The part that I think is awesome and silly at the same time is the way the shoe laces up. You have this little gadget that pulls at the laces and then it can hang or you can tuck it into a part of the shoe. You can't see it too well on the picture but if you've ever seen a pair of Salomon shoes then you'll know what I am talking about.
I realize that in 24 days I will actually be in South Africa. That's awesome! I can't wait!
