Bria Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 I sure wish I could find more leather shoes out there. Im tired of the PU plastic sweaty ones that seem to be flooding the market today. What are your thoughts on this. and can anyone help me find a nice pair of simple 4 inch leather pumps. In the vancouver area
Arctic Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 I never buy anything else than leather, unless they look extremely appealing. I can't stand sweaty feet. Bert What's all the fuss about?
Joak Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 Well, I reallyp prefer leather shoes - I don't like the feel of plastic on my feet. If I'm looking for a patent look, I look that the insole, etc. is made of leather. Joak
loveheel Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 I know what you mean. While I like the shoes they have at places like Payless (and the price !) in the end I always go with leather shoes. It just makes for a much more pleasant wearing experience.
anthrax Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 The way I see it, the leather ones may start off being more, but in terms of wear, lifespan (with proper care of course. If you abuse the product, whatever it is, it's not going to last, and you deserve to lose money.), comfort, and overall look, they're more than worth it. In the end, you can even end up laying out less money by buying the better product.
hoverfly Posted August 13, 2002 Posted August 13, 2002 Leather hands down, can streach them up to two sizes to fit my feet. Hello, my name is Hoverfly. I’m a high heel addict…. Weeeeeeeeeee! 👠1998 to 2022!
Yamyam Posted August 14, 2002 Posted August 14, 2002 My favourite pairs are both leather, and I paid the difference! However, for those 'fun' styles that I just had to have, I went for PU. I kind of like the unreal shinyness, but I probably wouldn't spend all day in them (oh, like I get to spend all day in heels anyhow - I wish!) Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
Smudgeur Posted August 20, 2002 Posted August 20, 2002 My wife recently bought some plastic heels for only £15 from www.argosadditions.co.uk Here's what they look like We both take a UK8 (Eur42) but these really are too tight. Beware - we have had this problem from here before and are now having to send them back. Shame really as they have a gorgeous 4" heel
Smudgeur Posted August 20, 2002 Posted August 20, 2002 Incidentally we are now going to invest in these instead. They have sling backs and open toes to give us more room and they also go up to a UK10. Shame we have to drop half an inch though PS Wish I could work out how to get an image in my posts
Yamyam Posted August 20, 2002 Posted August 20, 2002 PS Wish I could work out how to get an image in my posts Make sure you don't have any extra text between the tags... you should type in the URL for the image, then make sure that the {img}{/img} tags enclose only that - like this: That ought to do it. Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic"
