Or maybe Flashback Friday ~~~

Back in the day, baby sis and I loved our Tretorn sneakers, which were hard to find in a small Southern town. The only local source was the Racquet Club. The original blue, subtle white and even plaid gullwing insignia pairs were worn and worn out. We even had the allover plaid print. She had the red; I had the green/blue but with the more understated white shoe laces.

Over the years, Tretorns became more and more scarce until we converted to Polo canvas boat sneakers.

A couple years ago, a shelter magazine asked designer folk what they were buying for Christmas gifts. Kate Spade was giving Tretorn sneakers to all on her list. The Tretorn store opened in NY about the same time

Oh good, they're making those again! Requested and received a pink gullwing pair for my next birthday.
Available from Tretorn.com OR Amazon!

Not a sneaker girl? How about rain boots?
