And a pair of Air Max 2014s
How is everyone's Thursday? Mine's been groggy. I'm sick and I have assignments due... What a time to be alive, right? But guess what I spotted last night on campus... Chewing on a cold chicken schnitzel wrap with bits of lettuce and sauce all over his clothes...? The Air Max 2014s. In all black. What he ate really wasn't important, but it was hard to look pass the mess that engulfed his white hoodie. Who eats a wrap from both sides simultaneously??? I just don't understand. One end is opened up for you to start from. The other end is wrapped up to keep all the juices in. This guy was chewing at it from both ends.
Jesus Christ, he made me cringe. Oh, and his name was James, studying commerce, or was it finance? The mess on his clothes made it hard to concentrate on whatever he was saying...
So, enough about his eating etiquette. Back to the shoe. This version released in 2014 came in all different sorts of colour ways, from bright pinks transitioning to yellows, or light blues deepening to darker hues - as with any other Air Maxs. But, black is always a classic. He seemed to really like these shoes, and his wrap. Not wasting any time between conversing and eating, he finished the thing before I even got up to take a photo of the shoes...
That's a pretty bad photo. The oval may require a bit of a trim. The shoes in broad daylight are a solid black, except for the swoosh - which comes in a reflective silver. He says the cushion foam adds a bit of height, about 1-2cm. So technically, these would be perfect for me because I need all the extra height I can get. As for comfort... He gave me a neither-here-nor-there type of answer: "they're comfortable 'cos they give you a lot of support, like that time I legged it from my ex... But the bottom's are also really hard, so they're not for all day, I guess". Well, good job, James. That was a terrific answer, wonder why she's now your ex? Luckily, I've tried these shoes on before, and he's 50% on the ball. When I tried them on, they seemed to look and feel really chunky on me, and the soles were indeed very stiff. I would say, yes, these shoes are great for getting you to and from a short day of uni - and perhaps, avoiding your horrendous ex? But if you have work from 9am-5pm, maybe have a read of the Roche or Flyknit posts.
After the 20 minute photoshoot in the dark, I walked him over to the bin. He says he would rate these a 7/10, as with the entire Air Max range.
PS. So if any of you need a getaway shoe, these are perfect!
PSS. Here's a better photo of the shoe because unfortunately, I don't major in photography.
