Shoes...aren't they about apparel?
Excuse a foray into shoes. I mean what good is sewing our nifty wearing apparel if we don't have fashionable shoes as well? I have been strictly tire-tread clogs for so long now. And one pair of dressy shoes for emergencies. This past weekend I happened into the Danform shoe store near me, and these babies actually fit my feet. Lovely brown tone, nice studs, great heel; they are from Ecco shoes. Nothing usually does fit, it's a width situation. And then, lo and behold two more pair fit? Could I leave two pairs that fit there and only buy one? No. I could not. So I bought the red pair here only in a dark tobacco brown, and they are Børn shoes. So comfy, all padded inside, just the hint of a back on them, and good for a bit less casual working shoe than my usual clogs with the no-nonsense sole. I've worn each pair now for a whole day, still the feet are fine. Happy happy...joy joy. Then there's that third pair...but they were felt clogs...must not...must not...
You should have bought the third pair.. and you know that now..
