    Default These boots are made for walkin'...

    So, yet again, in a feat of superhuman lack of attention, I stepped on another nail. Went right through my shoe. Stabbed me pretty good, to the point where almost my entire sole was covered with blood. Suffice to say I threw them out, they were pretty old anyway. I used to hate them because they were completely white to the point where I was blinded by looking at them in the sun, but lately I've taken a liking to them because they were older and a lot more comfy than my others.

    What was/is your favorite pair of shoes?

    Or, optionally, share personal exploits that include stepping on nails. Because I'm sure there is at least one person out there who is at least as inattentive as me.

    Thanks to Sagensyg for the sig!

    Ouch, that sounds painful. o_o
    My favorite shoes are my beat up sneakers that I wear almost every day. They've been with me everywhere!

    My favourite pair are the trainers I got for my birthday. They're mostly white with black bits and the nike logo in blue

    I've been wearing old army jumpboots when not at work for over 10 years.

    These guys, found them in a nice little place in Barcelona. They're very comfy and very nice looking.

    Currently, my gladiator sandals.

    I also love my grey ugg boots, my grey suede Steve Madden boots, my black suede flats with gold buckles on them, and my knee-high black leather riding boots.

    I dig the two pair I got this week-end. One is some strappy black heels and the other some brown flipflops. I have a pic on my phone but am lazy to bluetooth it.

    My pink-and-black checkered Vans. I've had to retire them recently since they're starting to fall apart though.

    I saw the little bit about nails through shoes. I saw the attached image image. I was disappointed.

    My favourite shoes are my DCs, but they have massive holes in the bottom so I have to buy some more. I use ribbons as laces, depending on the season etc. Christmas and Easter laces are cute.

    It's not so much the nail in the foot I'm wondering about, it's the fact that this has happened to you twice now.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    Also stood on a nail before, it wasn't a pretty sight.

    I've had my Reeboks for something like 4-5 years now. They're pretty battered now but they're the only ones I really love.
