I’ve always been a converse consumer, trading one black high top pair for the next, scoring a printed version at the outlet every few years. I recently made the purchase of a pair of sunflower yellow high tops that have utterly taken over my thoughts when getting dressed in the morning. I get dressed and think “how can i make the chucks work?”
they’ve truly become my “happy“ shoe, for when i’m already riding a high feeling or need to be influenced to smile. I just started taking ssris again and these shoes do more for my mental health than any drug. when i put them on, i‘m setting the intention of happiness, regardless of whether it exists already.

A month or so ago, I was with my good friend L.A. at a (party) non-super spreader intimate gathering where we discovered we were the same shoe size. At that exact moment (around 3 am probably), I was wearing Uggs and L.A. a pair of Kelly Green low Jordan 1s. The saying is true you know, that the grass is always greener on the other side, so we swapped shoes. The minute I put on the J’s something within me changed. The womb like body of the shoe around my feet, the effortlessly cool attitude, the feeling that I knew something other girls didn’t. I couldn’t take them off. I held on to them for a sheepish week before handing them back to their rightful owner and embarking on my search for my own perfect pair. It took me a while to learn the ins and outs of jordanism and to really pin point which style would really reflect my inner soul, but last Monday (March, 8th, 2021) I received my Air Jordan 1s SE Voltage Yellow sneakers from GOAT.com and ever since I’ve been standing taller and balling harder.
