Alright, alright, let’s talk about this… uh… Drake fella and his shoe thingy, the “Nocta Glide,” whatever that means. Sounds fancy, but I’ll tell ya, back in my day, shoes were just shoes, kept your feet dry and outta the mud. But these young folks, they like their stuff all special, I guess.
So, this Drake fella, he’s a singer, from Canada, you know, up north where it’s cold. He sings and makes these shoes with Nike, big company, makes all sorts of things. This “Nocta” thing, they say it’s named after how he works at night, like an owl or somethin’. Nocturnal somethin’-somethin’, they call it. Kids these days, always makin’ up new words.
- This shoe, the Nocta Glide, it’s got black and white colors.
- The bottom part, the sole, they say it’s made of rubber. Good for keepin’ you from slippin’, I reckon.
- They say it’s good for any weather, rain or shine. That’s good, I guess, saves you from buyin’ different shoes for everythin’.
My old shoes, they were tough. Lasted forever, practically. These new ones, with all their fancy names and whatnot, I don’t know if they’d hold up on the farm. But Drake, he’s a big deal, they say. People listen to his songs, buy his shoes. He’s got that “influence,” like the TV tells ya.
And this Niko fella, he’s Drake’s friend, taught him about fishin’ with them fancy fly rods. Not like the fishin’ we did, with a cane pole and worms. These city folks, they do things different. But I guess fishin’ is fishin’, no matter how you do it.
They say the shoe has somethin’ called “reflective pipin’.” I guess that means it shines in the dark, so you don’t get run over by a car at night. City folks gotta worry about that, I suppose. Out here, the only thing shinin’ at night is the moon.
Now, the shoe, it’s got a “breathable textile upper.” What in tarnation does that even mean? Sounds like a bunch of hooey to me. Back in my day, shoes were leather, or maybe canvas if it was hot. Breathable? Your feet sweated, that’s just how it was. But I guess these young folks don’t like sweaty feet. They want their feet to be all fancy and…breathable.
This “Nocta Glide,” they say it’s the other shoe from the “Noctor” brand. See, they can’t even keep the name straight! Nocta, Noctor…makes an old lady’s head spin. But I guess it’s all part of the style, the… “fashion,” they call it. Always changing, always something new.
Drake, he’s a big star, they say. Makes music, makes shoes, makes all sorts of things. He’s got that “iconic status.” That means people look up to him, copy him, buy what he sells. He’s got the “gear,” they say. And I guess this Nocta Glide is part of that gear.
I tell ya, this world is changin’ fast. Shoes with fancy names, singers makin’ clothes, fishin’ with fancy rods…it’s all a bit much for an old lady like me. But I guess that’s just how it is. Times change, people change, and shoes…well, they change too. From keepin’ your feet outta the mud to keepin’ you lookin’ “stylish.” Who knew?
So, if you’re lookin’ for a shoe that’s… “breathable” and “reflective” and made by a singer from Canada, I guess this Drake’s Nocta Glide is the shoe for you. Me? I’ll stick with my old boots. They ain’t fancy, but they get the job done. And that’s all that matters, right? Gettin’ the job done, and keepin’ your feet on the ground. No need for all that fancy talk and city slicker shoes.
