Day Three- And finally found ONE thing I don't like about my Z :)

I got tired of buying crocodile boots every 3 months. So now I wear tennis shoes all the time. No matter what you buy it will wear down your footwear.

Well that's a bummer...but a small price to pay, I guess. My shoes are inexpensive flip flops but I am really not digging walking around with a black spot on my heel....lol

frost · 09-29-2009, 09:15 PM

lol, totally not what I was expecting. I guess just buy more black shoes.

I only drive in certain shoes, though they are my normal casual shoes (80% of the time). When I go to work I drive in them and change when at my office, I had to go to some event a few weeks ago and it was in the high 90s here so I wore flip flops. I hated it so much, I took them off of course to drive but the feel of the pedals and my feet was just...wrong.

Side note, you might want to use the Signature feature rather than have to copy paste

LOL, I've become a Chuck Taylor/John Varvatos whore, high tops, own 4 pairs now

Chuck Taylors, the classic lives on.

Try these

Piloti - Prototipo

Piloti's

Nick911sc · 09-29-2009, 10:47 PM

Cmon for $40 bucks you can't beat the chucks for driving! Pedal feel is amazing!

Sure beat the Puma's I have!

Piloti's are nice as well. But I can't just order shoes because I am forced to wear orthodics due to flat feet so buying shoes is a hassle for me.

Ya busted me...I'm still trying to figure it out. I'll work on that

I most of the time don't think I need one but then I see everyone else's and I feel left out!

:::slinking away to go figure out how to get a signature:::

so back a few years 5-6 years ago, I had a Suzuki Alstare Limited Edition, at one point I thought about buying matching shoes, but after thinking it over, EHHHHHHHHH---some gay thought it was...I never bought the shoes:

the shoes were something that looked like this:

I just felt like I wanted to post about *something* on my new car..and so far I don't have anything to complain about except for that! I realize I'm in the minority here on this board, with my age and my gender LOL...my posts may always seem a bit "off"

Nobody will probably believe me, but back in the day...(think: 89ish) my husband had a GSX-R and I had a Ninja 600R. I just saw this picture and it reminded me of the good ole days.

It might have been 90-91ish...That makes me seem a bit less old.

PICS of your black foot!

I'm sure this problem will turn out to be a "girl thing"

The rest of the car is FABULOUS

Sandals for driving? - DANGER WILL ROBINSON! I tried driving in my steel toed work boots - not a good idea. I make sure I use shoes that are appropriate for driving in regardless of the threat of being locked up ;P ....

I only wore steel toed combat boots during the day and sandals by night for 4 years when I was in the military. :S
