Leather shoes: Any recommendation?

[DACH]

Are you buying if the shoe size is right?

This kind of atas shoes not suitable for low SES, short, fat, ugly and crazy old man like me.

It’s a great insult to the shoes.

I recommend not wearing leather shoes.

 

Save the cows.

The cows will have to die for their meat anyway. So either you use the skin or you throw them away.

its recycling.

Wear thicker socks like those army black socks. Can get FOC if you are still in service.

 

They are of much better quality compared to last time in the 60/70/80/90's era. Tried those premium dress shoes socks from Japan with those numbo jumbo features also no use... too thin.... to slippery.... to fragile.... fabric loosening at first wear...

 

Also, your shoe size might be wrong though it's customized. It's remarkable that I can wear and fit into different sizes (9 to 11) of the same brand same model shoes, but only one of the size will not kill my feet. Too many people are wearing too small a shoe. I had few encounters where shoes sales people trying to sell me smaller size shoes, even from shoes shops with measuring device. You definitely need a 1/2 or one size larger than what the measuring machine tells you.

 

Slippery socks, slippery insoles are culprits that fool you that you are wearing too large a size when it is not.

Oh no I thought they killed the cows for the skin to make leather shoes

 

and throw away the meat if its not used so I have been eating a lot of beef

 

so its not wasted.

 

 

Which one is more valuable? The leather or the meat?

 

A lot of beef is wasted but very little leather is wasted cos its so expensive.

please please, I still like beef a lot.

[Jamesc]

please please, I still like beef a lot.

 

Its ok to eat more beef.

 

They kill the cows to make leather shoes

 

and we eat the beef that they would have just thrown away.

 

We are recycling.

My most comfortable pair of leather shoes... Rockport. Very cushy, light and soft. But don't hold up in the shape... Gets cui like this quickly despite only wearing it 2 times per week.

 

Current state...

Probably your MIL is wearing clothes using cow skin. 

It's not too tight. It's custom made, if still too tight then the shoemaker is a failure.

 

And no lah, who'd want to buy used shoes? So er xin. During CNY one of my distant relatives wore my loafers by mistake to get food from the buffet. He wasn't wearing socks!! It must have been a good 10 mins at least that he's wearing it. I felt like throwing away that pair already.

 

Anyway, tried a free fix when driving just now. Stuffed a piece of paper in to create an air gap. It works perfect!

Din realise my bump can cause a mark inside

I think you better get a shoe sole to cushion the ankle area. 

That bump looks quite serious to me. 

 

Actually wear used shoes is ok la. If don't like other people whom have worn before, then just use water to wash it. Then can wear again.

Don't like to waste a pair of good shoes. People in Africa don't even have shoes to wear.

No she does not.

 

What were you thinking?

 

Some thing like this?

Try Asics airwalk or Clarks unstructured series.

 

Both are very comfortable, comes in wide cuts

[Jamesc]

I find hard leather shoes very painful and safety shoes are very comfortable if a little bit heavy.

 

The steel toe caps also save me when my MIL step on my toes.

 

More people should consider.

 

 

For the status conscious some even look like executive shoes senior management like to use.

[Jamesc]

Anyone buy shoes from the adult sex store?

 

I wanted to buy some safety shoes from them

 

but worry they send some sex toys by mistake.

My problem with China made shoes sold online is with the heel cup. I feel they're too soft and hardly provide any support. You can never tell until they're delivered.
