They are super comfortable & wont phase out of the trend cycle like a samba, for example. I mean they are straight from the 60s! My last pair have lasted me 6 years until recently when the soles began to crack.
In my attempts to commit to less material consumption this year, it seems counterintuitive to post about buying new shoes but hear me out– I have been returning to the idea of buying what I know I like instead of what I might like and trying only to buy when I need.

I am mildly disappointed that Sambas seem to be making the rounds all over the place, but these have been my shoe of choice since I was eleven. Doesn’t get any better.

You probably haven't heard of this sneaker brand but it’s truly the only shoe I have worn consistently since I was 15. I still feel very rebellious wearing them, and in my mind there shouldn't be any other sneakers out there. If you add an insole, you can be a cool grownup and still take care of your feet.

I have bought this book for over 6 people as gifts and every single person has told me it has truly changed their lives. I cannot begin to explain the transformative potential this book holds for everyone who reads it. It’s exceptionally written and holds so many kernels of truth which give you so many “ah hah!” moments. That fact alone makes it worth a read. However, genuine fore-warning that it will make you question everything you have been taught & told to absorb as universally applicable and transcendental.
