haha, i think my main problem with shoes video is that it is not a kids in the hall sketch, not even a failed kids in the hall sketch, whatever it was sort of funny the first time i guess. no not really.
― rrrobyn, Friday, 11 July 2008 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link
wait is this the kith sketch where bruce goes "i sell shoes!" and then kevin as satan goes "and so you always shall!"
if so then yeah, kind of funny a little bit but nothing spectacular.

I have become an adult! I went to the summer sales and picked up these bad boys. Then I panicked and spent over a hundred euro on Diesel trainers because I am a child trapped in a man's basement body

haha no, the 'shoes video' is this 'youtube phenomenon' that this la guy did ages ago where he plays a girl with a blond wig who loves shoes yaay and there is sort of a song. and shoes.
my favourite kith sketch related to shoes is the one where scott walks into a shoe store dressed in a trenchcoat and dave is the shoe salesman who has learned several english phrases phonetically but doesn't actually understand english. scott says 'just got feet don't got shoes' and beats dave up. it is pretty genius.

― rrrobyn, Sunday, 27 July 2008 06:30 (fifteen years ago) link
Does anyone have a pair of Toms shoes? I want to get a pair to wear to work (so I don't have to take off my socks in the office when I change into heels) and I really don't want to walk in to work wearing flip flops like most girls seem to do in the morning. I need a pair of slip ons that are comfortable to wear without socks and will be able to contain my wide ass feet.

― bell_labs, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:06 (fifteen years ago) link
Hmm. First response: Love the cut-out sides and the warmth of the caramel color (even though usu not a fan of brown), but I'm iffy on the metal...things.

― tehresa, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:15 (fifteen years ago) link
i'm with laurel. the metal bits ruin it for me. but more importantly... do you like the shoes?
― lauren, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:18 (fifteen years ago) link
i don't know, i feel the same about the metal parts. i just need something that color.
― bell_labs, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:22 (fifteen years ago) link
Do you really need brown? I used to try and match brown things in my wardrobe with brown shoes but it's SO HARD to have things in the right shade of brown, because there are #infinity different possibilities. I gave up and started wearing brown clothes with colored shoes, ie cream, yellow, blue, etc.
― Laurel, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:35 (fifteen years ago) link
Oooh or metallics: I have 3-4 different pairs of shoes in silver, bronze, etc.
― Laurel, Friday, 8 August 2008 15:36 (fifteen years ago) link
I'm soon going to need this thread's help to reconcile my need for good solid dress shoes with my compulsion to get shoes with lots of details on them. (Answer = wingtips, I think?)

Haha probably because I already have two pairs basically like that

nabisco those shoes are great. i want a pair myself! what kind are they? i don't suppose they have women's shoes in that style?

why impractical? if they were 4" heels you couldn't walk in, that is a different story, but, a pair of flashy sneakers that are stylish and well made..
i like them

i doubt i'll ever be rich enough for $700 boots! gah i can't even imagine.
― bell_labs, Monday, 11 August 2008 17:52 (fifteen years ago) link
yeah me either.. you know, probably if i cut back on randomly buying fast fashion i could afford $700 boots..

I just got these and they are awesome to look at and wicked comfortable, also the first pair of non boots I have bought in years (sorry, no pic only link)

It is totally awesome, I could have bought half the store. I have visited there a few times over the last year and finally taken the plunge. I did not expect them to be so comfortable either. I would love a pair of the Spats boots but will have to wait a while before I can afford them.

Have you tried anything yet?
― Laurel, Tuesday, 12 August 2008 13:23 (fifteen years ago) link
there is this stuff you can buy at some shoe stores that's in a bottle with a sort of brush at the top - you squeeze it out into the footbed or whatever the part of the shoe that your foot is on is called - it's a citrus thing - works really well! of course i can't find it online (i bought it at aldo for use in sandals but works with other shoes too obv).
maybe something like this: http://chasports.com/products/shoe_care/shoe_disinfectant.php also maybe this: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0NAH/is_7_33/ai_107637370

confession: i have a big callous on the bottom of both of my feet, right on the ball of my feet. i can hold a flame to it for 5 seconds and i can't feel a fucking thing. haven't tried that yet but i believe it to be true. recently, i realized i have the callouses because i have holes in both soles of my pair of IRL shoes. i tend to use things until they break, and this really got reinforced during coronavirus.
i'm a fuckin mess
here's my question: does anyone have any recommendations for walking around shoes that don't feature large advertisements for the shoe company on them? for example, imagine the perfect shoe, whatever that means, but "SHOE CO." is printed on the back. disqualified. also disqualified: anything that looks like a modern athletic shoe. no. nothing like that. i just want a comfortable shoe that isn't an advertisement and doesn't look like an 8-year-old inherited the design division of a shoe company.
