Well, let me tell ya ’bout these here shoes, the “dia de los muertos jordan 1”. I ain’t no fancy shoe expert, but I know what I like, and these here shoes, they somethin’ else.
First off, they got this “Zoom Comfort” thing goin’ on. I dunno what that is exactly, but they sure feel good on your feet. Like walkin’ on clouds, I tell ya. My old feet ain’t what they used to be, so comfy shoes are a godsend. These here Jordans, they fit the bill.
Now, they call ’em “Da De Muertos” or somethin’ like that. Sounds like some kinda fancy talk to me. But what it means, they tell me, is “Day of the Dead.” It’s like a big party they have, rememberin’ folks who ain’t with us no more. They light candles and put ’em on these things called “ofrendas.” I guess these shoes are supposed to look like that, all fancy and special.
These shoes, they got that look. You know, like they been around a while, but still lookin’ good. They call it “faux distressed” or somethin’. Sounds fancy, but to me, it just means they look like they got some stories to tell. Like an old leather saddle that’s seen a lot of miles. They’re mostly black and kinda creamy-lookin’, like old ivory.
- They got different kinds too, I hear.
- Some are high tops, some are mid-tops.
- High ones, they got more ankle support, I reckon.
- Mid ones, they good for everyday wearin’, they say.
I seen pictures of ’em, and they got all sorts of fancy colors, too. Some got yellow and pink, like them bright flowers they grow down in Mexico. They say those flowers are part of that Day of the Dead thing too. All them colors, they make the shoes pop, you know? Not just plain old black or white. They got personality.
Now, these ain’t cheap shoes, mind you. I heard tell they cost a pretty penny. But folks seem to like ’em. They buy ’em up quick, like hotcakes on a Sunday mornin’. I guess people like to have somethin’ nice on their feet, somethin’ that makes ’em feel good and look good too.
And you know what? These shoes, they go with just about anythin’. You can wear ’em with jeans, with shorts, even with them fancy dresses the young gals wear. They just look good, no matter what you put ’em with. They got that “cool” factor, I guess the kids call it.
And the thing is, they ain’t just for show. You can wear these shoes every day. They’re tough, they’re comfortable, and they last a long time. That’s what I like about a good pair of shoes. Somethin’ that’s gonna hold up and not fall apart after a few weeks. These Jordans, they seem like they built to last.
I ain’t no spring chicken no more, but I appreciate a good pair of shoes. And these here “dia de los muertos jordan 1” shoes, they seem like the real deal. They look good, they feel good, and they got that somethin’ special about ’em. That Day of the Dead thing, I guess. It makes ’em more than just shoes. It makes ’em a story, a memory, somethin’ to remember. They ain’t just sneakers, they more than that, they special.
I ain’t gonna lie, if I had the money, I’d probably get myself a pair. But for now, I’ll just admire ’em from afar. And who knows, maybe someday I’ll get lucky and find a pair on sale. A woman can dream, can’t she? These Jordans, they something special alright. They good for young’uns and old folks too, I reckon.
