(warning, written by female shoe maven.)
If you will be a Zen follower of the Mad Painter....that uninhibited guerilla artist we may vaguely remember from Sesame Street, then you must own these mystical shoes. The actor Paul Benedict played the Mad Painter in 10 filmed segments for painted numbers 2 thru 11, during the early 70's on this revolutionary children's show. In each skit, he wore a paint splattered doctor's coat, striped shirt, high-water pants, a black derby hat, and a pair of these exact shoes. Check out these films on YouTube to see what I am talking about! This is the reason I bought these shoes hahahahahahaha! Okay so now you know I am strange. No biggie. I follow the way of the painter. Paint washes away, shoes last forever. Much love. ;>) wink |

Can you name a more classic shoe than good ol' "Chucks" (especially black ones)? . . . I didn't think so. . .
Now, initially, you may say "Look how flimsy the material is! There is no way these will last long!" Well, my friend, then you'd be wrong. I've had my pair of "Chucks" for about 3 years now and they're still ready and rarin' to go! They've survived:
1) Being drawn on numerous times with a variety of writing utensils (I found out that nail polish remover gets rid of most of the marks and stains)
2) A puppy who loves shoes (There are a few bite marks but they're still quite wearable)
3) Being worn almost every day since I bought them . . .
I recommend these shoes for anything except for (this is the reason I only gave them four stars) when running or walking very long distances (by long distances I mean miles). The shoes have a very flat bottom which means not enough support and thus, after awhile, your feet will start to ache some. If you are looking for running shoes I'd recommend Mizunos. I own two pair of those. If you are an avid runner then they don't last very long as running shoes . . . perhaps only a year or two. However, then they become good walking shoes so the price which is, unfortunately, quite expensive is well worth it.
Peace Out,

Nice weightlifting shoe! : Powered by Amazon

Well I use these for weightlifting and they perform well. They are completely flat so it gives my feet a very stable resting place when performing squats, deadlifts and other heavy movements. Also a side benefit is that it saves my other shoes from taking the beating making them last much longer since soft shoes wear out very easy under heavy stress.
I highly recommend this shoe for lifting. |
