"They're turning kids into slaves, just to make cheaper sneakers. What's the real cost cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper? Why are we paying so much money for sneakers when they're made by little slave kids?" ‘Think About It' - Flight of The Concords (1.26).
NO MORE must we a) support child slavery b) pay so much money for sneakers. Because we have Spring Court.
Originally made in France for tennis greats, Spring Courts are designed in the croissant country using tough natural rubber soles, lined leather and thick Indian cotton. They're double stitched, have arch support and a removable insole. This combats another sneaker-related trauma - sweaty feet. Those partial to a stint on a fixie will know that after a few trips, sneaker sides get scuffed, soles get cracked and feet stink. No no. SC's have eight ventilation channels. These are kind of like speed holes for feet - keeping soles cool so you can ride extra fast. Without socks. Genius.

About
TwoThousand is a subcultural guide to Sydney, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Sydney writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence TwoThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
