fresh new kicks

A new season of baseball means new shoes... actually it's ask player for autograph and then buy new shoes, but now's a good time to obtain a new pair... you know, since KNBR's SF Giants FanFest is this Saturday.

By nature of construction, these aren't nearly as sturdy as my old Converse kicks. But with these I won't have to debate about whether or not to wear socks... Actually, bright pink socks peeking out from behind an orange veil might look pretty cool...
