My Nike Stutter Step 2, somewhat broken in
Many of the photos here were posted on my Instagram page shortly after they were taken. However it always has been my intent to also put them up here for several reasons.
There are any number of Flickr visitors who are not on Instagram or are unlikely to find my pages there. And photographs here are of much better quality, and not limited to 10 photos per post.
I have recently decided not to post new content on Instagram. While I don't intend to take down what is already there (at least as of now), I've become increasingly unhappy with the way it operates. Far too many advertisements and "You might be interested in" posts. Too many "private" members. Some members who have gone down the "AI photo composing" rabbit hole. Their right, but after a little while, their artwork becomes boringly repetitive. And Instagram's annoying ways of attempting you to get more "screen time" and see more of their ads. by posting entries out of chronological order, six day old photos you've seen too many times before new content you might enjoy.
The final straw there was that several of my Instagram entries were taken down for supposed "trademark infringement" I've been around photography intellectual property policy for a long time, and trademark infringement can only occur for commercial use, like advertising or selling a product. So, goodbye Instagram, to see my new photos, keep an eye out here.
I realize I'm way behind in posting here, this batch is a year and 1/2 old. But, I'll try to catch up soon. Thank you.
Another set of photos that never made it to Instagram. I think because it mixed landscape and portrait orientations, an Instagram no-no. I think the shoes were new to me back then. I see I eventually wore them again and posted some Instagram photos, but then they got stashed away in a storage bin, for no good reason.
These Nike Stutter Step 2 sneakers are becoming broken in as the uppers are torn from the soles in places, but the soles themselves need help, as they show almost no wear.
Having dug them out of storage now in late 2024, I'm going to wear them more often.
