Kicks at Bloomingdales

Gee Why Passion ala moana, bloomingdales, ewa wing, kicks, shoes, sneakers

So the froyo at Bloomingdales was good with some service issues, but what about the kicks collection at Bloomies? Not bad, not bad at all. Besides the usual array of cross trainers, there were some interesting pieces to admire.

The pinnacle had to be the classic Air Max 95 in neon. I didn’t check, but these have to be the July retro OG.

These 574 Outside In look cool.

But I prefer these 710 Outdoors instead.

These 1550 REVlite have a Roshe toebox look to them.

In the children’s section, there were a few kicks. I liked this New Balance 574 Fresh Foams.

So the lesson here is don’t discount Bloomingdales for some interesting kicks pickups.

Froyo from Forty Carrots

Gee Why Life, Passion ala moana, ewa wing, food, froyo, hawaii

Went to Forty Carrots in Bloomingdales to try out their frozen yogurt. The froyo was good, especially the strawberry, but there’s a few kinks in service that need to be worked out. We wanted to split a large size between kids which was said not to be a problem by the cashier. They’d even split it for us. Great! Then another employee makes the froyo… in a single cup. I guess he didn’t hear or understand what was just discussed. The cashier apologizes but then several employees congregate to discuss something assumedly with our large froyo split into smaller sizes.

After some confusion, our large is finally split. Sadly, the original large in single cup wasn’t offered up as an apology. The workers took it to the kitchen to dump or to eat. Not sure. What I am sure about is if they gave us this “mistake,” I’d have positively glowing remarks to make about Forty Carrots in Bloomingdales. Instead, I’m telling people the froyo is good. Here’s my Yelp review.

Oh, the also sell water in boxes, not plastic bottles.

And their food inspection placard is very nicely framed.
