 Favorite Shoe: For my creator highlight I decided to switch it up from sneakers and post about one of my favorite and most versatile pair of shoes, my Dr. Martens boots. These shoes have grown so much popularity and I think it's because of various different reasons. One of the reasons being that you can wear these boots with almost any kind of outfit, I've worn them with shorts, jeans, leggings, etc. You can dress them up and wear them with a cute sundress or dress them down and wear them with a pair of joggers. I also love them because I can wear them in any type of weather: hot weather, rainy weather even snowy weather! I've grown to see that many people across campus have these boots or different versions of them. I've been seeing the platform version of these boots which I've grown to love and am considering purchasing them. I've realized that ever since Kicks of Cuse started, I've been looking down at people's feet more often and checking out what shoes they're wearing. I never was a really big shoe person, I like them and shopped for them but I never was really hooked onto seeing what new shoes were coming out or what shoes were popular but Kicks of Cuse started in interest in shoes for me. I love seeing what people around campus are wearing and the reason why they are wearing those shoes. To say the least, I more frequently now shop online looking for new sneakers or shoes to buy.

Name: Katherine Alnwick Year: Junior Major: Information Management & Technology Hometown: Long Island, NY Hobbies: Running, Cooking, Shopping, Yoga Favorite Sneaker: If you know me, you know I'm not 'put together'. I'm always running back and forth getting things done and always seem like a mess. Not that I'm a slob, but I only wear jeans and cute outfits for the occasions - if I can wear comfy clothes, trust me, I sure am. That being said, a huge staple for me has been my shoes. Since I don't focus so much on dressing up and perfecting my outfit, I revert my attention to my shoes. I'm pretty basic about them, I only really wear white ones - simple. I love white sneakers because I think they look clean and sharp and regardless of what you're wearing, they match and pull together your whole outfit. I've bought so many different sneakers and even try to get myself out of this habit by buying colorful shoes, but they always end up finding...

Name: Paige Wucherpfennig Year: Junior Major: Information Management & Technologies Hometown: West Hartford, CT Hobbies: Dance, running, sneaker shopping Favorite Sneaker: I have never been much of a girly girl. From a very young age, I have preferred sneakers and comfy clothes over jewelry and handbags. In middle school, I began to express myself by the shoes I wore. I wanted to stand out and be different from what everyone else was wearing. I never fell into the hole of buying a pair of shoes just because everyone else had them. I rocked hot pink DC's and the original Adidas Tubular sneakers. Since then, I have become quite the sneaker collector. I have over 30 pairs, which makes it extremely difficult to pick a favorite. However, if I absolutely had to pick I would say my Off-White Converse Chucks. These shoes were given to me by a very special person, making them that much more meaningful to myself. I also love the way Virgil, CEO of Off-White, brings his archite...

About Us

Image
From sneaker heads to hype beasts, young adults are crazy over copping the newest sneaker drops coming from brands and collaborations such as Nike, Adidas, Air Jordan, Yeezys and Off-White. Our goal for Kicks of Cuse is to better represent this sneaker community on campus. Kicks of Cuse works like this; we will ask our friends and random students on campus to photograph their shoes and provide a short snippet about why they wear the shoes they do.  This will give us insight into the student's life, interests and personality. Taste of shoes can vary drastically, as we want students to get to know one another by the shoes on their feet. Each photo and quote that we take is posted to our Instagram, @KicksOfCuse so our followers can get to know one another by 'walking a day in their shoes'. Although Kicks of Cuse is based out of Syracuse University, we hope to gain more traction, and in the near future spread Kicks of Cuse to different college campuses.
