Shoes

Some shoes. Some are really old, some are worn out, some are new or newer. Some are of a type one doesn't find any more, at least for men. Slip-ons, sports shoes, Clarks, and boots have their own pages.

Rieker Anti-Stress (2012)

Size 44 extra weit

Eram (2010)

Size 43

Ganter (2003 or 2004?)

Size 9 H

Hush Puppy (1999?)

When I was little, my grandmother wore Hush Puppies. I wore Buster Brown's. I finally decided to try Hush Puppies around 1999. Like so many things, they have changed now; they have all sorts of “normal” soles, not just the foam soles that were their uniqueness (and justified their name, they don't squeak or creak). I bought a pair with the original foam soles and returned leather. My chief complaint is that the seam in the heel of one is rough and protrusive and wears my heel raw if I walk much in them; I've tried masking it with duct tape and that helps, but it isn't really a cure. Also, the foam soles are soft enough that sand and grit (and pieces of walnut shell from my garden) get stuck in them. Looking on the sunny side, I guess I'll probably never wear them out. Size appears to be 9 ½M.

Roots (1980s)

Style 1413, Size 9. Negative heel. The only shoe of this type I've found on the Internet lately (October 2012) are Kalso Earth Shoes for women (their men's shoes have non-negative heels).
