Three pairs of Atoms Water-Repellent Model 000 shoes arrived before Christmas, and I finally got the chance to open the packages.
- Clove Green
- Mulberry Red
- Retro Blue
The Clove Green pair look just like that Model 001, except better. I like Model 000 better than its successor.
It had been raining around Christmas Day, but I haven’t had a chance to wear any of these Water-Repellent shoes. The “good news” is that it would be raining again around New Year’s Day. At least that’s what the weather forecast said. I’ll be wearing one of these pairs then and see how “Water-Repellent” these shoes are.
In no way this post is sponsored by Atoms. I paid for all these three pairs of shoes in full price.
Why?
That’s because I love these shoes, and Atoms has been my primary brand of shoes since 2019.
I have purchased a few pairs of Model 001 and worn them extensively; in the end I prefer Model 000 better.
Model 000 has the simplicity of design language that I love. Model 001 deviates a bit from this design. Then there’s the other model that totally doesn’t speak the same design language, and should have not been called as Atoms shoes.
