Five months ago I reviewed my first pair of Allbirds in a pretty pink color. I'm very happy with how they are holding up. I don't wear them as my everyday shoe but I do wear them often on the weekends. (Note, these shoes are not meant to be used for running) 

His and hers Wool Runners

My husband has two pairs himself and he wears them everyday. The very first pair he bought over a year ago started to wear out in the toe box. There's a hole starting to form where the big toe is. Even though the durability of the shoe seems to have a lifespan of a year (if you wear them everyday), he still maintains they're the most comfortable shoes he's ever worn. I have to agree. These feel like you're walking on clouds. 


 Size wise, these run small. I'm normally a size 5.5 but I can fit a 6 in these. I'm almost never a size 6. I like that you can also wear them without socks. They are made out of wool and they're very soft and breathable. That said, I do not recommend wearing these in the rain. Ever.


As you can see they do not have much traction.

I love that they match my Coach Dinky.


Allbirds also sells limited edition laces so you can customize them. I'm kind of a sucker for limited edition anything, so I am totally eyeing these. If your insoles start to wear out, you can also replace them for $15.


If anyone is wondering, I'm using the cat scratching post to take these photos. 😂
(It's a really nice scratching post.)





Apparently you can stick these in the washing machine but I haven't tried it. I guess I could throw my husband's pair in the washing machine to test it since they're on their way out. I'm just unsure of how they will dry. It says to let them air dry, but I don't know it just worries me! These also come with shoe inserts to help keep their shape when you're not wearing them. It does help, otherwise the toe box will cave in and they don't look as sharp. 


See how you can tell in the toe box isn't completely filled out on the left compared to the right? The shoe inserts really work. Overall, I love both pairs and can see myself adding more colors in the future. My husband will probably purchase another pair soon. For $95 they're still worth it considering he literally wears them everyday. 

That's it for me! Hope everyone has a great weekend, and there should be some Lululemon reviews coming up!

    1. My husband tried the tree runners and returned them. He didn't like how they fit. Preferred the wool runners.

    2. Meant to say haven't heard of rothys but I just looked them up- not really my style.

  2. You have me sold! I’ve been looking for daily sneakers but something not Nike or Adidas that can go with more outfits. I really like these and I’ll probably get a pair :D! Maybe next month though as I’m trying not to spend this month. (:
    I really like that they sell replacement insoles and custom laces.

    1. Yay! When you do get them, let me know your thoughts. I'm still watching what I'm spending as well. It's so hard though in the fall. It's my favorite time of the year to get new clothes. =)

    2. Same! I love buying clothes this time of year. Round two of the best deals seem to come after Christmas. As if Black Friday isn’t enough! Poor wallet.

  3. Would you call the Tuke Jam purple or brown?

    1. I would say it's more of a red with brown undertones.

We tried HelloFresh for the past two months - Here's our review

Hi everyone! This post is written by my husband. Some of you may know he does all the cooking around here. 😅 We noticed we were spending a lot of money on food and eating out every month and wanted to see if a meal kit service would save us money and time. After looking at a few meal kit services we settled on HelloFresh. Without further ado, here's Jared's review. (Original post date Aug 2022). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you may have seen from Leslie's Instagram stories for the past 2 months, we've been using HelloFresh for most of our meals. The main drivers for this were to better track what we eat and because on the advice of my doctor, I should be eating more home cooked meals. Before I go any further, it should be noted that my original career path was in culinary arts, but twists and turns in life changed that. So I do have formal cooking experience. A little background story. Over the years, I've developed

Review! Lululemon's Large Everywhere Belt Bag Size Comparison Plus Video!

  Happy Friday! I can't believe it's almost Halloween! I actually have a dentist appointment on Halloween. One of my molars chipped and needs to be filled in. It's a tiny chip that I didn't even notice until my dentist pointed it out to me during my last visit. I'm not looking forward to it at all since I will need local anesthesia.

Review! Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap VS Everywhere Belt Bag Original

I'm already thinking about all the dim sum I'm going to cram in the 10 days I'm there! 😆  Today I have a review of the new  Everywhere Belt Bag Extended Strap  compared to the original  Everywhere Belt Bag  that is slowly being phased out. 😢  **** Update - The original Everywhere Belt Bag has been phased out completely.
