new design? Am i just being a shallow bitch about shoe patterns?
(Either way, i still love you Mizuno. But seriously. Elixir 7 hoarding starts now.)
Aww, I am happy our run distracted you, but I could use a good family rant... since I can't write them on my blog.
ReplyDeleteOkay. I can get behind a cray cray pattern but those are FUG. Sorry, Mizuno. Do they all come in a crazy pattern?
Hmm. I haven't had this happen to me with my shoes. I wish my neutral shoes had MORE crazy!
I hate how all female running shoes seem to have two options: boring snooze fest blue/white/grey and bright/obnoxious/pink... Why can't we get something in between? Not everyone likes these crazy bright patterns but that doesn't mean we want the snooze-fest orthopedic-looking option. I would like something in the grey area, please!
ReplyDeleteGrey running shoes are cool.
DeleteJust today I decided against having the new Ravenna 4's to be put on hold for me, because they were the light blue (boring) like the 3's I already have! NO WAY JOSE, I want the cool colors!
ReplyDeleteI like the colors together, but the pattern is too much. And though I'm personally a fan of bright shoes (and amazed I can ever find them to fit my big, wide feet), I totally see what Kelly mentioned - there's not a lot of options in any given style. Hopefully you can find the 7's out there! I'm on my second pair of wave inspires, and though I did upgrade to the 9, I want to buy up a couple pairs of the 8's because they're cheap now :)
ReplyDeleteThe pattern is too much. I like the colors though :)
ReplyDeleteTHOSE ARE SO CUTE. (I don't blame you)
ReplyDeleteThose shoes are GORGEOUS! Love them.
ReplyDeleteI wish someone would make my boring motion control shoes in fun colors! I'll even take that eye-searing combo above over my boring choices of white with blue trim or white with pink trim.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your mom situation, I hope that everything will be okay. Glad you got a good run in though!
ReplyDeleteUm...those shoes are interesting. I am all about pink, but I am not a fan of that pattern....
I had to go order the last version of the Saucony Guide 5s. Not b/c I didn't like the new color choices but the toe box has changed and not working for those super long, inhumane runs.
ReplyDeleteHilarious. I love that Mizuno is using super bright and cheery shoe hues but those are loud! The way I see it: If I am not fast, I might as well pretend and feel like I am because I am wearing killer colored Mizuno's!
