While I was writing my last post, I was thinking about what kicks are probably staples and classics in collections all over the world. I was trawling through the web store for yesterday’s post and I came across these. I thought it would be best for me to write about kicks you can actually get now otherwise it’s like dangling candy in front of a baby (or whatever the saying is).
Anyway, enough rambling… I’ve pulled together some styles that I think everyone should have owned at one time or another. Check them out…
Nike Air Max 90
This is definitely a staple shoe and has been in my collection consistently through the years. In every colourway and with any material on its upper, the Air Max 90 has been going strong for nearly 13 years and it still looks as amazing as the day it was first released. I wear mine with both smart and casual outfits and they always make my feet smile!

Adidas Originals Gazelle II
Oh how I love the Gazelle. The very first Gazelle was introduced in 1968 and although this isn’t exactly the same as its predecessors, I am constantly yearning for a pair for my feet and for some reason, over the past few years, I’ve not had the pleasure of owning them! I’m waiting for a black/white suede pair in my tiny size to come along! From the boys playing football on the field at school to me rocking mine with my old Adidas tracksuit, these have been reappearing in my life for years!

Converse All Star Hi
For nearly 100 years these have been a staple in many a footwear fiends collection as they’re simple, easy to clean, seriously classic and timeless. I used to wear these, day in day out. I can’t say I rock them anymore as my tastes have changed but I’d never rule them out! Hands up if you’ve ever owned a pair of All Star Hi’s!

Nike Air Force 1 Lo
I grew up switching between these and my dunk low’s for school shoes, the all white AF1 Lo is such a beautiful shoe. The first basketball shoe to every use the Nike Air technology and named after the plane that the President of the US flies in, this Nike sneaker is celebrating its 30th birthday this year! Happy birthday, AF1, I will always love you!
