I consider myself to be a fairly practical person… but I sure as hell own a metric shit ton of completely impractical shoes. Think of it as a one woman fight against the balls of my own feet.
I’m awesome like that.
Well, with the advent of this whole Hope Fucked Up Her Knee business, I’m finding that I can’t wear a good chunk of the shoes that I own. Rather than reevaluate my own footwear choices, I chose to cope with this new void in my shoe life by purchasing a pair of Chuck Taylors. Pros: Flat. Basic black goes with everything in my wardrobe (a plus when your other footwear choices are a pair of rainboots and my painting shoes). They let me to pretend that I’m still young and hip even if all the kids are all probably wearing something totally different. And impractical.
Cons? I wonder if they send out the message that I don’t take myself all that seriously.
On second thought, I don’t take myself all that seriously.
Yeah, these shoes are pretty much full of win.
chucks offer zero support for your feet, but if they make your knees feel better . . .
