My granddaughter's fifteenth birthday is coming up in a few days,
#33 Chara Yellow, so I thought a day of shopping and grandmother/granddaughter bonding would be just the ticket for this fine Saturday morning. As I started the van, I asked her, "Ok. This is your day; where to?"
"GearHead." She responded without hesitation. Since before Christmas she had been talking about a particular pair of shoes that were to die for!'-in a direct quote. I had spent several days running here and there to different stores trying to help her find them for Christmas but with no luck. Everyone was sold out. Now these must be some really special shoes, I thought, as they could not be kept in stock at any of the major stores.
For someone who spends her shoe money at Walmart-and occasionally splurges at Shoe Carnival-it was hard for me to phantom a pair of shoes being so illusive. And even more so,
Jordan White Jerseys, someone being so set on one type of shoe when varieties are astronomical. I have never had a problem finding at least one pair of shoes in any given store with which I couldn't be satisfied. But that's just me and this is a young girl with her own illusion of what is in' and what is not'. There can be eons between the attire tastes of a grandmother and a teenager.
She had called GearHead and, yes, they just so happened to now have various styles and colors of the Vibram Fivefinger in stock. So,
Jordan Red Jerseys, off we go to Jonesboro to visit the new Turtle Creek Mall and find just the right pair of $80-plus shoes that apparently have individual compartments for the five individual appendages of each foot-will wonders never cease,
maillol moncler! Here is a pic of what I purchased just in case you're like me and are stupefied by this phenomenon of Well,
we found the shoes; she found just the right style; then found just the perfect color and spent forty-five minutes getting them on her feet. She will now be getting up an hour earlier just to get her shoes on before going to school!!! All this and for the mere cost of $80.00 plus tax. The world has certainly changed since my mother took me shopping for school shoes. My granddaughter says they're very comfortable-for that I will take her word. I must say they do look like they would be great for rock-climbing or-tree climbing? They say they are like walking barefoot with protection. They exercise more muscles in the feet than regular hard-sole shoes; which makes sense. Maybe looks don't mean everything?
Science is a wonderful thing and I am always fascinated by each new invention, but with this particular product I think I'll stick with my slip-on flip-flops or Velcro tenny's,
#26 Wheeler, thank you very much,
#30 Thomas Yellow Ice Hockey Jerseys, and leave the indelible Fivefinger Vibram to the more flexible athletic types.
