Kamala Harrisis a woman of firsts.
She’s also got another first under her belt, and it’s as intentional as it is refreshing.
She is the first prominent candidate to wear sneakers while campaigning (viaThe Guardian)!
Just think about the Oscars' red carpet.
The same thing happens on the political stage.
Remember whenMichelle Obamadared to show off her bare arms in a dress (viaABC News)?
Or how aboutHillary Clinton’s choice to don a pantsuit for her official White House portrait (viaCNN)?
Sadly, these were major scandals at one time.
Now, Harris is sending a message to America with her kicks and we are here for it!
The sneaker has a storied past that makes them perfect for the message of her campaign.
Historically, Converse low tops were the shoes of rebels like James Dean and Curt Kobain.
These were figures who demanded that their work and artistry speak rather than their appearance.
Not only that, but they are unisex in design and appearance.
They suggest Harris “is a woman of action.”
If Hillary had #pantsuitnation, Harris should get #ConverseCountry.
