Amen. I love mine. I fell in love back when I was a tree-huggin' college student. I couldn't find a pair of hiking boots that wouldn't put blisters on top of blisters. I still have scars from that abuse. It got to the point were I'd just hike in my birks they were so comfy.
I really like the current trend toward mules and slides. I love not having 'shoe' rub on my heels. My current favorite pairs is a casual Friday shoe: Luchesse's "Charlie One Horse" Slides. They're just yummy.
Those are VEY cute, but I can't do that pointy toe thang! I gots to have a wide box for my toeses.
