... my Puma Shoes

I I would like to introduce my Puma shoes today. ^_^

I bought them in China last July, they were new products at that time, around $75.

Mine is the series called "梅兰竹菊".

It means 'Plum blossom. Orchid. Bamboo. Chrysanthemum'.

In China, we call them 'Noblemen 4' coz they have meaning for personality.

So...Let me show you guys some pictures of this series!

'Plum blossom' stands for 'Nobleness'

'Orchid' stands for 'Pure'

'Bamboo' stands for 'Integrity'





and 'Chrysanthemum' stands for 'Plain'.

Usually people use “梅、兰、竹、菊” as metaphors in ancient Chinese poems.

There are two ingenious ideas shown on the shoes.
One is there's a flower's logo on the back of the shoes (as shown above).
Another one is there's an ancient Chinese poem on the insole with the flower you choose.
