CUTECHICPAWS: Accessories

I never thought I would fall so deeply in love with a shoe brand, specifically two models: Air Jordan 1 (specially the MID line), and Air Jordan 4 RETRO. But, if I think about it carefully, as I write I realize that I never imagined myself writting about anything related with my personal style or fashion in general, since I don't follow fashion-related trends, I'm not a stylist, nor a fashion influencer, just a normal human being, like you, who loves skincare and makeup to the next level. A beauty geek, that one day decided to start a new blog section related with fashion accessories, and inspired by Alexandra Pereira, I decided to expand my blog spectrum to have the opportunity to continue writing about another topic that I love, and as a good shoes addict.. I have decided to start with sneakers.

Started out as sneakers specifically created for basketball players, like Converse in 1917, Air Jordan sneakers started to became so popular that they ended up releasing multiple designs and color combinations, becoming immortalized in many wardrobes around the world. Air Jordan, an sneakers brand produced under the Nike INC label, were the first pair of sneakers created for Michael Jordan when he was a player for the Chicago Bulls: 1985, November 17, designed by Peter Moore, Tinker Hatfield, and Bruce Kilgore.

Its recognizable and special "Jumpman" logo has its origin in the photograph taken by Jacobus Rentmeester, taken before Michael Jordan went to the Olympics as a member of the United States basketball team, in the summer of 1984.

But, what really makes Air Jordan's sneakers special?

Innovative construction:

Fixed straps to the forefoot and ankle for more stability, a heel cup for extra support, padded ankle collars for a more comfortable fit, air cushions, and the winged logo on the upper part of the high tops, but the most disruptive and innovative elements were the color range, since the brand, in the beginning, combined the three colors (red, white, and black - Chicago bull colors), instead of all white or black according to the NBA regulation (NBA 1984 basketball sneakers regulation), so everytime Michael Jordan laced up his jordans 1, he was fined with 5.000USD, passing from BRED to BANNED.

Air Jordan 1 sneakers are categorized into three categories: High, Mid, and Low; and I already have my eye on many models like the Air Jordan 1 MID Strawberry and Cream, and Air Jordan 1 LOW Strawberry Ice Cream. As you may have seen in the main photograph of this post, I currently have 6 pairs of Air Jordan 1 MIDs in my small shoes collection, with obvious plans to expand the collection in the future, but, meanwhile, I will gradually write about each model of my small collection.

We are currently witnessing a reality where the whole world is in turmoil due to the discovery that China has been the world's factory since always, producing for all types of national and international brands and companies, from low-cost to large luxury brands. However, there are people who always knew what was going on and decided to immerse themselves in the Chinese market, starting to test different types of Chinese brands from different sectors, discovering a completely new world that has gradually opened our eyes, positively changing our way of thinking about the country, as well as the products and services they create and offer, discovering brands such as Xiaomi, Huawei, TCL, or Cubot (electronics and IT); Jessup, Docolor, Beili, Bioaqua, Herborist, Proya, Flower Knows, Catkin, Chando, Judydoll or Florasis (Beauty).

And once you open your mind to a new world, full of opportunities and possibilities, you begin to expand your spectrum, discovering new products, companies, and ancient stories that go beyond the Western world. In my case, I started with electronic and computer brands such as Xiaomi, Huawei, and Cubot, and after seeing how well they worked, I began to investigate more about the Chinese market, discovering a whole multi-sector world, which pushed me to open up to the Asian beauty and fashion market, using Aliexpress and social networks in each of these stages to reach those companies and influencers who created, showed, and offered those products, showing their quality, proving that China does not only create products for dollar stores.

China has been making watches since the 1st century (Zhang Heng - Han Dynasty), nowadays, the provinces that are known by their ancient history related with clock production are: Guangdong, Shenzhen, Zhejiang, and Hong Kong. Berny, is a watch brand based in Shenzhen in the early 90s by Fred Chu, which currently has two official stores, one in Aliexpress, and the other one on its website.

This watch model by Berny is the 2766L-SRG, bicolor, chronograph, with a Hattori VJ45 movement (analog movement), produced by Seiko, the mechanism is quartz powered by a Renata R364 364/SR621SW battery, that last up to 36 months (3 years). A sleek design that seamlessly integrates into professional and casual settings, with a precision complemented by a striking design that catches the eye.

This model, built in highly resistant stainless steel, waterproof to 4.30M (3ATM), weighing 80 grams, combines two shades that make it stand out visually more than other combinations: silver and rose gold, a combination that is easily integrated with most everyday combinations, being especially perfect for lovers of neutral or soft shades for their daily clothing looks. Finally, the icing on the cake is the butterfly clasp on the watch band, which elegantly and securely prevents the design from being disrupted.
