I've Got the Need-New-Shoes Blues

Posted on 06:00 by rendy orton
One of my pairs of black work/church shoes have reached their demise.
Sad, because I've had them for years. In fact, I think I bought them when I moved to DC four years ago.
Wow, has it already been four years?!?

Anyway...
I could put up with the heels being worn down, even past the rubber part.
The one on the right is trying to speak
But it's mid-October; winter is right around the corner.
And tonight rain was drizzling down.
Which is fine... except I could feel my right foot getting wet.

This picture shows why, and it's pretty much unacceptable for DC winter footwear.
Worn right through the ball of the foot.
At a minimum, my shoes need to keep my socks dry.

Where do you think I should go to get a new pair or two of work/church shoes?
I'm thinking I might have a quick date with DSW or Nordstrom Rack in the near future...
