New Shoes!

I know some of you - perhaps the women - might find it surprising to learn that I just purchased my first new pair of shows in about six years. It might even be longer than that. Seriously.

I am breaking them in now, as I type. Ah, new shoes, with that new shoe smell. It's awesome. I might run out and get another pair this week.

I've had a pair of shoes for about 5 years now, but they're starting to fall apart and be uncomfortable. I'm going to have to go buy a new pair now too.

I work on my feet, so I wear out 3 pairs of shoes a year. New shoes are no big thrill for me. ;)

I would love to have a pair of shoes last me six years. I buy cheap sdhoes, fall in love with them, then they wear out and spend months and months searching for a pair that will match the comfort and style (and most of all, price), of my perfect pair of cheap shoes.

umm,

Shoes tend to stink over time....

What yours must smell like I can't imagine. And won't.

My timberland hiking shoe boots and my original Uggs brought with me from Australia are the shoes which have lasted the longest for me.

wow, that's impressive...my enormous pods which pass for feet eat through shoes pretty quickly.

I guess I should point out that I haven't been wearing the same shoes for 6 years. I had a few options, but most of those have met the end of their useful existence.

I have to have new shoes once a year at least.. Maybe two..

the shoes I'm wearing righ tnow are almost 6 years old. That being said, and being that I'm more a typical woman than I used to be, I have purchased many pairs since then. I still think I don't have enough shoes.
