...and then I go look at their offerings.And I think, really? Simple? Less > More? That goes with paying $55-60 for a pair of sneakers? For real?
I guess it is "less > more" in the sense of "I will be rich in this way of paying a lot for a few nicer items rather than having a lot of junk." But that's not really what I think of as simple. I think of simple (in the positive sense) as meaning that you don't obsess over the brand of your tennis shoes.
I'm glad they make the planet happy, though.
Just going off this ad, I assume that the target market for their shoes is the sort of young, environmentally-conscious person who will be attracted to a "less > more" or "simple" philosophy, where "simple" means opting out of the McMansion or Jimmy Choo type lifestyle.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I don't really see "simple" or "less > more" as having as much to do with the price point of one's purchases (within reason) as with the quantity of the stuff one has.
All this being said, I like the look of those shoes!
