Walking faster with Nike Free Run

The other day I decided to try a new coffee joint a friend recommended awhile back. I'm no coffee expert but Mass definitely is a close contender, so I brought him along to taste test it. We went to Ozone Coffee and while we were there, we grabbed a quick bite as well.

Took the opportunity, since Ozone was literally right around the corner, to wear my new awesome Nikes. This is my second pair of runners in the last...7 years? I have been wearing the exact same pair since 2005. I used to only wear them when going to the gym, but ever since I got these bad boys I've been wearing them almost daily. In fact, I'm currently thinking of a way to them tomorrow...

Back to Ozone: above decent coffee (says Mass) but a quaint reminder of a typical NY cafe. One of the best (and worst) things about East London, specifically Shoreditch, is the increasing number of cafes / casual diner types trying to be overly 'East End'. I think Ozone just misses that target.

Have yet to try more of the Shoreditch grinds but with these babies on my feet, who knows where it'll take me.

Paired the runners with some leather pants from Danier, Nico Didonna sweater stolen from Mass, Giordano linen shirt, Wilfred coat, and a Balenciaga bag.

I love that comfort can be such a focal point of an outfit without letting go of an original style. Oh, and by original, I really meant it! If you look closely to my previous post, you'll see my iD inscribed, LLI 84. Colours were also designed by yours truly. If creating your own masterpiece fancies you, just hop on over to the Nike iD online shop and start designing away! I used all black except for neon green in the mid sole and under the mesh. It costs £85 with about £5 for shipping in the UK.

Happy colouring!
