Running Errands is a Lifestyle
Let’s be real, the lifestyle sneaker category covers most of what we all wear on a day-to-day basis. So when you’re running around town with the family, shopping for gifts, going to dinners, and trying to sneak in time for yourself, these are the no-brainers next to the door that will keep you fashionable, and functional, no matter what kind of hectic surprises your holidays have in store. Nothing beats a classic for everyday wear, and as far as classics go, Nike Dunks, adidas Sambas Long Tongue, and the New Balance 740 are at the top of the list.
Cozy Fireside Lounge Mode
The holiday season is going to be the most time off from work you get all year, so get ready to kick off your sneakers and slip into some fuzzy slippers. Thanksgiving to New Year's is the busiest time of the year for the living room couch, and you'd better be equipped for the long haul. Whether you’re firing up a yuletide log in the fireplace or just putting the five-hour fireplace loop on the TV, the Nuptse Mule is a North Face jacket for your feet, and the UGG Tasman II or Birkenstock Boston Shearling wrap your feet in blankets of snuggly fuzz.
Starting New Year’s Resolutions Early
It’s never too early to get started on those New Year’s resolutions. Now is the perfect time to reshape your workout routine, so get ready to dress for success. Nike’s running line is expansive, and the Vomero Plus and Pegasus Premium both provide performance construction meant to help push every stride, no matter how much you’d rather be back inside arguing with your least favorite uncle over another slice of pie.
Annual Family Photoshoot Fresh
Sneakers make an excellent holiday gift for the kids in your life, but with so much family in town and photo opportunities, it might make sense to hook the kids up with one gift a little early. For a perfect matching holiday card picture, Nike Dunks and adidas Sambas make for a great mini-me shoe, and these days, kids' colorways are just as fresh, if not more so, than the adult pairs.
Pre and Post Game Scores
From the family football game before Thanksgiving Dinner to the NBA’s Christmas Day takeover and the bowl game bonanza on New Year’s Day, the holiday season is the best time of the year for sports. From a fresh monochrome grey Nike Dunk that matches every team’s alternate jersey to a Nike Rejuven8 slip-on, make sure you’re prepared for the game and the post-game recovery.
The busiest time of the year is just getting started, but with the right shoes on and under the tree, the holiday season will be a slice of pumpkin pie. Check out DICK'S Sporting Goods to make sure the whole family is ready to end the year on the right foot.
