Aerosoles: Balancing Comfort and Style

Aerosoles Comfort and Style

Here’s the thing with Aerosoles shoes, I’ve never been 100% certain whether they should be described as “comfortable and stylish” or “stylish and comfortable.” I know, I know, it’s a super tiny thing and I wouldn’t even classify it as a worry, really. Aerosoles are both; I get it. But it can’t be a perfectly even split between comfort and style, can it?

Maybe. Aerosoles has been making great shoes for more than two decades, so they know a thing or two. They have bustling offices full of designers, engineers and people who know all about things like welts and insoles and leather and I don’t even know what else—and it’s all about finding the right balance of comfort and style for each shoe.

Runners World Best Buy: ASICS Gel-Blur33

Asics Blur 33

There are 33 joints in the human foot, all working together to ensure every step you take is smooth, natural and efficient. At ASICS®, that simple idea was so inspiring that they created a collection of lightweight footwear around it. The 33 by ASICS collection is designed to be flexible, lightweight and comfortable. One of the first styles from the collection to hit the running circuit is the ASICS GEL-Blur33—and it’s coming soon to OnlineShoes.com.

The GEL-Blur33 is super-lightweight. As a matter of fact; depending on your shoe size, a GEL-Blur33 running shoe weighs in at around 8 ounces—that’s about the same as a cup of water. But just because it’s lightweight doesn’t mean you should worry about cushion or support. The heel of the GEL-Blur33 features the GEL® cushioning system, and that rolls right into the Solyte® (“so light”, get it?) midsole so you get a smooth and cushioned stride.

UGG® Australia: Bold & Comfortable Fashion

OnlineShoes.com Walking Club

UGG® Australia shoes and boots may be more popular now in North America than pretty much anything to ever come here from the Land Down Under. Now you may try to argue the point by cataloguing various movie stars and late 80s bands, but that is not really the point. Besides, they all probably wear UGG® Australia boots on a regular basis, too. People LOVE (yes, in all caps just like the brand) these boots.

Oddly enough, these lambskin boots began their journey to our shores by first warming the toes of Australian surfers while they waited for the right surfing conditions. That’s right, big fuzzy boots on a white sand beach; you were picturing that correctly. Okay, technically, the best surfing conditions often occur in early morning hours when the sun has yet to warm the water or the sand, but the whole fuzzy boots-in-the-sand picture is still somehow unusual.
