What is it with clown shoes?
My work shoes have finally kicked the bucket - they're falling apart insiode and so reluctantly, I had to go shoe shopping this evening after work.
It seems that the shoe shop moguls have conspired to require me to purchase enormously long pointy shoes. Every shoe shop I went into had these... clown shoes. That's the only way I can describe them. Long pointy shoes. So long in fact that the size nine shoe pictured on the left is an inch and a half longer than my own size eleven shoe on the right.
I mean, how do you walk up stairs with these things? Your toes will never get close enough to the step to afford you any purchase. I'd be forever tripping over them (more so than I do anyway, I mean)! It's madness, I tell you.
I had to search high and low for ages before I found any sensible ones.
Are long pointy shoes okay? Or are they just silly? And why are there so many of them?
