The Swedish lady from Tretorn told me on the phone that I can order them direct, and what size I should try. I have never ordered shoes through the post before.

I had these super-soft leather ones. Replaced them with random ones ordered online and they were kind of sleeping-bag material :(

got these for 70 this week, the grenson sale is amazing if you are in the uk (not sure how much shipping is) they'd normally be 180ish.

nice heel! i need brown boots

surm, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 14:18 (twelve years ago)

hurting those are some nice shoes dog

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 14:20 (twelve years ago)

ty

yeah I am pretty into shoes with soles/heels that are a different shade from the rest of the shoe. Not those lunar crepe things, just like tan with brown or tan with black.

HOOS next aka won't get steened again (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 14:29 (twelve years ago)

yeah the heel is super important

surm, Tuesday, 30 July 2013 15:00 (twelve years ago)

i'm wearing clicky heels today, i like them. the shoes are black but the laces and stitching are midnight blue which is also a neat contrast

i'm very (perhaps overly) wary of two tone shoe/heel combos, playful or classic-with-a-twist or whatever doesnt seem to work for me at all

Had to check this a few times before I realised, haha, poor guy. Pretty nice shoes.

Just got a pair of these, mostly because of the big reduction (£50 from £125 iirc):

Please review your choices carefully. (seandalai), Friday, 2 August 2013 18:25 (twelve years ago)

The Vintage Shoe Company shoes I bought just feel incredibly well-constructed -- good leather, tight stitching, every sold but still comfortable. And apparently made in the USA too so I guess I should feel proud of that or something.

Not the most exciting shoe purchase but yesterday was the first time I'd ever purchased the exact same shoe to replace a worn out pair. RIP two year old Sambas:

Also, since they were on sale and I only ever wear black shoes I bought a pair of these ridiculous Sauconys at the same time to liven things up a bit:

rocking these 2day - i love that they are really like highlighter bright; they're p good shoes, i had already had a pair in yellow that i've destroyed mostly by playing tennis a lot in them so i really cant wear them casually anymore

johnny crunch, Friday, 23 August 2013 15:20 (twelve years ago)

so I went to the Bass outlet with like, no money, thinking well I'll just look and clock what they have for when I'm cashed up, and ended up leaving with

1 pair leopard print espadrille-style flats - $20
1 pair purple suede loafer flats - $20

booya!

okay I know between these and my purple suede boots and bedazzled sandals I'm veering int 70's Elvis/Liberace level crazy shoe closet (if only the gold leather had been in my size)...but they're p freaking rad and colorful shoes make me happy

I just recently noticed my appalling shoe conservatism. Inspiring!

ljubljana, Thursday, 29 August 2013 12:06 (twelve years ago)

I get more conservative from the top down: fun shirts, bright solid-colour trousers, brown shoes.

tokyo rosemary, Tuesday, 10 September 2013 14:56 (twelve years ago)

shoe ppl: please help me find the following to replace my everyday black flats that i wear basically all the time to work

black flat, very minor heel ok (like 1 in)
pointy toe preferred (do not like very rounded toes, pointies are just as comfortable and i feel are more flattering, on me at least)
soft flexible sole
no toe cleavage/somewhat high cut (but not like a loafer)
ok for standing on for 6 hours
embellishment ok within reason
no buckles/clasps -- must be slip on

i have no idea how to search for all of these things at once. i'm shopping impaired and very impatient. i've been needing to replace the beat up old ones i have for over a year!

no fomo (La Lechera), Friday, 13 September 2013 14:41 (twelve years ago)

you're probably going to have to look at flats and/or dress flats and then just find what you want by browsing...

but modcloth has a pretty cute array of flats, and a lot of diff pointy toe styles, you might start there and see if there's anything you like

redwings are pretty unfuckwithable, although I think they would look kind of dorky on me, as bulkier shoes usually do

#fomo that's the motto (Hurting 2), Friday, 13 September 2013 16:54 (twelve years ago)

LL that's my dream shoe and I have yet to find it :(
They're always too 'low cut' and/or too wide so my foot just slips out.

kinder, Friday, 13 September 2013 17:19 (twelve years ago)

those are v good IO!! where did you find them?

no fomo (La Lechera), Friday, 13 September 2013 18:56 (twelve years ago)

modcloth shoes are cute, but many of them are not v high qual in my experience. i've bought a few pairs and they're basically only for special occasions. but on those special occasions i get to wear little gold ballet shoes that make me feel like a goddess/fairy and heeled booties with bows that give off a sweetly badass air (until the next bow needs to be glued back on)

my favorite ones ever were from bakers.

no fomo (La Lechera), Friday, 13 September 2013 19:02 (twelve years ago)

They're from zappos.com and they're Rockports, which means the quality should be at least reasonably good!

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Friday, 13 September 2013 19:08 (twelve years ago)

I know the vamp might be a little too low for what you wanted, but they seemed good enough to at least show you. :)

Tottenham Heelspur (in orbit), Friday, 13 September 2013 19:10 (twelve years ago)

ooh the red and yellow ones are on sale too!

no fomo (La Lechera), Friday, 13 September 2013 19:14 (twelve years ago)

I love the red ones obviously.
