Papa Bear approves CREATIVE RECREATION

I've been seeing a lot more people sporting Creative Recreation. I first was quite amused by the way the styles looked as they seem to be a hybrid of sneakers and dress shoes --- and then it got me to think, maybe I can wear them to work?

Went around the mall and lo and behold, Shoe Salon carries them! I completely forgot what they called this style but I WANT!

Checked out their Facebook page and this is the information that I got about what Creative Recreation was all about

Creative Recreation was officially launched in Orange County, California in Fall 2002. The founders of Creative Recreation noticed a huge void in the footwear market. Everyone was offering either dress shoes to be worn with a suit or athletic inspired sneakers that were not acceptable at most functions. No one was offering footwear to young professionals with style. Two long time friends got together and decided they would be the ones to change the game.

"Many people have difficulties understanding what category Creative Recreation footwear falls into. That has been the best compliment to the founders. We don't want to be put into any category, we're a footwear company! We make shoes for our lifestyle, rather we make shoes for life with style.

GENO-Primary Blue and Electric Green

I also found info on one of their newest styles - THE GENO. (Sort of brings back that UAAP Ateneo vs. La Salle feel doesn't it?)

If I had a little extra, I'll be getting the BLUE one! It boasts of ballistic canvas with pops of patent and satin lining.

They're all available in Shoe Salon, Rustans and COMPLEX Lifestyle Store.
