It is my wonderful, comfortable pair of ECCO walking sandals...I always say, "I could walk to China and my feet don't hurt". I wear these shoes to trade shows and whenever I travel. THEY HAVE BEEN MY GO TO SHOES for nearly 5 years. Unbelievable. Here they are in
April 2010 -- during my visit to NYC with Ann Sagawa...
But, alas, all good things MUST end. My black Ecco's are shot. I feel every step nowadays. Ugh. This is going to be a problem...finding a new walking sandal...in a wide width. Double ugh. You can see in this next picture how fat my foot is. My friend Linda has the green pedicure. I opted for a purple big toe and pink for the others...
On this day, shopping in CHICAGO with my friend Marion. She SWEARS by her new ECCO sandals. So I bought a pair -- now we are truly "sole sisters"...but I already know these are not going to be my new "go to" walking sandals...
Have you seen these shoes -- with the individual toes? Anybody tried them? Sadly, my toes are too fat...
Here's a friendly, very happy salesman -- who is smiling because if he can sell me TWO pairs of shoes today -- he can take his wife on a Caribbean cruise...
Sure enough -- I bought the new Ecco's and this pair of Wolkey walking sandals. Perfect, right??
Well....not quite. My little toe developed a painful blister on the short walk back to the hotel.But I have not given up...my plan is to stock up on band-aids and toughen up that wimpy little toe...!! With any luck -- these are the shoes you'll be seeing in future posts!!
Saying GoodBye to my Ecco's is going to be a very traumatic event. I'm thinking of having a shoe funeral...
Good luck with the shoes. I also have trouble getting the "right" shoe. Your feet can make or break a day.........I think they have way to much power!!
