Dear Everyone Who Makes Shoes,

I want plain black athletic shoes. Or tennis shoes, whatever you want to call them. Heck, Skechers, I'll settle for plain black biking shoes with laces. But you don't want to sell me these. You refuse to stock styles. You refuse to stock my SIZE. I do not want men's shoes, because they are wide. I end up with black shoes without real laces with charcoal stripes. It's close, but it is still incredibly frustrating.

WHY? WHY are there so many white athletic shoes for women? What the hell? Why in the world would I want white tennis shoes? They'll get dirty and also look stupid with my black pants.

So I end up with black cylcist shoes and brown semi-athletic shoe things...well they have laces, they're lightish weight, and they have some support. They're not featherweights or anything (no solid black featherweights at.all. I would have walked out of the store with some even though they would have cost $10 more but noooo....)

I hate shopping for shoes.

Love,
Df

I actually really like Skechers because they tend to run narrower than other brands, and unlike my most of my family I have narrow feet. And they used to have some really sharp all black styles. And they have a store at the Mills. But it's so unreliable!

I didn't even bother trying to pick something out for this stupid wedding in stupid April.

annoyances, shopping
