Tsubo

Japanese for:

Pressure Point
Liberation
relief from stress
Physical comfort
Emotional well being
Intelligent design

(taken from the tsubo.com)


Which is all good and stuff except for the fact that the shoes are slightly too small. Just need to wear them in is all.
But until then, I have Physical discomfort along a Pressure Point which causes me stress. This of course is not good for my Emotional well being. Now the design is Intelligent and my feet do feel Liberated. Mind you, only after I take off the shoes, but nonetheless Liberated.

what are you talking about?

Well, if you haven't figured it out. I got me some new shoes. They are from a designer who used to, or still does, work for Reebok.
They be called Tera. Now that takes you to the html site which doesn't have the shoes in the colour that I got. But if you go to the flash site, you can only see the ones I got and not the others.
Weird.
They are white with black stripes. Soles and laces are also black. A small red circle is on the back and on the tongue. Got anti-bacterial insoles or something rather. Which allows one to wear the shoes barefoot with not a worry.

Why you would want to wear shoes without socks, I couldn't begin to fathom, unless it was in case of an emergency. Such as not having any matching socks to wear with your shorts. Can't have off colour socks that got up to your knees now, can you. Unless that is the point. But, other than that, no.

Going to the zoo is also an acceptable reason.

I checked out the shoes, quite nice. Makes me want a job so that I can get a couple of the styles that they have. I also checked the retailers and the only ones they have are in Aberta, Nova Scotia, Van and T.O. And the Area code that they have for AB is E-town. So I was thinking what the hell they have it in Nova Scotia and not in Calgary and not Montreal??? Then I checked the retailer that was in AB and they have shops in E-town, Cow-town, and Van.
