      .... just kidding about the last one. I've been wearing
      ECCO shoes for a number of years and lately their Gor-Tex
      range ..... they are really cool on the foot πŸ‘

          has anyone experience with these new MBT shoes, that tell us, that we walked the wrong way for the last hundret years?

          http://www.milletsports.co.uk/images/uploads/products/MBT/TarikiBlack.jpg

          I tried them on in a store - they are really comfortable and indeed force you to stand upright. but I am not sure if I want to wear these all the time. for example I have no idea how climbing stairs in this shoes feels like.

          and 150 pound are a bit much for an experiment...

            Remember the Kelso Earth Shoes of the 1970's? I used to have a pair but I don't remember if I liked to wear them. Yikes! it was over 30 years ago. They feature a 'negative heel' that was supposed to improve your posture and burn more calories (since you are always walking uphill).

            Anyone else try them? They are selling them again here.

                  @igor: Shoes? You really ask about shoes?? You know what happens when you start speaking about shoes with a woman present? I could help you to make this thread a HUGE one... but will try my very best not to...

                  @solo: "Need" and "Shoe" - I will never understand how these two words can go together. There is really no need at all to have a new pair of shoes - sometimes it is just the existence of a pair of shoes that makes the "need" to own it πŸ˜‰

                  Today we are expecting about 95Β°F... so this will be the shoe of the day...

                    I think you refer to women here!

                    a lot of men (like myself) wear shoes until they literally die (the shoes, not the men πŸ˜• ).
                    not until your toes make direct contact with tarmac, it is time to look for another pair of shoes...

                    I know; such cruelty to lovely creatures like shoes is unreproducible for women πŸ˜„

                      @plot-paris: yep. sometimes I believe the way to think about shoes is the fact that divides mankind in men and women...

                      ...waiting for winter, did I mention that before... ? πŸ˜’

                        well, I can completely understand why you are waiting for winter (and I am not talking about me (surname) πŸ˜‰ )

                        these boots are indeed beautyful.

                        yeah, I know. I think in the last months I reorganized my priorities in life.

                        1. SCF
                        2. SketchUp (in close persuit)
                        3. Social contacts...

                        I know, this is sad - and a bit nerdy. but I am proud of it 😍

                          thank you. And I completely agree with your priorities. The same with me, besides the fact that I had not much time for SU the past weeks due to some fights with CMS-software.

                          Proud to be nerdy, too. And proud to be addicted to shoes........

                            Franziska,

                            What do you think of this invention?

                              Mike,

                              strange, really strange 😲 Althuogh I can understand the reason for that invention, oh yeah... but you will never see me wearing those. It's a question of aesthetics (and a question of female pride as well, maybe πŸ˜‰ ) There is only one honorable solution for escaping a feet-are-burning-due-to-4 1/2"-stiletto-heels - situation: putting your shoes off and continue dancing πŸ˜› (or - more practical for non-dancing-situations- have another flat-heeled pair in your handbag... πŸ˜‰ )

                                Yeah Franziska, I agree with you. I don't think they will
                                catch on as they do not look good at half mast πŸ˜‰ Also the
                                second pair of flats in the old reliable hand bag makes a
                                lot more sense. Where would you ladies be without your
                                hand bags! My good lady is so possessive of hers, I'm not
                                even allowed to look into it, not that I would even dream
                                of it ...... have far more respect for my well being πŸ˜†

                                  yeah, that is the last barrier of privacy.

                                  you know each other very well, know every freckle of her body, have been sharing a bed for years. but you are never allowed to so much as glipse into her handbag.

                                  allthough I had a girlfriend once, who didn,t mind me looking through her handbag, when in need of a tissue. I was utterly embarrassed and felt like an intruder... πŸ˜•

                                    I am a big fan of Merrell footwear and my latest addition several weeks ago are these:
                                    Real top quality and extremely comfortable.

                                      There was a chap who lived down the road from us who designed merrel shoes, he once gave me a pair to test drive that looked very similar to the ones youve got dylan. Perhaps yours are an evolution of the early ones i had? (i'll try and find a pic.)
