Soles (sōls), n., pl., Chaussures. Zapotos. Giày thể thao. 運動鞋. 运动鞋. スニーカー. Патике. Tenisice...but just shoes? 

Nah, never. 

Soles isn’t the first, or the last story about sneaker-enthused individuals—sneakerheads. It isn’t even just about shoes. Soles, kinda, a little bit, is like life.  

Life? 

Yeah, life...the life of Walter Cruz, a Ph.D. student who isn’t right without his running shoes. A way of life—common to the sneakerhead—which brings the unthinkable: a chance encounter with an unattainable girl. Making his best attempt count, Cruz inches closer—this girl is definitely way more than her shoes—and falls hard. From there, class, the street, and the old, leave influences abound as all test this unique, Canadian. Wise sages to M.D.s speak their peace, and friends—friends—try to sway Cruz from her, Brooklyn Knight, the un-gettable girl.          

Pressured by this opposing World, Walter Cruz faces harder kicks and nastier sputters as he must decide if he should give in, and deafen his own soul, or keep fighting the quo to hear the patter of his and her soles.

This isn’t the first or the last story about a guy chasing a girl...but, Soles might be the realest.
