Gryffin, I think it's because I work from home. So I wear them most of the time and don't get to wear my nicer shoes. If I worked outside the home like you and put these on when I came home (and on weekends) they would be absolutely perfect and I wouldn't mind them, because in other ways they can't be beat. Yours was a terrific recommendation. The comfort and support for my foot is divine.
OH -- and here is where you get to chuckle at me -- I SHOULD HAVE ordered them in black!! I got them in what I thought was burgundy but turned out to be more of a soft rust. It's not an awful colour, but I'm sure the black would have felt more sophisticated. So my next pair (and yes, there WILL BE a next pair) will be black or charcoal if such exists.
I also want to put another word in for the Uggs that Parsley showed. I ordered those to try last year as well and almost kept them - - they were absolutely gorgeous high quality slippers and I loved the tan colour I got as well as the navy she is showing. The only problem for me is that they would not stay on my feet due to my narrow heels. Otherwise, they were perfect.
