“Ain’t nobody dope as me, I’m just so fresh so clean…”
For some reason, that’s the song that goes through my head every time I buy a new pair of shoes. No explanation.
So these sexy things came in the mail today. I still have a week to go before I can start running again (says my doctor), but now I’m more excited than ever! What you’re looking at is a brand new pair of Brooks PureCadence 2s. They’re a minimalist shoe, which means a somewhat thin, flexible sole, almost no drop (4mm), and they’re built around a more natural running style than your typical running shoe.
Initial observations are that they fit like a sock, only twice as light. Seriously, these things feel like cheating already, and I haven’t run a step. Come on, 1 February!
