I agree completely.

They were big for our swim and surf teams in high school, but other than that, this Uggs with shorts is a new phenomenon to me.

I want a pair for the winter. I hate it when my feet are cold. You'd never catch me wearing them with shorts.

Uggs were designed to be worn post-surfing and beach going in Australia. They ARE beach shoes.

I can so see wearing them when it's cold. My 'snow' boots don't look like 'snow' boots and I'll wear them when it's cold and raining.

I can see wearing them after surfing/beach~warm up the feet.

The only reason I wouldn't give the kids a hard time for wearing them with a uniform would be on the very cold days. But, I am not hip on uniforms.

I would think, though, if those girls are walking a lot outside and need the warmth, that the shoes might be clunky and they should wear more comfortable walking shows with tights/leggings, etc. Just my opinion.

I'm not a fan of the shape of "Vans" (or like shoes) so they don't appeal to me. I like the print, however.

I agree with NA on both points.

I'll make you feel better. I want metallic leather Kork Ease sandals.

Well, I was gonna.

Then I saw these lovelies at bluefly.com:

Cole-Haan, currently $99 but they were about $82 when I ordered. They came today and, swanky ones, they make the feet look teensy weensy.

Now all I need is sandals weather. Currently, it's snowing here.

I need new work shoes. I like my work shoes, but they've always been 1/2 a size too big and I'm noticing that I'm having more and more foot pain because I'm always wearing either my work shoes or ballet flats. So I need to wear my sneakers more, but I also need well-fitting work shoes. Black oxford style works for me.

What do you think I should use, Sketchers? My "old" work shoes that I replaced were Sketchers boots and they lasted me years. I'd still use them but they're a bit small now (opposite problem from my current shoes)

Skechers used to have a style I liked- just like the black Oxford. I haven't looked lately if they still have it; they discontinued it and I started buying a similar style from KMart.

I'm hoping Skechers brings back that style. I really liked it.
