Blu Kicks

July 18, 2013

Let the GIF load! 

It’s no surprise that we love fun companies, so when “the official shoe of playing hookie” emailed me about their product, I was into it. That, and I’m a sucker for a slip on.

San Francisco based Blu Kicks line is based on the classic boat shoe silhouette of the 1960’s, but with sleeker lines and fun pops of color. My favorite part? The soles. My second favorite part? How dang comfortable they are!

Will and Victoria Leonard (the son/mother duo behind the company) were kind enough to send me the pair of Delta Greens that I’m steppin’ around in up there. Oh and guess what? They want to send one of you a pair, too!
