AB's shoes

I think I forgot to share this with everyone here... sorry, my brain has been mush lately.

But at the Friday dinner, when Alton commendeered my camera, I asked if I could have a photo of his shoes. He asked why. I told him I overheard him talking about them as we went into the room for dinner and that they were Japanese Nikes.

He then started talking about them and said he would take the photo, he took my camera again and snap this:



He tried to get the Japanese letters, but his pant leg was covering it.

Just another experience to add to my growing collection.

Kewl, though I remember when he wore Birkenstocks - I think they were the Alton-style clogs (not named after him, but a nice coincedence.)

Gots to luv them comfortable shoes!

I found this link the other day. These are the shoes. Not sure about the price...

Nike Big Nike Low - Summer 2009 | Sneaker News

Only a few colors here... I'd love a pair in purple.
