Was on my home from work today, when I noticed a hot East European chick who'd been serving us at our xmas party on the other side of the street. Looking down at her feet I noticed she was wearing what appeared to be a pair of climbing shoes!!!
A few weeks back I spotted a lad out in our local nightclub wearing what appeared to be a pair of flat soled walshes.
Having bought a pair of xc spikes today from New Balance, they look quite 'cool & fashionable' as well.
Though not a supporter of fashion generally (more like the anti fashion), I was wondering if I started wearing my retired pairs of fell/xc/climbing shoes about town, would I be really hip & radical??
Better still, I could get all my worn out old shoes resoled & then sell them as the latest thing in fashion to guillible people (who pay more for the ungenuine article, than I do for the real thing!!) - that way I could fund my running & my biking!!
What's the next step?? Spd shoes on the clubbing scene???
(Actually that's a bit last season as last year I went out clubbing dressed in full biking lycra with SPD shoes on after having been out for a late training ride & arriving back too late to get changed & go out - therefore I just rode down to the club I work at, parked my lovely bike outside & persuaded the somewhat apprehensive bouncers to let me in as I was!! Warning SPD SL shoes are murder on the dancefloor, you slip all over the place in them!!!)!!
