New Nike Pacifics

I went shoe shopping this morning and walked out with two pairs. 👟

I originally went to look at some Adidas I spotted in Osaka last month, but they didn’t feel great once I tried them on. I kept browsing and found some blue Nike Pacifics on sale that looked and felt good, so those went in the cart.

Then I wandered into the women’s section and found the same shoe in different colors, including a white version and a brighter blue. I knew right away I wanted the white ones. The blue took a little more thought, but I went with the darker shade since it’s a bit less flashy. (see bottom photo)

I used the store credit card and got $30 off, so two pairs of shoes for $93 after tax. Not bad at all!

Both pairs are heading to Japan next trip. One will stay there permanently. My Japan wardrobe is already pretty set since I left pants, shirts, underwear, and my Converse high-tops there last time. The goal is to eventually travel between our two homes with nothing more than what I’m wearing and a spare set of sleeping clothes for layovers. I think it’s a good plan. 😄

Quick FYI: I always lace one shoe differently than the other. Just a habit I’ve had since I was a kid. 😄
