TunefulGal says "I need a beeper on my Birkies." about Birkenstock Florida, Arizona, Zurich, clogs

TunefulGal — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 05:40:52 GMT

     I have been finding and losing Birkies with all kinds of geographical names for over 20 years.
     I slip them off when I sit down then have to go on a hunt when I leave the house. Sometimes I find one left, purple suede Arizona (very comfortable) and one right, birkiflor Florida. (Why don't I throw those plastic-y birkiflors out? Their slippery imitation-of-leather tops makes my feet perspire).
     Sometimes I find a tan leather Arizona (had to break those in) and a dark leather Zurich (had to trim a tad around one foot bone with the kitchen scissors) or a flip-flop (can't remember its location name) which has less support.
     My mother is gone, but my foot doctor says I have her feet. Go figure! "Rich girl" feet with narrow heels that walk out of flats and a Morton's toe (longer second toe) that likes to stand up and try to escape closed-toe shoes.
     In the 1970s, German-made Birkenstock shoes made a social statement. Today, the only statement......

eatiller says "The shoes that fit me best" about Nike sneakers

eatiller — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 15:22:36 GMT

I've been wearing Nike shoes since I can remember. They are a reliable shoe that gives me the best support. I have the pleasure of having smaller feet so I'm able to not only wear the adult shoes, but every now and then I find myself in the kids section and may snag a pair of those. My daughter is now 10 months old and one of her 1st pair of booties were a pair of Nikes. They were warm and kept her happy. I can't wait for her to start walking. Before she was born I bought her a gift pack that had a pair of black and gold high tops with a winter hat. She's already wearig the hat and I'm so excited to get her in the shoes! We are a Nike family through and through. It's hard to switch brands after so many years. I see us both wearing Nikes as long as we can. They have shoes that will fit your age -- no matter what. They are priced well and when I'm in an area that has the Nike Outlet, I'm sure to stock up. It's a great product and I make sure to tell my friends that Nike fits me best and I......

Mickey527 says "my feet felt great!" about Curves Sneakers

Mickey527 — Sat, 15 Nov 2008 23:03:40 GMT

I have fibromyalgia and arthritis. Walking has become more difficult since these diagnosis, but I keep trying.

Last week I went to Walt Disney World in Florida with my family and dreaded the walking that I would have to do since here in cold Ct my symptoms have been getting worse and the pain is increasing.

I ordered the Curves Leg Toning rocker sneaker and put them on the first day at Disney.

I never felt so good, these shoes worked miracles. I was able to walk all day without any pain and even stayed at the park one night when they were open until 2 am.

The following week I went to the beach for a few days and walked barefoot on the beach. My fibromyalgia pain was intense. So intense that I had to take a Percocet.

When I got back to the hotel I put on my Curves sneakers and didn't have the pain for the rest of the day. I wore my sneakers every day after that and only took them off when I went into the water.

I can't say they toned my legs as promised, my legs...

jennifer57 says "defective sneakers (made in china...need i say more?)" about sg footwear ben10 sneakers

jennifer57 — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 22:27:15 GMT

I bought a pair of ben10 sneakers for my son the week school started. It has been not quite 2 months and both are split down the seams on the sides! The threads are coming loose all over. The rubber type material that goes accrossed the fronts of them have chipped off almost entirely! I just took notice to them this week and am in shock!

My sons sneakers usually last the entire school year and even thru the summer till it's time for back to school shopping again.

I checked the name of the company on the inside of the tongue and it says SG Footwear & made in china. I think it's time us Americans ban all imported items from China!

I reported this to kmart and was told if i had the receipt & had been less then 90 days then I could exchange or return.

Kmart: Are all your shoes made in China? If so, i'll be shopping somewhere else.

Anyone know of a company that makes shoes here in the US? Seems like nothing is made here in our own country anymore.

**Update: we went to kmart...

lchristmas says "They survived Ecuador" about New Balance New Balance Men's MX602 Training Shoes

lchristmas — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 21:47:09 GMT

I got a pair of these shoes before I went to Ecuador for a year. The shoes handled everything from hiking to climbing mountains, to running through the jungle and walking on the cobblestone streets. They were pretty durable, I had shoes with a mesh area around the toes and that got a little beat up but all in all, good....

Jo says "The Compass Shoes Will Point You to the Earth and Comfort" about Earth Compass

Jo — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 22:14:21 GMT

To the Point

For the most part I really like Earth Shoes. When I was looking for a good walking shoe I decided to try Compass by Earth. It can be seen here http://www.planetshoes.com/itemmatrix.asp?groupcode=1918&Item=Earth-Compass&Brand=Earth.

It is now on sale for $84.00 from $109.00 and worth the money.

A Closer View

I do have bad feet. They hurt me a lot so I'll spend whatever I have to on shoes. Having said that (and I don't sell shoes) I think a good pair of shoes is the way to go for everyone especially if you're doing a lot of walking. My black Compass Earth Shoes (butter calf) are leather thus not vegan. They come in sizes from 5 to 12. You can get them in black (not butter calf); mahogany, khaki, and brown.

They are on the heavy side. For me that's not a problem. For someone like my mom who can't feel her feet she needs a very light shoe. My Compass Earth shoes would not work for her.

They have an elastic stretch piece which you can see in the picture making them easy to go on and...

kyrangel says "Perfect pool shoes!" about Crocs Cayman Shoe For Kids

kyrangel — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 14:18:01 GMT

These are perfect to protect the feet around the pool at camp! Too many icky things (like plantar warts) around the floors, so this insures the feet are protected. Also better than flip flops when running since no toes exposed to stub!

LaurieM says "Skate on over your nearest shoe store to get some Vans sneakers " about Vans Boy's Skate Shoes (Hayes)

LaurieM — Sat, 23 Aug 2008 02:16:31 GMT

My ten-year-old son is very fussy about his sneakers. He drives me crazy when I go out to buy him new ones. The tongue can't be too thick, the insides have to feel "just so" and of course, the look has to be cool. At the beginning of the school year last year, I bought him some high top leather Shaq sneakers. They were on sale for some ridiculous price that I couldn't pass up. He really didn't like them but they were inexpensive so he was getting them. Well, I should have forgotten about saving a few bucks because within about a month, he refused to wear them. We had to go back to the store but this time, I let him pick out his own sneakers and after trying on many pair, he finally chose Vans Boy's Skate Shoes (Hayes). They were normally $40 but I got them on sale for around $22 at Payless Shoe Store.

dondalu says "Best thing ever" about Crocs Cayman Shoe For Kids

dondalu — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 14:44:14 GMT

I purchased Crocs for my 7 yr old son and myself. They are the easiest shoe ever for kids. Never have to worry about what they mght step into, clean up is a breeze. He has has his for two summers now and they are great. We somehow lost a rivit and I stopped at the Croc Kiosk and they gladly gave me replacements. Also they survived our puppy! Crocs should consider making doy toys.

nikikali says "best shoes ever" about Birkenstock Caribbean

nikikali — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 19:29:22 GMT

These sandals beat any pair of Croc's hands down. People have actually stopped me on the street becasue either they wanted to know where I got them or they have a pair themselves and we both raved aobut how much we love them. They are stylish, yet durable. Totally waterproof yet don't look too sporty. Not "hippie" looking like most Birkenstock's. Mine have lasted me years and have traveled with me across 3 continenets all for under $40!...

kastrack says "Dressy but comfy Easy Street shoes." about Easy Street Drape shoes

kastrack — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 17:20:47 GMT

Easy Street Drape shoes are perfect for a dressy occasion like a wedding but still comfortable and not overly fussy. I found mine at Value City for only $20. It's hard to find wide width shoes in stores and I usually have to buy them online....

almary says "too expensive for gardens shoes" about Crocs Cayman Shoe For Kids

almary — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 00:00:43 GMT

Crocs at the begining was a shoe created for gardening and the cost was 5.00 dollas. it was afordable but it is a hot shoe that make the feet fill sweat all the time and unconfort. Not designed for walk long time....

huggamira says "My son loves these crocs and won't wear anything else" about Crocs Cayman Shoe For Kids

huggamira — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 23:01:39 GMT

Okay..I get it. They're ugly. Everyones says so. EVERYONE. Comments like "Don't let my nephew wear those disgusting shoes" or "You poor thing, Mommy makes you wear those ugly things." Yes... It isn't everyday but it's often enough for me to take off a star.
On the otherhand, My son loves them. And not "Oooh! i love them" - but yelping cries for three straight hours asking for us to drive back to Grandma's and get them back because we carried him to the car after he fell asleep for a nap.
He's flat footed, so the orthopedic qualities are great for him. He also walks pigeon toed so the material avoids blisters that he has encountered when he wears his other shoes (converse). Although he can't run as well with them as he would with sneakers - he still refuses to even try on another pair/brand now. I just hope when he starts going to school that he would at least rotate his shoes with some new balances or something.

They are easy to clean (I actually throw them in the dishwasher sometimes) and......

mzfitness — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:16:42 GMT

i bought my son some New Balance tennis shoes today. The store was somewhat limited in his shoe size so we had to get a half size larger. The shoes were a little more than what i had intended to pay, however. They are a relatively good shoe, I think....

dggirl says "Just wipe them clean!" about Crocs Cayman Shoe For Kids

dggirl — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 01:31:41 GMT

My daughter loves her crocs!!! She wears them with everything... dressy or casual. The thing I love the most about them is that all you have to do is wipe them clean or just throw them in the sink if they need a quick wash. It's great!...

fultymlezbien says "People usually cop these just cause of the Name." about Nike sneakers

fultymlezbien — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 16:45:43 GMT

Alot of Nike sneakers do not have an appealing look to me and they are not all that duarable. People are not looking at those factors when purchasing Nike. Some of their products are good such as sandles and sports wear but when it somes to the sneaker fashion since part I do not care for them. I would perfer a nice pair of bobo's first....

fultymlezbien says "What animal is that???" about Charlotte Fuzzy Bedroom Slippers

fultymlezbien — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 16:00:11 GMT

I would not wear these unless I had no other plans other than staying in the house. I would wear them in my yard and stuff but I could not go out in public with fuzzies on my shoes! They look they would be fun to wear right after wearing some high heels or something but not just to be walking around thinking that you are setting some fashion trend or something. The 'zoo keeper' might arrest you!...

kodyk says "great buy!" about Nike sneakers

kodyk — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 15:10:55 GMT

When I first got the shoe it was a little bit scetchy but after you wear it in some its wonderful. I recommend this shoe to anyone who like comfortablilty. You can wear it wherever you go. The schools, parks, malls, and running of course. This shoe makes it so you never want to be bearfoot....
