Salomon


the yellow is sharper in real life. I love saloman a lot. It is so comfy and functional. moreover, they don't use shoe strings but a 'minimalist, convenient & strong ... patented Quickfit one-pull lacking system' which 'ensures a secure & customized fit'.

Salomon was born in 1947 in the heart of the French Alps and the birthplace of modern alpinism. Driven by passion for skiing and design innovation, Francois Salomon and his son George designed and perfected many of the first modern ski bindings. During the following 60 years, Salomon's commitment to innovative design and passion for mountain sports created a vast range of revolutionary new concepts in bindings, boots, skis and apparel for both alpine and nordic skiing and brought innovative solutions to footwear, apparel and equipment for snowboarding, adventure racing, mountaineering, and many other sports.

Today, Salomon products are sold in over 160 countries and the brand is a global icon. Through performance driven design, Salomon delivers innovation and progression to mountain sports; converting new ideas into action and expanding the limits of possibility. Salomon's heritage, culture, and commitment are tied together by one simple concept: the world's leading mountain people creating the world's leading mountain product.

Inventing the Future of Mountain Sports since 1947

Superstar





These were bought at Shoe Box... as they are kid's size, they only cost me $245!!! when i wear them, i feel like bunny rabbit with such big feet... :)

another sleak ones


These were brought in germany during my mar trip there. The outlet there is huge, but it is in the middle of no where, and it closes at 20:00, so i had little time to shop there. originally i wanted to buy some Y3 and stella mccartney, but they were really 買唔落手 because of the misalignment among design, material, and price.

my first adidas


This is my first adidas, at least is the first adidas i paid.

mi adidas






it's been an experience, and quite embarassing to do the fitting in the middle of the shop floor.
1. mi fit: they will measure the exact length and width of your feet to determine your unique features. (溫馨提示: don't wear socks with holes...)
2. mi performance: they dynamic footscan system measures the weight distribution of your feet, and our experts then work with you to determine the best materials and features of your new mi adidas shoe, to fit your personality as well as your needs.
-> this is when i need to 跳火圈, pretend to run and first have my right foot step on a 1 feet x 1 feet electronic board to capture my weight distribution and then second with my left foot. Trust me, it is not easy to step squarely on the middle of the board.
3. mi design: finish your shoes by choosing the color, trim and personal embroidery.
so here they are my pompom shoes... :)

Bottega Veneta




Bottega Veneta is the leader in luxury fashion best known for its signature leather goods, including handbags, luggage and leather wallets. Surprisingly, their shoes are really nice, too.
Founded in the early 1960's, Bottega Veneta is a manufacturer of consumer goods, producing primarily men's and women's ready-to-wear clothing, small leather goods, and exclusive home items. The company is reputed for quality and exclusivity and its famed signature Intrecciato Line. The company merged with Gucci Group in July 2001.
Bottega Veneta was launched by Vittorio and Laura Moltedo in 1966. It developed as a family business of luxury leather accessories in Vicenza, near Venice.Today it designs both men's and women's ready-to-wear line. Bottega is a timeless signature brand. It is also known for not putting its label or any logos on goods.
German-born Tomas Maier took the helm in 2001 and revived the flagging brand by injecting a more modern feel and reworking the traditional woven leather signature.
At $3,000 per bag, the Bottega handbag boasts classic clean lines, the softest leathers, and a classic palette rather than trend-driven designs. Bottega is most known for its hand-woven leather bags, belts, and shoes. Maier's ready-to-wear women's line posses the same timeless, ultra-luxurious look.
-> indeed i found a jacket really cool, but i have to control my shopping spree... :P

J.M. Weston (2)




i call them lego shoes... i tried them on for over five times (while i was waiting for others such as k and pd to decide what shoes to buy), and i couldn't help smiling and feeling happy wearing them...

They are not my usual style: my usual style is one tone, plain colours, mostly dark ones... these are really exception...
