Favorite Shoes???????

[dtsoll]

Well, for me, I have been wearing Rockports for 7-8 years. I prefer the Rockport World Tour. I do a lot of walking at the High School that I work as a custodian, several miles a day I'm sure. For a comfortable, long lasting, sub $100, pair of shoes, I've found these to work for me. Okay, anybody else like these or........What are you wearing??

My favorite hiking boots are the Magnum Amazons. They are full size boots, but lightweight and tan color. Excellent support and performance, but they are familiar for extended wear from my time in the army... I just can't bring myself to wear traditional combat boots with civilian clothes. This gives me the same feel and better performance with a civilian look.

My favorite shoes that I rarely wear are some blue Puma driving shoes made for Racing Sparco. They look out of place everywhere but the track. Since I sold my MR2, I spend very little time at the track... one day, I'll buy another fun car, if for no other reason than to wear those shoes! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

1)Merrell jungle mocs- the most comfortable all around shoes ever.

And secondly ,I really dig my reissued Adidas Countrys/

My Doc Martens 8836's are a dream to wear from long walking days. Tough, good looking, ANSI steeltoe, nice and thick oil, grease, acid resistant, and slip-proof.

Ecco Casual Classic. I wear these to work and they're so lightweight and comfortable, yet they're so durable too. I also have a pair of Rockports, but I prefer Ecco. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif Ecco's sound interesting, Skyline, what kind of a dollar figure are we talking about?? I should have maybe waited on buying another pair of Rockports!! Doug /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

My favorite shoes are actually sandals.

Teva and Keen are my favorites. REAL shoes... but sandals.

I concur with the Rockports. Not only very comfortable but lightweight as well.

 

[Flying Turtle]

Rockports here, too. My daily wear are your basic black Rockport "walking shoe". Don't know the model. They were on sale, lightweight, and more comfortable than slippers. I've about worn all the tread off after a couple years now, so they will soon be replaced by another pair.

I wore my Timberland boat shoes for 17 years before they finally gave out this past spring. They were the next best thing to barefoot.

I wore a pair of Merrell Reflexes into the ground... and still wear them. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I also like my good ol' Nikes.

I have a pair of mephisto that are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. They're expensive, but feel great!

 

[bobisculous]

I wear Pumas almost all the time. They have to most coolest colors around. You cant find many shoes that are bright yellow with red stripes, or some green alligator looking a feeling skin shoes that resemble soccer shows with the flap. Good stuff I think.

I second Eccos. I have several pairs. Everything from their everyday casual look to two pairs of wingtips and one pair of cap-toes.

For something a little more work-like I have really liked my Dunhams. Made by New Balance. In my daily grind I'm a desk jockey but I also work concerts a lot. My feet made it through the 5 17-hour days of the Austin City Limits festival with no problems.
