1. They look comfortable...
And not boring, necessarily. Depends on what you're wearing with them.

3. Don't you tend to wear a lot of long skirts?
If so, I wouldn't worry about what was on my feet.
Also, those are great shoes for pants. I would wear them to work. I'm anti-heel.

9. Nah
Depending on how they feel/fit, I would probably wear them to work.

I just got a pair of *WRESTLING BOOTS* to wear to work. It's hilarious. I love them.

10. They look fine.
A nice classic design that will work well with pants or
skirts. Not super exciting but, a good looking, classic
styled, perfectly functional shoe.
It is all about how they feel when you wear them. :)

Personally, I dress for comfort not for speed. :P

15. After years of wearing heels, I have destroyed my feet.
I now dress for comfort. I love my Reeboks.

21. miraculously, my feet are about the only thing on me
that doesn't need a wide size :bounce:

Thanks. I'm going to look them up. Of course, I have a higher priority for a pair of running shoes right now, but after that....

22. No - cute and stylish
they'll go well with a skirt as opposed to jeans.

23. That depends on what you were them with.
If you're trying to look like a corporate hottie, they're perfect. :)

26. I think they're a very nice update of a classic Mary Jane
The detailing on the leather and the fact that they're brown, not black patent leather, is what makes them cute. I'd buy them.

34. I think they're cute
I'd like to find something like that - I love heels but like you, my knees don't let me wear them too long. :grr:

Those look comfortable and cute - so many flats or near-flats look like old-lady shoes.

36. To some of us, there are few things more exciting
I don't even know why but shoe shopping is one of my life's greatest pleasures.

38. They look practical.
Some of the footwear I see women wearing leaves me to ask "Why?". But that's not my business. If they feel better about themselves all the power to them.
