I just bought some Duckfeet boots for these flippers, and I can’t help but love them. I love the colour and the comfort, and there’s so much room for toes.
All of my shoes are either dying or not fitting well, and because adulting and becoming more environmentally conscious, I wanted good quality shoes that will last and can be resoled.
I’m still a bit conscious that they are not shaped like a “regular” shoe and that I’ll stand out, but I’m at the age now where I’m saying more “Who cares, and if they do, why do their opinions matter?”
"Marble"y pattern isn’t as prominent now after I’ve conditioned them, but they’re still pretty and cute… 👉👈
I know, that’s one of the things that caught my eye, the stitching. The website says they are “traditional European Veldtschoen construction and precise double stitching.” I’ve heard so many good things about these boots so I decided to drop the money and just gift myself a pair. Same here - I’ve also got big, wide feet (size 10-11 depending on brand and style). Great for swimming, not great for finding shoes that fit well.
Just looked up the Thursday Boot Company… I’m really liking the stitching on some of them, wow! Here in Australia, Red Wings only seem to mostly do boots and shoes for work, no heels… But I am atrocious with heels. I can just look at a pair and my ankles roll!
