An out of  the ordinary visit to the Lakewood Mall lead me to Footlocker.  I don't really go to the Malls anymore to visit shoe stores like I use to when I was younger but this Friday evening was going to be one.  But initially my visit was to pick up a pair of new running shoes for my gf, because her old Nike shocks were wearing out.  My only priority for my visit was to get her shoes and exit the store immediately.. until I saw a shoe that I've been wanting since it's release... plus they were on sale! May I introduce you to:

Nike Zoom KOBE V aka Chaos, aka The Jokers

Purple/Cyber-White-Black

Can you see why they would be called The Jokers? But these shoes are more known as the "Chaos" colorways.  My 3rd pair of Zoom KOBE V's in a different color.  These shoes are addicting.  Very light, Very comfortable, and very stylish.  The overall shoe design has got me hooked.  Ohh yeah.. and it's KOBE's shoe signature.  

Anyways.. I ended up getting a pair of shoes too! =) haha. along with my gf's pair.

Nike Free Trainer 7.0 IV Womens

Black/Vivid Pink/Dark Grey

I already own the Nike Free Trainer 5.0 that I'm currently jogging in.  When I first tried them on, I was amazed by how light they were, comfort, strength, flexibility and durability.  Not to mention the slick style as well.  I told her how comfortable they were when I first tried them on and she kinda gave me that look like  "yeah yeah" haha.  I wanted to prove to her that I'm right about the performance of this shoe that I'll mention every now and then, and after a couple wears in the Gym, she likes them a lot! I'm pretty sure she's very impressed by how light and comfortable they are. 

So if any of you guys are in the market for a comfortable and light weight shoe for either jogging or cross training within the range of around $60-80, I recommend the styles of Nike Free in any number version.
