Frazz by Jef Mallett for May 24, 2021

I have dockers. Now I need a boat.

Get Crocs, all the hipsters do!

I havn’t wore anything but sandles in two years.

When I was almost sixteen, I’d have detailed that thing for the chance to drive.

Yep. Moved from no-name sandals & “sneakers” (& high heels, for the fancy times) to Sketchers, New Balance & “tasteful” low heels…age & a few infirmities struck me down.

Runners out there – are there different shoes for different running styles?

I’m with Frazz.

Keen Versatrails. For hiking I like their Targhee boots.

You want stupid shoes? Just look at high heels.

You want stupider? Look at higher heels!

The kid is right, those look like clown shoes.

I’m with Frazz on this one. I try not to need any “tasteful” shoes. Besides my wide-toe-box running shoes (which I seem to be wearing out regularly), I use Gore-Tex running shoes for rainy days, heavy walking shoes for the cold and boots for snow. Every now and then, they get fussy at work about running shoes, so I have a pair of “working shoes” (sensible, heavy duty).

I’ve been using New Balance walking shoes for over a decade, they’re comfortable and come in black so the only reason I wear my “real” shoes is job interviews, and other occasions where I need to wear a suit.
