Not good for endless city walking situations though as they eventually bother my Achilles (probably as my feet swell over the day). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238529 Thu, 01 May 2014 03:51:00 +0000 rae 1238529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!

I wonder if they're the ones Anna had bad luck with. :-/ But seeing your loafers makes me wonder if I should have gotten shoes, not boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238176 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 22:48:35 +0000 Beth Ann 1238176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gotta love a loafer with studs.&nbsp; Very different, but still practical. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238159 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 22:35:06 +0000 Marmee 1238159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are fabulous shoes! &nbsp;Very you. &nbsp;So how did the jammie jeans look after washing? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238155 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 22:30:51 +0000 Lyn D. 1238155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can see why!<br />My similar ones have been worn lots too- black does have a way of going with most. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238132 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 21:55:04 +0000 catgirl 1238132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Gryffin!

Just sounded like these would be a long term love and having the "spare" allows you to really enjoy them without thoughts of rationing or making them precious!! Otoh, I really think the soles are worth the bother, but you know best!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238113 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 21:26:30 +0000 jackiec 1238113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very hip indeed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238054 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 20:35:52 +0000 dustt 1238054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>my cobbler has installed a thin rubber grippy that is hardly noticeable on several pair of thinner soled leather shoes and the heel as well.&nbsp; If the sole is black no one will ever see it and as an added bonus you'll get to dart around like a super hero!! - </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238053 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 20:34:59 +0000 fuzzylogic 1238053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with you, AG! Shoes are for wearing! That's how you know<br /> you chosen a winning pair!<br /> I do agree with gryffin and Joy, though- get a protective rubber sole and it will add months of wear to a shoe! Do I sound like your mother yet....? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238049 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 20:27:18 +0000 Anonymous 1238049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe a cobbler can resolve these beauties for you before they wear out. They look worth it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238036 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 20:05:13 +0000 catgirl 1238036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha! Gryffin! I like these but I will not perish if they disintegrate (after appropriate CPW!). That is my new standard for duplicating. And on that note I am keeping the second pair of Rag &amp; Bone pants. I had a panic attack a la Linus Van Pelt when they were in the wash yesterday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238031 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 19:58:50 +0000 deb 1238031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So cool!

I had a pair of BCBG boots resoled, and all in, it was less than $50. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1238001 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 19:21:34 +0000 rachylou 1238001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those *are* a great pair of shoes.</p> <p>!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unexpected-shoe-workhorse#post-1237982 Wed, 30 Apr 2014 19:07:47 +0000 catgirl 1237982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These Allsaints slip on loafers have become an unexpected workhorse. They are easy to wear and have he edge I want but the practicality of a black shoe. I just hope the soles hold up as they seem a bit flimsy for the price! Anna mentioned that her boots fell apart... </p>
