KangaROOS
292 Newbury Street, at Gloucester; Back Bay; 617.391.0035
There's something oddly comforting about remembering your
childhood: baseball in the park, building forts in the
woods, walking in on mom and dad recklessly "dancing" in the
bedroom. Relive your childhood sans trauma at KangaROOS,
open now.
Founded in 1979 as a shoe w/a pocket and reborn two years
ago when a Woburn-based company bought the license to
distribute the kangaroo'd classics, this inaugural American
store stocks the full line of basketball, vintage, and new
kicks in a dark beige-walled two room space w/ a faux
fireplace, and a life-size color cut-out of ROOS first
professional sports endorsee, Walter "Sweetness" Payton, who
was known for his quick moves and prescient knowledge that
80s brands would be so hot right now! Athletic kicks include
100 pairs of the Sweetness Hi, a white leather high top w/
Bears black/jaffa orange-colored Kangaroo logo on the side,
No. "34" stamped on the back/tongue, and the word
"Sweetness" across the top; the black suede Trap Lo w/ white
sole and red stitching; and the white/black/red apple
original Skywalker hi top, which features a soft canvas
upper, Velcro ankle strap, and brand-defining hidden pocket,
as well as the tendency to incessantly whine at robots. ROOS
also sells vintage/re-jiggered kicks like the New Classic
42, a coriander/bungee/wood ash retro jogger w/ a padded
tongue that conceals an extra pocket, and wavy-ridged
outsole; the heritage-style red nylon/leather Combat with
and an embroidered hook-and-loop pocket on the side; and the
dark gray/olive/black classic jogging shoe reworked w/ a
removable padded insole, and zipper side pocket called the
Magnum -- which you, like, had to buy because all the other
shoes you've used in the past are just way too tight.
The store also stocks apparel like a Payton tee that sports
a uniformed image of Walter running over the block-lettered
"Sweetness", and a white kangaroo logos anniversary number
that reads, "30 Years: Still Kickin' It" also the title of
your dad's inappropriate anniversary dinner speech, right
before they went home to "watch a movie".
Combine this with My Little Ponies and you're sitting
pretty! Roo in all the kicks at http://themove.thrillist.com/link.php?M=2181171&N=58089&C=25f0fb7663659a52572fbc99fe5fd818&L=50593
