VILLA • Join The Movement

The other day I was introduced to a new sneaker website. I'm not a huge fan of ordering things off line. The last pair of shoes I ordered were a pair of pumas, they were a gift but I was satisfied with my purchase. My 18th birthday is coming up and my plan was originally was to take a visit to the Flight club in NY. Everyday I would check their website to see what they had to offer, (http://www.flightclub.com/). The thing about flight club that I didn't like was that they were so expensive. You needed to have serious money to get some of their shoes. It wasn't even like you was getting an exclusive pair of sneakers. They just offered older releases that weren't in stores anymore.

What I liked about Villa (https://www.ruvilla.com/) was that I was paying the same amount as if I got the sneakers the weekend they were released. For example, The Sweater 7s I showed you last week, I paid $140, I wear a 5.5 in boys that's why they're so cheap, for them in stores. I got them the Sunday after they released but regardless I got them. Now if I wanted to order them from flight club, I would be giving up an extra $40, not including shipping and handling. Also both stores have more to offer than just Jordan which is a bonus for people who don't like them. 

When it comes to locations Villa has more to offer. Flight club has a location in New York and California. Villa has locations in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois and Texas. I personally want to visit both but I think I'm going to try Villa first. Check out the links let me know what you think, also if you've ever visited either store I want to hear about your experience.

Copped a new pair of kicks

Not the greatest photo but it'll do. This past weekend I got the "Sweater 7s" or "Nothing But Net". The idea came from Micheal Jordans sweater he had on during a commercial he shot with Larry Bird. https://youtu.be/1shK-j_u6LI 

There have been mixed feelings about these ones. The reason I got these was for the simple fact that I love the pattern. The colors fit together so well with each other as well as the structure of the 7s. But my favorite thing is the fact that its not just one solid color so it limits my chances of wearing them as often. Keeping them nice and white.

If you didn't get these this weekend and you want something new then I would recommend these. You could go with a shirt/sweater that fits the pattern or and all black on and have the color pop with your kicks. It's up to you though.

Waddup

Sup, My name is Ghistla (Gee-slah), but I prefer G. Ima 17 year old senior who enjoys a new pair of sneakers every other weekend. This will be a blog about shoes, (surprise!) that I want to get, I do get, or shoes that are just toooooooo hyped. Whatever I feel like that day. I personally prefer Jordans and Nikes but I'm going to try and expand my taste. I'm also going to leave links to different websites I use to see releases and stuff. Even if you're not a sneaker person you may enjoy looking at the different kicks.
You're welcome.
BTW those aren't my kicks. I'll post a picture of my own collection next time.
