https://us.ecco.com/ecco-mens-soft-7-sneaker-430004.html?dwvar_430004_color=01001 :these every day for years, great arch support, very comfortable, last forever, daily work shoe on campus https://www.zappos.com/p/on-cloud-5-men-midnight-navy/product/9599001/color/31474 :these for travel and knocking about, very lightweight, not a lot of support https://www.zappos.com/p/lowa-renegade-gtx-mid-espresso/product/7291094/color/359 :these for hiking, hunting, etc https://www.zappos.com/p/brooks-ghost-15-flintstone-peacoat-oak/product/9733897/color/994808 :these for walking, running and around the house https://www.zappos.com/p/scarpa-mojito-shark/product/7683767/color/19666 :these are the outlier, the most comfortable shoes I own, fit like a glove, great for light hiking and trails and travel when boots are a bit much to pack for a short trip. I have big feet, 12-13, and don't like cheap clunky shoes, need good support for back, etc. I buy good shoes and keep them forever. Schnee's packs for cold weather, Lucchese ropers for a bit dressier, Xtratuf's wellies for the wet stuff.

Just because you're offended doesn't mean your right.

Redwing King Toe free screen capture softwareFor everything but Church. If I wear shoes. Often it's my Croc water shoes. They have a more sturdy toe for protection, and leather velcro straps. They stay on. The only thing worse in snow is bare feet. I've busted my ass too many times thinking I'd slip them on for a quick trip outside. Thought they were the worst until I went out barefoot in a crusty snow. Didn't think I'd make it back in, wasn't sure I could get up with my screwed knee and no shoes. Not gonna try that again... until I do.

These sexy bastards get the job done. I'd show some leg but I don't want Paul to get all in a lather.

I like Skechers for a lot of every day wear, have multiple pairs in varying condition from nearly new to nearly worn out depending on what I want to be wearing them for. Lately I have found several great like new pairs of shoes and boots on Ebay cheap; moccasin construction from LL Bean and Lanona, very good looking and super comfortable. I want one or two more, been looking at some Sperry, Gokey, Allen Edmond and others. No hurry, wait until the price is right on the style that I want. There are literally thousands for sale there, but not that many in a 13. For hunting or if necessary for some other reason I've got an older pair of Rocky Ranger 8", a pair of Danner 452 hikers and a few months ago Midway had some sizes of Irish Setter 838s on clearance sale dirt cheap so I snagged a pair of those. Very comfortable. I won't likely wear them enough to wear them out in my remaining days. It's great to have good footwear though, I have severe neuropathy and bad shoes hurt me in a hurry.

Queerin sabe and alla that happy chit I was just in the walmarks and they got a sweet pair of Etonics on the rack. Look like old school Airwalks! Gonna get me a pair. I usually rock either crocs, a pair of Addidas runners, or a pair of Costcos finest $29.99 Khombu hikers.
