Hi everyone! I'm posting from New Orleans. I'm hitting up a Lululemon while I'm here. I always like to visit other Lululemon stores when I'm traveling. I was planning on having an Aviator Nation review for you guys but Hurricane Helene threw my plans out the window. So I will try and have it up when I get back to Atlanta. In the meantime, here's an Allbirds review.
For reference my street size is 5.5. I'm usually a 5.5 in Allbirds, but for the Tree Gliders they run large. I took these in a size 5. Definitely size down.

I went to visit the Allbirds store in Avalon and got to try these on in person. I love how they use their shoe laces as the handle to carry the shoe box. It's really cool and love how sustainable they are. Even the packaging is well thought out. Plus you get an extra pair of laces. These shoes are very lightweight, best for light workouts and everyday walking. Its upper is made of tree fiber with a sugarcane-based midsole. The midsole is on the thicker side than what I'm used to. They are very comfortable but the opening of the shoe is wider and not as snug as my Tree Flyers. The toe box is also on the wider side.
Love the pull tabs on the back of the shoe.
The bottom tread is grippier than the Tree Dasher and Tree Dasher Relay which aren't the best in the rain. When it's rainy the Tree Flyer 2s are great.
They are slightly loose in the ankles for me, but I have very thin ankles.
I love the color way of these shoes. It's such a great neutral and will go with almost any outfit. I think it's the best color they have right now in this particular style. If you're interested in these, definitely size down and note that the toe box is wider and if you have a narrow foot, it will be loose and show wrinkles from the excess fabric.
Flash's tail says hello! 😸
That's it for me today! Be safe out there if you're in the path of Hurricane Helene. Have a good weekend!

Hi Leslie,
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting for Rugged Purple to show up on the Canadian site and I doubt if Tree Glider will ever make it here! :(
The only thing I like about the Tree Glider is the color combo. The sole looks too bulky to me and I don't like the shape of the toe box which is too "pointy". :) Dashers are still my favorites.

I'm sure the Tree Glider will eventually hit Canada. Maybe next month? My faves are still the Tree Flyers!
DeleteWow I love the colors of those Allbirds so much!! They’re not as stark as white but still a pretty cream :D I do like some pieces but even in markdown I feel like it’s so expensive I’ve been buying Aritzia and really like their TNA waffle 1/4 zip I recently got :) I get XS and it’s a loose TTS for me

Ohhh will have to check out the waffle zip. I've been mainly shopping at Athleta lately.
