no. no. a thousand times over, no. nice sandals for women don't even exist.

just because obviously shoe designers are randomly splicing away, so why not. it's like fish-tomatoes, for your feet.

I agree with Lauren about the whole sandals issue, ugh ugh ugh other people's gnarly toes.
Mary, those slip-on Converse look even better in a grey high-top. Nick's girlfriend H has a lovely pair.

Going to the beach or running errands is obviously a bit of a different story, I don't think anyone expects pure unadulterated fashion at the Fairway.

I was hanging out with a group of friends and we split off into male and female groups for walking around a shopping area. Being the gender stereotype killers we are, we ended up looking at shoes. My two accomplices ended up picking up very similar shoes. When the sales guy asked what size they needed, they both said at the same time, "ten and a half." I'm fairly sure he thought they were some sort of couple with a shoe fetish. In any case, I envy the shoes and wish I'd bought them since they ended up being really comfortable:http://www.zappos.com/images/793/7177793/1729-165321-p.jpg

I think I am quite happy for men to wear sandals (not flip flops) in most situations as long as their feet are nice. It seems unfair that women should have access to a whole world of acceptable sandals whereas for men it is something of a minefield.

To put that another way, I envy you people, for your knowledge and enthusiasm. Your world of footwear seems very glamorous.

okay, last pair i'll post, but ones i really want b/c even if they're not ultra stylish (like those yellow ones, aw), i KNOW they're really comfortable (clarks originals) and will last. alas, only available in UK and would cost me a stupid amt of money (that i do not have right now, esp for wedge sandals of all things) to get. OH WELLL.

I like shoes, and whilst I do have a pair or two of quite expensive/overpriced ones, I have also recently discovered the joy of Primark shoes. Cheap-and-cheerful catwalk copies for a mere £8 a pair! Who cares if they fall apart after only a few months!

And I love them. Quite possibly my favourite pair of shoes, ever.
