    Sadly, they are moving production of their Z/1 and Z/2 sandals to china this year

    They seem to be one of the few companies who make shoes that can be repaired/resoled. I'll probably try them (assuming they fit me well) when it comes time to replace my current pair of sport sandals. Too bad they couldn't keep production in the USA though.

    Opined is an "interesting" word.

    Yes, I know she opined, but I was a little dismayed at the moralistic tone this question evoked.
    Can you tell I love to shop? But, because I wear unusual sizes in both clothing and shoes, my shopping obsession is often curtailed. I bought a really nice pair of Dansko dress shoes at almost half off from STP. Alas, they are still too big on me, even in a size 5.5. In fact, this made me think that I will not buy shoes on line again, unless I already have that brand/style and I know they fit me.
    I hate having to go to UPS to return.

    Gotta go ride, it's 75 out!

    Most of my leather work shoes have been repaired or resoled at least once, so I at get a lot of life out of them. My more athletic shoes die an earlier death for one reason or another.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
