To explain my decision to include these next kicks as part of my shoes of the summer, I will need to give you a bit of a backstory.
I suffered a very serious injury when playing football in the UK in 1998, and have had over 15 years of ongoing ankle ligament problems. As a result of this I have had to undergo a number of quite serious reconstruction operations, but nothing has seemed to help, with ongoing pain and discomfort preventing me from walking far, running, or playing any sports.
That is until I started wearing these latest incarnations of the innovative Free shoe from Nike a few months ago.
Amazingly comfortable and lightweight, the shoes combine contemporary style with functionality as they strengthen your ankle ligaments/muscles while you wear them. Within weeks of wearing them I was able to run again, and my ankle now feels stronger and better than it has done for years, and I put that down to the help of these sneakers.
In terms of style, the shoes can be used as runners, or as a lightweight everyday shoe that works well with skinny jeans.
Although this isn't technically a fashion sneaker, due to my personal circumstances I'm a big fan of this shoe, and I look forward to seeing what the future holds for Nike's Free series.
