I never wear heels because I hate being uncomfy, but I was surprised at how these didn't hurt my feet!neffbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17038036160241345668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370970170301288861.post-74981652892836794182011-01-07T10:27:43.979-08:002011-01-07T10:27:43.979-08:00I haven't had change to brake them in yet! *s...I haven't had change to brake them in yet! *sigh* its been a suckie week.Shelleyjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05223944949880318245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370970170301288861.post-79816803302666674972011-01-06T13:36:54.203-08:002011-01-06T13:36:54.203-08:00How did breaking in the shoes go?

I'm wearing my Dansko boots right now and I can't believe I survived a dozen winters without them - what was I thinking!?! I am frugal with most of my wardrobe, and I don't think I'm taking up cobbling any time soon, so better shoes it is.<br /><br />I love 6pm.com (the Zappos clearance site). They have some reduced services (nothing I can't handle) in exchange for GREAT clearance prices. <br /><br />My mom used to patch her canvas sneaks as a kid. If you still love your Bass shoes, and the insoles/outsoles are holding up, and you are so inclined, I think they would look awesome with some new canvas on the toe section. Maybe red and white striped ticking, or floral print?Maurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08842561589741133873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370970170301288861.post-92034083553900248552011-01-05T03:58:59.750-08:002011-01-05T03:58:59.750-08:00I believe in spending that extra bit of money on o...I believe in spending that extra bit of money on one's feet. Same as you, whenever I buy cheap shoes, I end up never wearing them because they hurt my feet after 5mins and I'm not prepared to destroy my feet while breaking them in. I recently handed over my lovely new aqua Converse to my daughter (who age 10 has the same US sz 11 feet as me!) so I'm in the market for a replacement. Those top ones are fab AND they have arch support (the arch in one of my feet having given up on me a couple of years ago). I'll have to see whether it's possible to find them in the UK (if only Amazon.com would ship shoes internationally... they do books, DVDs, and CDs, why not shoes?).Nathaliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570545194570856281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370970170301288861.post-52044538093532867182011-01-04T09:08:13.373-08:002011-01-04T09:08:13.373-08:00Cute tennies!

I doubt they'd meet your comfort/quality standards, but they're real cute.<br /><br />If the owner's there when you go to Re-Mix, he might give you a discount if you pay cash...he's offered to that to me before. He's an odd dude, but obviously cares about his craft. One thing - the padding in the Re-Mix heels doesn't last, so you might need to add insoles. (The wedges seem better with padding.)Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05506540731006921244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370970170301288861.post-72026579346291949282011-01-04T08:29:04.040-08:002011-01-04T08:29:04.040-08:00Shoes. yea.

It is hard to find shoes, like bras, that fit well. i generally don't have good luck with cheap shoes or mail order shoes but I would rather spend the money on a well made pair of shoes and maintain them. I'm not even going to tell you how jealous I am that you live near the Re-mix showroom. I have my heart set on a pair of red sandals for the summer and the Kilties. Whoa, the Kilties. I haven't been able to decide on a pair of saddle shoes since I was 5, we have a love hate relationship. Good luck and talley ho on the shoe adventure! Can't wait to see how it goes!amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08482124350320781550noreply@blogger.com
