Refinement runs on a continuum with Chunky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/born-in-heaven-shooties#post-1023600 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 14:04:09 +0000 pil 1023600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These don't look too clumpylandish to me. I mean I wouldn't wear them to a wedding, but if they are filling a need for you AND are comfortable - all the better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/born-in-heaven-shooties#post-1023597 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 14:00:44 +0000 Nicole D 1023597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I google imaged them and I actually like the silhouette. &nbsp;I think they are in keeping with the menswear trend. &nbsp;Comfort is verrrry important.&nbsp; What colour did you get? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/born-in-heaven-shooties#post-1023583 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 13:36:59 +0000 Sona 1023583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>we need pics.</p> <p>and I am on the floor laughing at your clever title!!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>:)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/born-in-heaven-shooties#post-1023581 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 13:25:48 +0000 unfrumped 1023581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been trying to focus more refined but comfortable footwear that I can wear for long days. Have in mind all the parameters and everything. </p> <p> I tried on some Born shooties--one style was more tapered ( no points for pointy- ness, though) and felt ok but a little too confining.</p> <p>Then I saw the Rissa, not even a new<br /> style. As soon as I put it on, my feet started singing the Hallelujah chorus.<br /> They are a bit chunky, they are only almond toe, the toe box is deep and there is a bit of that Born uptoe thing.<br /> But my feet voted and now these are in my closet. </p> <p>The good news is that they push out several pairs of other shoes - shooties<br /> ( as in Una's purge post) that I was alternating because each had slight fit problems for my fussy feet, and/ or more square toe, etc. And they have a 1-1/2- 2" heel( depending on how you measure) which is how i was hemming my newer trousers on a leap of faith that i could maintain PPL's there. They help<br /> me see that if a shoe though a bit<br /> clunky is SO comfortable, then that fills a spot in my shoe capsule for the go- to item for difficult days.<br /> I also realized that at heart I like the less confining shootie over a boot( gasp). Absolutely will still buy and wear short boots, but I like the ankle freedom. </p> <p>Does this mean I'm hopelessly stuck in<br /> Clumpy land? I can still use work footwear that is not 12-hour worthy but each of those has to earn its keep by<br /> filling a very specific outfit/ capsule need. Instead I think it's focusing my<br /> shoe capsule on getting the best items<br /> In each category. </p>
