As a guy, I have to confess that I don't get the female fascination with shoes. Perhaps it is because I seldom gaze longingly upon a woman's foot. This is also true about women's nails, but this isn't about that.
I get it a little bit more now because I was quite chuffed to score this pair ↓ more than two years ago. You probably won't recall this, but Sue also bought me a hat with orange, and I subsequently picked up a Tee or two. And yeah, I found myself liking to wear those outfits.
These ↓ are the shoes: certainly less than pristine after wearing them quite a lit.
They are from Merrell, a company that specializes more in walking shoes and boots rather than athletic footwear. In reality, for me at least, I suppose they are more or less casual shoes to wear around and about.
Due to my compromised right foot, I do wear that heel down, so I began to keep an eye on Merrell emails. One day I spotted these ↓ at half price.
I must check these shoes out ... Mr Man's #1 complaint about why he won't go for walks with me, is he hasn't got an comfortable shoes. I do like your new pair, I think of them as the "Joseph of many colours" shoes.
ReplyDeletePretty snazzy sneakers so no wonder you have received so many comments, AC.
ReplyDeleteYou sneakers of many colours are eye catching!
ReplyDeleteThey are adorable. I can see why people commented on them. :-)
ReplyDeleteI would say Canadians think multi-colored shoes are a bit "way out there." Just a guess. And here you thought you were just walking around in comfort! Welcome to the wild side!
ReplyDeleteThey are both amazing shoes and I would have complimented you if I'd seen either pair!
ReplyDeleteFun shoes! As the female owner of only a couple of pairs of shoes, black, not being interested, I agree that I don't get the fascination of some women with shoes.
ReplyDeleteLike Joseph's coat of many colors you have the shoe variety.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the old orange shoes. But, hey, as long as the shoes are comfortable, that's what counts.
ReplyDeleteI lie them both but the news ones the best.
ReplyDeleteI have all of four sets of footwear: cowboy boots I never wear, one pair of everyday shoes, one pair of hiking shoes, and winter boots.
ReplyDeleteI had a pair very similar, from New Balance. They were close to $200; they were made in USA and celebrated their birthday. Never had them since. I wore out the first pair.
ReplyDeleteYep, those ARE colorful shoes...very practical: "can wear them with any color of clothes." You must get to tapping your toes with Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors" song. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteThe white lace on the orange makes the difference.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if they make these for women. I love the bright colors and I would wear them every day!
ReplyDeleteThey truly are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThey are very colorful! My Keens are boring.
ReplyDeleteThe shoes are colourful but a little worn out lol
ReplyDeleteHandsome. Well worth a comment. Shoe envy here.
ReplyDeleteI've always liked Merrell shoes. And I do like the blue/orange one best too. :-)
