Makhe ndikhuphe into esifubeni sam kwangoko: ndigweba njengesihogo malunga nabantu abanxibe iibhulukhwe zeyoga kunye neeteki ngaphandle komthambo. I-post-yoga brunch? Kulungile. Isidlo sangokuhlwa kwivenkile yokutyela enesitayile emva kokuba ushiye umthambo? Hayi. Ngaphandle kokuba ube nguGigi Hadid kwaye ungaphuma kunye neebhulukhwe zesikolo esidala kunye nezithende zeBalenciaga kwikhaphethi ebomvu, ekuphela kwendawo yemidlalo ekuyo isithuba kwangoko ngaphambi okanye emva kokuzivocavoca, ngombono wam othobekileyo.

Ndiyazi, ndiyazi ukuba zonke izinto ziyimfashini ngokusemthethweni. (I-FYI, nalu ujongo lwekamva lemidlalo yeqonga.) Kodwa andizange ndifumane isizathu sokuba abantu banxibe imini xa bekhaba kunye neetights ezibalekayo ngaphandle kwenjongo yokubeka unyawo kumkhondo okanye kwitreadmill. Ukunxiba ngale ndlela kundenza ndizive ndikancinci, ndingatsho ukuba, bubuxoki.

Emva koko ndafumana iiteki ezandenza ndatya amagama am endiwathiyileyo kwezemidlalo.

Yaziswa kunyaka ophelileyo ngulowo wayengukapteni weqela lebhola ekhatywayo laseNew Zealand, uTim Brown, kunye neqabane lakhe kwezamashishini uJoey Zwillinger, iiAllbirds zimiselwe umsebenzi othobekileyo: Yenza esona sihlangu somdyarho sikhululekileyo. Nanini na. Kodwa endaweni yokufumana inkuthazo kwi-Nikes kunye ne-Adidas zehlabathi, iqela loyilo lwe-Allbirds lafumana inkuthazo evela kwi-Warby Parkers kunye ne-Everlanes-iinkampani ezangena kwindawo yefashoni enezinto ezilula, kodwa super-Kulungile umbono.

Emva kwamawaka emizobo kunye neeyure zengxoxo, isiphumo silula, esenziwe ngokuzinzileyo senziwe ngobuqhophololo esenziwe ngoboya obolukiweyo base-Italiya (kuvakala kufanelekile njengesiliphu). Ukutyikitya kwayo kukungabikho kophawu-bayibiza ngokuthi "ixabiso elifanelekileyo lanto."

"Ndicinga ukuba xa unodidi olunje ngezihlangu eziqhelekileyo kwaye kugcwele kwaye wonke umntu uzama ukodlula omnye komnye kwimida yemibala kunye nonyango oluvakalayo lwelogo, sakwazi ukuviwa ngokusebeza," utshilo uBrown. "Besigxile kwi-laser kwifomu ekusukeleni eyona silhouette elula kunye nesihlangu esinokusenza."

Ngamanye amazwi, ii-Allbirds zazalelwa ukuba zidlale kakuhle ngezinto ezincinci esele zikwi-closet yam-inyathelo lokuqala kuguqulo lwam lokubaleka. Ukuqala kwam ukunxiba kubo yayikwintlanganiso kunye nomhleli. Ndathi ndakuzikhupha kwiipakethe zabo ngaloo ntsasa, zazintle kakhulu kwaye zicocekile kangangokuba zazikhangeleka njengenxalenye yenjongo yejean yam evunyiweyo ngokupheleleyo kunye necombo yebhatyi yesikhumba. Ndaziva ~ ndithandana ~ njengoGigi. Bebethokothekile, ndahlala nabo. Eli yayilinyathelo lesibini.

Ndinyanisile xa ndisithi baziva ngathi zizi-slippers-zilunge kakhulu, uboya be-merino obuqinileyo obusetyenziselwa ukwenza umzimba wesihlangu uthambe ngokwaneleyo ukuba unganxitywa ngaphandle kweekawusi (enye into endingazange ndiyenze) kodwa yomelele ngokwaneleyo ukuba ime Ukuya kwiklasi yeBarry Bootcamp. Uphambene, ndiyazi. Ndazinxiba kwiklasi yam yokuqala ndingayiqondi indlela ekunzima ngayo ukubetha i-treadmill. Kodwa yabona, isihlangu esinokubonakala ngathi sihamba naphina sibambele ukukhwela ngokugudileyo kunesiqhelo esibalekayo. Inyathelo lesithathu.

Emva koko, ndabanjwa. Ndiyithandile imvakalelo yokuba nokuba bendiphi na emini, bendilungele ukuhla eklasini okanye ndicuthe kwiimayile zasemini ngelixa ndibonakala ngokwaneleyo ukuba ndingaqhuba phakathi kweentlanganiso (ebeyakuthi ilungile, kuphela kwendlela endibaleka ngayo engacwangciswanga. yenza ngexesha losuku oluqhelekileyo). Kwaba lula kwaye kube lula ukudibanisa iithayithi ezibalekayo kunye nebhombu epholileyo kwaye ndivume ukuba bendingena kwinto yezemidlalo. (Eyeleleneyo: Isinxibo somsebenzi esivakala ngathi sisinxibo esisebenzayo)

Kwezi nyanga zimbalwa zizayo, ndithathe izibini ezithe kratya (beza kwibhetshi entsha yemibala ephefumlelweyo yendalo ngalo lonke ixesha lonyaka-izinto endizithandayo zi-yellow yellow, i-mint eluhlaza kwaye ngokwendalo, i-pink Millennial). Kwaye ndizinxiba ngakumbi, kokukhona ndaqala ukuqaphela utshintsho olululo kwisitayile sam. Kancinci, indlela yam yokuzivocavoca yaqala ukuhamba ezitalatweni. Ndiyathanda ukuba ii-Allbirds zijongeka njengesihlangu sendlela yokuphila-azingxoli njengoluhlu lwam oluqhelekileyo lwezihlangu ezibalekayo. Endaweni yoko, bagcina inkangeleko yam ingaphantsi njengophawu lwabo oluncinci.

Ukuba awungowasemzini kwisitayile sokuzivocavoca ezitalatweni, dibana nenkwenkwezi ye #kickstagram elandelayo. Kwaye ukuba uyinto enjengam, kulungile, lungiselela ukutshintsha ingqondo.
