A selection of some of my favourite pick-ups over the last few months.

My most recent pick-ups were a pair of Nike Air Flows in the new colour way – Storm Blue/New Green / Summit White (my favorite).  I was trying to resist but as they are my all time favorite colour I knew I would regret not getting them. They are super comfy and practical with the dark knit effect on the front panel which means I can relax a bit on the underground in the morning – as it won’t be such an obvious scuff if someone stands on them. Think these will be my summer shoe.

Secondly another pair of Air flows – keeping it simple with the all over black & anthracite and a simple white and black sole. Can’t go wrong with a pair of these, I was struggling of what kicks to wear with black tights so these were the missing piece in my wardrobe.

Then onto the Liberty x Nike release – this release was set in my calendar and at 10am I was there frantically refreshing the Liberty web page to make sure I got a pair. I have to admit that I was disappointed with the “vintage” look on the sole but never the less I do still love them as a whole.

Lastly the heartbreaker… The highly limited Saucony x Packer Grid 9000 Trail pack. I was instantly drawn to this release with their juicy colour palette and from first glance the release date was added to my calendar, in the hope that they will be released in a UK size 6. I had my heart set on getting both pairs (the army green/spicy orange colorway and a pair of the rich blue with splashes of pink). But of course on the smallest size I could find was a UK size 7, despite this I tired my luck and ordered them anyway in hope that they came up quite small. But of course they didn’t so they got sent back. However ignoring the size issue they are one of my favorite releases this year.  Never mind.
