While the Manchester scene often seems to represent classic, old-school classic style, Danny and Matt are some out of towners looking to inject some colour and swagger with their idea of feet heat.
Both from London, they were visiting Manchester for the weekend and each rocked colourful, contemporary Nike's that worked perfectly against the edgy graf laden streets in Manchester's fantastic Northern Quarter.
First up is Danny on the left. Sharply dressed, and accessorised with headphones, he was keen to enjoy some music while he soaked up the Mancunian surroundings (possibly like Aden earlier this week). Danny works in naturopathic medicine and day to day always wears Nike Air Max due to the fusion of comfort and style that he craves. These Nike Air Safari's are colourful enough (here in Black, Pink Foil, Deep Royal Blue, and silver) but he's also into grey - well, I guess he is as he seemed very interested in my greying hair. I guess it was a compliment?
As for his partner in crime, Matt is a self employed labourer who is an avid kicks collector. He was keeping his eyes open for new styles in Manchester but was only finding good vintage in retro styles. No matter though, as his Nike Footscape Woven Chukka's in 'Night Stadium' were able to give his surroundings a modern twist. The shoe has an ardent following, all committed to the innovation, kookiness and comfort of the unique looking silhouette.
2 guys with a bold approach to colourful kicks...I just wish my greying hair hadn't been of so much interest to them!
