It was round about last month that I was on the hunt for my pair of ‘Summer kicks”. The sun finally turned out for pretty much all of us in the UK, guaranteed thoughts turned to our wardrobe! My eyes were peeled all over the place, then I suddenly had thoughts of my last TRUSTY pair of AM90′s that I’d sold after literally living in them the whole of summer 2012. All these memories just rushing back! Decision made, 90′s Summer crepes need to be got!
Next day I see this posted by Wellgosh
Telling all the ladies they’ve got size 3-6, so I had to share that on the Big Eyes Facebook page.
The colourways on these are just silly jazzy, all three elidgable for a purchase. Now, I am incredibly lucky with my shoe size UK 6 – the most average plain sailing, level pegging, loving life sized feet you’re going to meet. I can get most releases if I want. Unfortunately being a pauper art student, I can’t strictly afford all the crepes I’d love to, as it’s usually spent on hundreds of rolls of film, sketchbooks and all that malarkey.
About a week later, I visited Selfridges in the Bullring, had a little meander round, of course going to the Offspring concession (Birmingham being my home town). They had the 90′s of choice in. I had to buy them straight away, no hesitation! Do they fit me? Yes, thank you here’s my money, and a student discount? Thank you very much!
The speckeled base on the toe box and around the ankle and the camo colours really fit in well with other colour schemes I wear. They had both the ice blue and the metallic silver, but I HAD to go with the camo ones. Both available at Wellgosh still, from sizes 3-6 (links above).
Here they are in action, at my studio space! Infamous furniture in there also!
We love seeing your pick ups just as much as we love to wear ours, so tweet us @BigEyesLittleSoles and @ us on Insta @BigEyesLittleSoles
Peaceeee

For the smaller footed fiends out there, you’ve got your pick of the crop with both kids and women’s sizes available.
Choose from a full mesh upper or add some suede, if you feel like giving your kicks a premium feel. I can’t tell you what colourways to go for but one thing I will say is that the lunarlon sole, cushioned collar and EVA foam outsole will all work together to make your feet super comfortable.
