i am really curious about how girls wear shoes without socks and their feet are not sweatinf or smelling bad. i think it is related with the insole material of th shoe, so what's the most compatible insole type for wearing sockless? girls are all wearing those ballets or sneakers sockless, whats the type of insole of them? i am thinking to buy a fully leather insoled (fully leather, sole, sides and every place inside the shoe is leather) converse, and the outside is leather and fabric mixed. what do you suggest me to do? or i want to buy a nike roubaix which is outside of the shoe is full leather with breathing holes (not completely covered with holes) and the inside, back of the inside was nylon(fake leather) i think and the sole and the other (sides) of the inside was fabric, does fabric smells without socks? (i know canvas smells badlly from converse sockless) if i buy them, i will be wearing them sockless most of the time, so what do you suggest me to do? thanks for your answers?
What is the hint of girls about wearing shoes sockless?
Don't get anything leather, it's cruel! %26lt;3
Reply:most girls who wear their shoes like that aren't really wearing them sockless.
they make special socks to hide underneath different types of shoes, so there's a sock for ballet flats, and sneakers that you can't see when you put the shoe on.
and then there's some who's feet just don't smell :P
I think it's because girls take better care of their feet.
Reply:Depending on what shoe you wear, you might be able to get a ped (a partial sock that only covers the bottom, toes and heel of your foot) and that will make it look sockless. Or if that doesn't work take your shoes off periodically when no one is looking to vent your feet. I hate going sockless, it makes my feet feel so gross.

What material are your shoes?
I am vegeterian but I do wear leather shoes. Pleather looks cheap and more importantly I loathe synthetics. I just can't find a good alternative. I don't wear a lot of different styles of shoes. I only need 1 pair of dress boots and 1 pair of dress heels. I don't have any problems finding casual shoes that are canvas but dress shoes are a big problem. What are my alternatives? I am desparate for some animal friendly choices that look nice as I really have to look upscale for work.
What material are your shoes?
Your question got me curious, so I did a search for "vegan friendly shoes". Here are some of the results(please understand that I'm not vegan, so I don't know how great these sites actually are, they are just what came up from my search):

You can try Mooshoes.com, it sells dress shoes that look pretty and smart.

Reply:I do wear synthetic shoes and they don't always look cheap. I've got some that cost nearly $90 and sold from Nordstrom. I prefer environmentally friendly ones like hemp, but I can't always get away with that so I use shoe trees to keep my shoes looking new and I can buy less that way.
As a vegan I would never wear leather shoes.

They looked pretty good, too. True story.

Reply:I'm poor, so I wear what I can get. Usually it's cheap non-leather shoes that don't last very long, but recently found a shoe sale and got some really nice leather ones. Manufacturers basically refuse to make non-leather shoes, and hey, if cow scraps are cheap, why not? There are also some pretty cool hemp shoes out there too if you want the burlap look. But if I did have the money, I'd buy shoes from here:

I did LOTS of looking around and found that these shoes were top quality vegan shoes that were also COOL looking etc. that they make themselves. And the Australian Dollar is so much more attractive than that bloody British Pound. They'll even do custom shoes for a price. That's cool! They've been around for at least 10 years (yes, I've been poor that long... much longer in fact).

Can someone help me on a pair of shoes?
I need some shoes that are related to or maybe even these colors: http://www.shoes.com/product.asp?p=50386... %26lt; but not as expensive. Can someone help me? I have to get shoes that aren't too thick around my ankles - something that is in along the lines of these. My feet can't fit into shoes that have a think material around the shoe! If anyone can give me ideas or some type of shoe I should look for or where I could get shoes like this that aren't so cheap - I would be satisfied! Thank you for your time and patience! :-)
Can someone help me on a pair of shoes?
Payless sells shoes very similar to that. However, I think they are orange not grey and blue.
Reply:to be honest thats a pretty good price on those shoes considering the quality they are. runnign shoes generally start at 80 bucks. i would say order them from their but heres another site you could try www.endless.com
Reply:Try going to a sports store, they usually have all different kinds of shoes. Im sure if you explain what your looking for they can help you. Remember you always get what your paying for, cheap isn't always a good thing. Once you find the right shoe don't you want it to last a long time?
Reply:You could try finish line..they have all kinds of shoes or a Vans store..vans are soo comfortable and there not tight around the ankle..they dont go up that far..
Reply:well my advice is to email to tell me what these shoes are for
what ocasion
if they are for like phys. ed. then just go to payless and buy a pair of ghetto shoes because you are only gonna wear them once so just buy crappy ones if they arent for anything special
Reply:Those are really cute shoes and I am not sure where you can get them but I don't know where you ive or if you have a shoe carnival by you but they are running a buy one get one 1/2 price I just went there last night and got a few pairs of shoes and sneakers you could go there and get tow pair or go there with one of your friends that need one pair and you guys split the price of the 1/2 shoe and then it won't but as much

Running Shoes still good?
I used to be a big runner until about 10 years ago when I got injured and stopped. I have an expensive pair of running shoes from then that are barely used. My question is. Are those running shoes still good? i.e. Does "time" wear down the support materials in running shoes?
Running Shoes still good?
Time will damage the shoes, especially if they had already been used before; I know you day barely used but they will have still likely picked up acidity for from the soil etc. and certianly will have picked up sweat while they were being used, with sweat etc. sat around in the trainer means they will degrade with time.
Without seeing your individual pair I couldn't tell you whether they were still good, how about buying a replacement pair, and comparing the cushioning etc. that way if you do decide they're fine you can get some more miles in them before switching, if they're not fine then you have a pair there. My best guess would be that they will probably not be in great condition, but it does depend how much 'barely' used is.
Reply:Yes, time will age the cushioning on your shoes. Most running web sites recommend new shoes at least every 9-12 months even if you haven't hit the 300-500 miles for this reason
Reply:No if your shoes havent been worn then they should nt be worn down. The only reason they would be worn down was unless some alien wore them while u were out.
It is always good to have two pairs anyway when jogging to swap them over on the one day u do jog and then the next day with the other pair intermittently. The most important thing with running is to look after your feet.
Reply:Spring for new shoes. Mark. The bottoms of your shoes are made from chemicals and begin to decline immediately after they are made.
Wear the old ones as a reminder that you should not repeat your injuries.
Good Luck
Reply:No, I have shoes 25 years old. Its the collar where the plastic oxidized and caused deterioration. I still run in my 35 year old New Balance Trackster 3's, with the bleeding blue suede
Reply:It is possible that some of the material may become hardened with time. The most important part of the shoe to check is the midsole layer of a shoe, which provides the cushioning and stability. The midsole is under the heel or the ball of the foot, and a shoe that has aged too long will show wrinkles and creases there.
The most definitive test is your own feet. Try on your shoes and go for a short run. If your shoes feel uncomfortable, or worse yet, if they cause you pain, muscle fatigue, or tightness, you are well past the appropriate time to get new shoes. If they feel fine, well, feel free to continue using them.
Reply:They most likely are slightly damaged from dry rot having sat around for 10 years. Now that you are using them again the dry rot will cause the shoes mid sole to break down quicker than normal. As long as you are not feeling pain in your feet, shins or knees using the shoes is okay.

Vans® slip-on shoes maintenance?
How to clean and maintain the quality of VANS® slip-on shoes?
my shoes is more than 1 year now and the rubber sides are now detaching from the cloth material of the shoe, what can i put on to make it stick again? super glue or rugby?
how do i clean my shoes manually (without using any washing machine)?
the color of my shoes is black with red rose embroidered in it.
please help! thanks!
Vans® slip-on shoes maintenance?
i wish i could help you but most of my vans have turned out like that. damn. how long have you had them? ive had this one pair for about two years... and they were ripped a few months after i bought em. but i found that..after buying two more pairs as the years went buy...the quality got better. and ive kept these shoes for many months now and they are clean + in perfect condition.
Reply:put them in the washing machine or just buy a new pair. i put mine alwayz in the microwave to dry and they have a fit to fit my foot once i put them on.
Reply:at the vans store theres a cleaner you can buy for five dollars
and super glue doesnt work....i tried on my vans
i had to buy new ones....mine were over two years old
hope i helped
Reply:time to throw them away and buy some new oness =]
%26amp; when u at the store , they sell cleaners and stuff for it. just ask next time you get some
Reply:come on now... theyre vans! get some new ones, theyre only 40 bucks. when you do buy, invest in some shoe protectant to spray on and then when they get dirty, theyre much easier to clean n junk. :D
p.s. if you wanna spend 60, you can go to journeys and buy super cute DC shoes :D (baby blue, hot pink, all kindsa junk)
EDIT: if youre not in america and dont have access/money, buy more reliable shoes. i had a pair of etnies that lasted me 3 years of hardcore wear and tear. cost me 80 bucks, but i wound up wearing out the padding on the inside, outside they still looked fabulous.

you can try Rubber Super Glue...
it's a package that's silver w/ Maroon words...its sticks super well and acts like a substitute to the the rubber on your shoes.
You can clean the rubber on your shoes w/ cotton balls and Alcohol (the kind for wounds, not the wine and other stuff) and just wipe the dirt off w/ that. It works super well.

Adidas Megabounce Shoes Making Noise?
I just bought a pair of the new adidas megabounce shoes over the weekend and i really love them other than that one of them makes a annoying popping noise evertime you take a step. Its at the toe of the shoe above where your toes would be. The material of the shoe is whats causing it because its a plastic material but i was wondering if i should just keep wearing them and maybe they'll break in and stop or should i try returning them?

If it's really annoying, I would try returning them.
Reply:They sound like a megajoke.
Reply:even i have adidas megabounce but they dont have any problem.
if u r having some problem then return n get a replacement cos these shoes are excellent
