shoes!

I bought some shoes last night, a pair of black loafers. They look fine, but most importantly, they fit! I have a pair of low hiking boots that are a size 47, they fit fine width wise, but are too long. I also have a pair of size 46 shoes that are too short and too narrow. These new shoes are a 45, but in extra wide and they seem to fit just fine. They are a little tight, but new shoe tight, not OMG I can’t wear these tight. I was surprised that they had the extra width available. I’ve been told that boots of a similar quality will be hard to come by here since they are so expensive. The first pair of shoes they guy brought out fit OK, but they looked like clown shoes to me. Dress clown shoes to be sure, but still… The toe section was really accentuated, making my foot look incredibly long. I’ve seen that style around and it may work on people with small feet, but not on my enormous ones… I need a decent hiking shoe, or at least one that I don’t mind wearing in the rain and getting dirty. Guess I’ll have to hit some more stores…
