New Kicks!


So Adidas has these super cute Transgender Pride sneakers that I just had to get...

The sneakers are called Carrera Low Pride Shoes (link to Canadian site) and they are as adorable in real life as they look in the photos. The accents and trim are pretty and even the laces have pride messages on them.

Not sure if this is a one-time thing, but I couldn't pass them up and I'm glad I didn't. They arrived today and I am super pleased with them. It's also not lost on me that today is Transgender Pride in Toronto, so talk about timing!

The expression "identifies as" gets used a lot when talking about trans and non-binary people. It's also used by a lot of bigots to denigrate the trans experience. It's an expression that I would like to see fade away.
