These new shoes that are fabric based, Skechers, et al, nowadays are crap. They last about three months with me..................
I did a security shift at a Saint Laurents a couple of days ago. That’s a very high end fashion shop, if you don’t know. Their runners between $1000 and $2000. Their high heeled shoes were about the same. They had a lady’s slip for $1700. A blazer jacket for $5,000.
I am telling you that their quality was no better than what you or I might by. The only reason to buy this stuff there, as opposed to a Target, is as a statement that you can afford to overspend on the same stuff that you or I buy.
Try the shoes at orthofeet.com. They’re great and long lasting.
I recently picked up a pair of Palladium Pallabrouse boots. Rubber and canvas, they are identical to the boots issued to the French Foreigh Legion is the late 40’s and 50’s (same company). Surprisingly comfortable and great traction.
The ironic part is that the pair I have was made in Vietnam.
