I don't know :dontknow: , maybe these funky lookin' shoes (MBT's) are the best thing since sliced bread but frankly I think they are "butt ugly"!!! Don't get me wrong... I am the maven of "sensible shoes". For cryin' out loud I wear steel toed boots for work which I swear weigh five pounds a piece. :realmad:
On the other hand it's not uncommon for me to hear, "Wow! where'd you get those shoes." referring to my fabulous Pepto Bismol Pink slip-on athletic ankle boots; (I can't really tell whether that means the person commenting loves them or hates them, lol.) :yikes:
Often I wear my standard black Penny Loafers. I've worn Penny Loafers since I was 11 years old, (I'm 55 now), the first pair were hand-me-downs from my mother. They were brown (with oxblood highlights) and a beef roll. My first brand new pair were Bass Weejuns; I got a new pair of Weejuns at the beginning of each successive school year until I was a College Sophomore when platforms came into style so then I had platform Penny Loafers then Penny Loafer style clogs. Well you get the gist. At any given time you can find several pairs of loafers, Top Siders, (thinly veiled relaxed versions of loafers), in addition to the, "What did we ever do before these?!?!?!?! Crocs that is, in my closet.
Ever since I discovered Crocs I hardly buy shoes anymore except Crocs in a different color or clunky steel/composite toe work boots. Even my Flip Flops are Crocs lol.
Well all this because of those UGLY MBT's lol
P.S. Quote my mother re. Crocs, "You're still wearing those ugly shoes!?!?!?!" 1rnfl And yes I've worn Roots, Earth Shoes and those other "ugly" things Birkenstocks.... think I still have a brand new pair of Birks around somewhere. Think I'll let them go in the great "I'm moving to TV" yard sale.
