dress is really nice btw imo iirc

Hey, thanks! I love those heels but may have to find a shorter option. I'd be like 6'2" and unable to walk in those babies.

OK, why is it so hard to find a pair of black flats? that's all. simple, black, flats. not dowdy. not with stuff on them. oh, and size 11, which is always sold out everywhere if the shoes aren't ugly, apparently.

i'm worried they're a little cheap and will be v v uncomfortable.

I wish the thrice-damned shoe companies would just make the SAME STYLE year after year, so I could replace my old ones. I don't WANT new shoes, I want my old shoes again!!

Note: I am wearing flats with kneesocks today. Feel vaguely ridiculous.

I'd go on a hunt for you, daria, but I like shoes with buckles. Big gold buckles. Actually I'm thinking about stocking up on 3 pair of these:

Actually on that note, I just found EVERYTHING I want on 6pm.com. Does anyone have experience w them? They have shoes from last fall for about half price -- I feel like styles that are over 1 year old should be cheaper than 50% off? But this is my last chance to stock up on shoes that I wear out after 1-2 years of regular wear.

It's boot season again. Which Frye boots should I splurge on?

Virginia Plain, Tuesday, 20 October 2009 18:12 (fourteen years ago) link

At $400 a pair? Take your pick.

i need a normal shoe

how rad bandit (gbx), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 18:18 (fourteen years ago) link

i've got a pair of super comfy børn slip-ons i keep at school but i need a pair of darker brown laceup jobs for being normal and non sporty in

like god help me i might just go all in on the medical thing and get a pair of fucking danskos

Laurel <3 buckles:

When I opened this thread it temporarily stopped loading at this post and then it continued and at that moment the most recent post was this one and I did a total double take :-)

StanM, Tuesday, 20 October 2009 18:22 (fourteen years ago) link

I ordered a replacement pair last week and threw my old ones away; the sides were actually ripped through.

The silver buckles were out of stock, need a new supplier.

my bf works in a medical (psych) facility and wears danskos lol

tho i think the habit was formed by food service tbh

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Tuesday, 20 October 2009 19:09 (fourteen years ago) link

i realized i don't have any "adult" shoes... just purple floral print nike hightops, dirty white leather high-tops, red and white striped boat shoes with bells at the end of the laces, and pink and white striped plimsolls.... i think maybe time to get some...

phil-two, Friday, 23 October 2009 02:47 (fourteen years ago) link

i found a pair of flats (from ebay so they cost a LOT less than they would at apc, still imho absurdly overpriced because they're not that sturdy, which was a surprise, i have some apc boots that are great)

what kind of money? obama money! (daria-g), Friday, 23 October 2009 23:17 (fourteen years ago) link

i keep buying non-fashion shoes like running shoes or hiking boots, but i STILL need a new pair of plain black flats arghhhhhhhhh. as much as i love seattle i do not see myself purchasing any dansko clogs anytime soon. gah. daria, yours look nice! but i need something supportive.

StanM, Wednesday, 23 December 2009 18:47 (fourteen years ago) link

nice. i wonder if you can buy them on the internets. i love opening ceremony shoes.

kicker conspiracy (s. suisham ha ha) (daria-g), Wednesday, 23 December 2009 19:07 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah you can get them on the opening ceremony website... the sizes are weird tho...

phil-two, Wednesday, 23 December 2009 20:11 (fourteen years ago) link

i need new boots. considering some red wing iron rangers, or something similar.

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 31 December 2009 18:34 (fourteen years ago) link

ll bean apparently sells a very similar style for a good deal less than the red wings -- i've heard good things about red wings' durability but have never owned a pair. is the construction that good? like $100+ extra good?

elmo leonard (elmo argonaut), Thursday, 31 December 2009 18:44 (fourteen years ago) link

i could go for a pair of white's semi-dress boots but I would never be able to justify buying another pair of boots ever again.

http://www.sixwhitingstreet.co.uk/images/White-Enamel.jpg

jed_, Friday, 5 February 2010 17:11 (fourteen years ago) link

i love the way those look totally generic but refined at the same time.

jed_, Friday, 5 February 2010 17:12 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh WOW but then, I love old lady shoes. If the perforations on the front were slightly less flower petal-y, I'd run out and buy those myself.

Well, and if I had any money....
