So when I saw these in my J Crew catalogue, I was dying with excitement....
...and I won't even tell you in how many colors, I ordered these in!?! hehehe
Now I'm sure that most of you won't even understand what the big deal is with these "Tretorn" sneakers but there will be a few of you who know why I'm so excited! Not only do I love that these shoes are not the norm on others feet, but they are also super cute aaaand they have a sentimental meaning as well.
I was in grade 4/5 when "Tretorn" sneakers were the must have in Burlington. Our best-friend Julie Fatijewski was the first to show these off while wearing a "Roots" sweatshirt and a pair of jogging pants. It was even better if you could get the side trim/swish in a different color or plaid than anyone else had. My 2 favorite pairs were the pink trim and the grey plaid.
So when I think of or hear the name "Tretorn", it has a very distinct memory and style of who Kate Terry was back then! I know. I'm a dork but I can't help but love them!
