Spotted In The Wild – Stokke Xplory

New York City, Upper East Side:  If you’re looking for the greatest number of Xplorys per square mile, the Upper East Side is your kind of geography. It’s one of few places where you can count on seeing a least a couple of Xplorys on any given day.  This one’s quieter than most, a tasteful black instead of something-vibrant-else:

It’s difficult to see in this photo, but that grey insert is mesh.  There’s air flow inside the hood on this warm summer day.

Last year I was treated to the amazing sight of matching beige Xplorys, seats right up high facing the papas who were pushing them, strolling side-by-side in Soho.  I didn’t get a good shot – those guys were men on a mission, moving with lightening lightning speed through the crowded sidewalks.  (Successfully, too, I might add – who’s going to argue with tandem fast moving Xplorys?)  It was a truly impressive sight.

  • Effective mass increases with velocity, so technically it’s not possible to move with lightening speed. Unless you’ve got wings, then lift will do the trick.

    Surely you meant lightning speed.

  • Why, so I did! (Gulp.) Thanks! I’ll be correcting the error with . . . well, as quickly as possible.
