All my shoes are old or old and beat up. Or completely unserviceable.
My wife wanted to hit the mall yesterday, so we went- and we were cruising through Boston Store and my wife told me to check out some shoes. Browsing the clearance rack I came across these:
It's interesting wearing shoes that aren't boots, and don't have the heel corners all worn down. I've been very happy for the past day!

They are expensive but last forever. I have a pair that I've worked a year straight in a kitchen as well as live my life in and they are still going strong. http://www.dansko.com/flash.aspx#det...apled%20Clog,1
Seriously, last pair of shoes I'll need to buy for the rest of my life. |

They were pricey, they were on sale and on clearance on top of the sale price- otherwist they would have been too pricey for me.
There was a set of boots that were very similarly styled (the same shoe but a little over the ankles), but not on sale or on clearance. I didn't see them on the website.

However, I'm under no illusions about them being actually "serviceable." At this point, they're lawn mowing shoes only.

Next time I apply for a job, I'm putting that award on my resume.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Kansas City | | | Last year I went out and spent a lot of money on a pair of nice New Balance running shoes. They are exceptionally comfortable and I wore them quite a bit until my cat pissed in them a couple weeks ago.
My other pair of shoes is some Doc Martens that I won in a contest sponsored by Soul Coughing back in 1997 or so. They've served me well, but recently they got a crack in the sole without me realizing it. I was up in Omaha this weekend and every time I stepped in snow my left foot got wet.
All I have left is sandals, so this thread is timely. Thanks! |
