vividly pretty shoes

Some years back, I noted the disparity between athletic shoes marketed towards men and women. The ones for women were mainly all-white, or white + pastel colors, or sometimes all-black, whereas the ones for men more often had vivid colors.

Now, vividly colored shoes are available for both men and women. There are still color differences - the women's shoes are more likely to contain pink, purple, salmon-orange, and turquoise colors, while the men's shoes are more likely to contain primary colors. But overall, I'm impressed at how many snazzy looking shoes are on sale!
