I found a pair of New Balance shoes at work, puma white shoes left abandoned in my newly acquired cubical. I don't know who left them there, but I was wearing uncomfortable high heels and to my surprise and amazement the shoes were exactly my size and fit like a glove! My white co-worker thought I was being gross. I quickly explained to her that it was the Law of Attraction in my favor, I was destined to have these free shoes since I had passed by the New Balance warehouse in Brighton, Mass two days before and obviously the universe new I wanted them.

white people do love new balance shoes. they use them to exercise outdoors (*which allows them to enjoy the weather,) and to workout at the gym. white people love working out puma sandals at the gym. that should be #100. bc then we get to pretend like we're healthy. bonus points if we actually get in shape, bc then we can feel superior bc we're hotter than the obese masses of america. ps- please not that i puma ferrari shoes put the comma INSIDE the parentheses- the only way it should be done!

heh i know it was supposed to be funny but heres my real reason for buying new balance. nike sucks. i don't really like seeing tons of nike advertisements. and hearing that X athlete is being paid millions to whore their shoes just pisses me off further. add the fact that many of these shoes end up styled like they were supposed to be worn by space alien attention whores and well, i'll pick the puma red shoes simple and effective new balance shoes instead.

Oh my god. This is so good. I seriously bought my first pair of shoes to run in without having been recommended any, I bought New Balance. I raved about them (so comfy etc) and when I went back to buy the same pair when those had kind of died, the model I liked weren't being made anymore. So, i shopped around and didn't like any of the other NB so guess what I bought. Asics!! God that made me laugh. And yes, secretly, when I have been running regularly, I do feel better than other folk who don't.

So I was in a shoe store and on one foot was a Nike and on the other a New Balance& The Nike was a little bit cuter (dark grey and hot pink!) and a little bit more supportive of the arches, but then I started thinking about the tiny little baby hands that made all those adorable puma thunder desert little stitches all around that EVIL swoosh. So I asked the sales lady if New Balances were even made in America anymore and she said no. They come from all over. They haven't been domestic for years. My new Nikes are hot.

I think white people wear New Balances because the 992 (I think that's what they're on, I switched to Aasics) is one of the few decent looking shoes. It's not a fashion show. It's simply a running shoe that doesn't look like some form of urban day-glo artwork. They're also pretty good running shoes, for marathon training of course.
