Superga Torina shoes
"we have Converse...Italians have Superga"

I wore out my mom's pair
and have been searching
for a new pair since.

And then, last Sunday,
Superga was celebrated in the
NYtimes magazine: Men's fashion.
for their "lo-fi Mediterranean cool"
What a description!

Designer: Diego Ficili.
Cost: too much now!!

Those are nice shoes. Why are they so expensive? I hope to be getting out of the house and in to the office. I remember such a thing as fresh air.

these where the hype here in the mid/end nineties. don't know why people got tired of them, probably because of too many of them around. they are a classic though...
