A cultural history of sneakers, tracing the footprint of one of our most iconic fashions across sports, business, pop culture, and American identity When the athletic shoe graduated from the beaches and croquet courts of the wealthy elite to streetwear ubiquity, its journey through the heart of American life was just getting started. In this rollicking narrative, Nicholas K. Smith carries us through the long twentieth century as sneakers became the totem of subcultures from California skateboarders to New York rappers, the cause of gang violence and riots, the heart of a global economic controversy, the lynchpin in a quest to turn big sports into big business, and the muse of high fashion. Studded with larger-than-life mavericks and unexpected visionaries--from genius rubber inventor, Charles Goodyear, to road-warrior huckster Chuck Taylor, to the feuding brothers who founded Adidas and Puma, to the track coach who changed the sport by pouring rubber in his wife's waffle iron--Kicks introduces us to the sneaker's surprisingly influential, enduring, and evolving legacy.Binding Type: Paperback

Fresh, Creamy, and Perfectly Ripened!
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
These Hass avocados were excellent quality and arrived fresh with great texture and flavor. They ripened evenly, had creamy smooth insides, and no brown spots or stringy texture like you sometimes get with other avocados.
Perfect for avocado toast, guacamole, salads, or just slicing onto sandwiches. The size was great, and they stayed fresh for several days after ripening. Definitely one of the better avocado purchases I’ve made — I’ll be buying these again!

Fresh, good size, and reliable for same-day orders
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
Good quality avocado, exactly what you expect when ordering one
✔️ Arrived as the correct size and weight
✔️ Not bruised or overripe
✔️ Fresh and ready to use
✔️ Good add-on for same-day delivery
✔️ No issues with quality
✔️Slightly cheaper than my local supermarket
I ordered a single avocado and it came exactly as expected in both size and weight.
It wasn’t bruised or rotten, which is always a concern when ordering produce that someone else picks for you. It was in good condition and ready to use.
This is a good option if you’re running low and want to add one to a same-day delivery order without having to go to the store.

Good choice.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I was really surprised... I was worried I'd get too ripe or super not ready avocados ordering from amazon but these turned out great. Good quality, acceptable size, no bruising, tasted great with a little olive oil and salt. Would get again!

Perfect
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
Smaller than anticipated but perfect size for 1 person. Will buy again! Loved that they put 3 frozen bottled water in the bottom of an insulated bag to keep them fresh since I wasn't home when they were delivered. @68 cents a piece, the value for the money = 100%. Borderline ripe but perfect to use today or in a few days.

Didn’t ripen well for me.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I bought these avocados while they were still very green, hoping they would ripen at home. Unfortunately, when they did soften, the inside had dark spots and didn’t look fresh. The texture wasn’t what I expected either.
I’m not sure if it was just this batch, but the ripening process didn’t turn out well for me.
