Creative Recreation Dicoco Sneakers Preview

What up readers. Been away for awhile, haven't had much time to post. I did a post about new brands being considered when buying shoes, and here is what I've done. Keep in mind this is just the beginning, there's much more to come.

Okay, I purchased these from KarmaLoop last week, and they got here today. These are the Diococo Sneakers in white by Creative Recreation. I haven't really worn these yet, just once to see if they fit well. So, this'll be a preview.



The box they were in really impressed me, I think that the box is really the defining aspect of any sneaker. This box could be used as a bag. There was a little drawstring on the side opposite the opening, and you could just carry the box around with the sneakers inside. To actually get to the sneakers, I had to lift a flap and slide them out of the cardboard casing. Very good presentation.

Now the sneakers theirselves are just all white all around, nothing too flashy. They are mostly patent leather, with a glossy finish around the toe box and on the two straps. The leather is of good quality, and may require careful watch. I like the way the sneaker slims as you get to the toe box, I feel like that will make the creasing that you sometimes see on the toe box will be minimal. The sole is made of rubber, but not the rubber you get with canvas sneakers. This rubber feels tougher, and thicker. That's a good thing, it makes you feel good knowing that the sole isn't made of weak material.

All in all, my first impressions of this shoe are pretty good. I plan to wear them sometime next week, then I will put up a What I'm Rockin' post. Peace.
