Problem? What problem? 😉
“Ok, I give up, Mom. What’s the point of this game?” -Mayhem
Having only black shoes simplifies life so much! And, obviously, I love my Keens…
However, the La Jolla Clogs in the upper right corner (clogs made from interlaced leather strips) don’t love my feet – purportedly they’re the same size as the rest of my Keens, but they’re actually a bit shorter. So if a mens US size 9 (European 42) is just a titch too long for you, let’s talk. They’re very metrosexual! (The La Jollas found a new home.)
If any of you come across a pair of womens size 11 Providence Clogs (black), please let me know right away! They’re the pair in the lower right corner – my first pair of Keens and my favorite pair of shoes ever.
So, are all your pocket books/handbags and belts black, as well?
In a previous life, All my accessories had to match 😉
Well, I guess you’ll never go out with 2 different color shoes on 🙂
hey, i’m a US men’s 9 which i wear for the width more for length.
i think you need a pair of red shoes.
I feel way so much better! So I saw a pair of the keen slides (at about 7 o’clock in your pic) recently and thought I might want them. Do they stay on your feet pretty well? I want a shoe that I can just slide on but that will stay on when I walk over uneven terrain, so basically the easy on/off of an open clog, but the stability of a hiking boot! (any suggestions???)
It’s spring. Time for some color!
WE HAVE YOU SURROUNDED!!! WE KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN DEALING CATNIP.
The Keen Queen! hee hee. I think you and I ought to see if there is some sort of benefit program for all of these Keens we’ve been selling ‘through our blogs’ by constantly talking about how much we love our Keen shoes!! I’m in the process of saving up for a colorful pair (all of mine are black as well) for summer.. probably the Mystic or the Carmel. I usually chicken out though with the bright colors (have you seen the new orange? Wow!)though and go with ‘basic black’ to be practical.
I once took in 4 pair of shoes to be repaired. The guy at the counter said…they all look alike! No, they didn’t…they were all black but some had ties, some were slip-ons or buckles. I believe in the power of black shoes;-)
Ahh Keens, how they love me feet and my gimpy titanium gate. This was a beautiful post. I see a pair I have too. *sniff* Just lovely.
Accordiny to Mayem, it’s 10 minutes before 2 – but is it AM or PM?
So, have you ever gone out with mis-matched shoes? I actually have a few of those style – but I like the colored ones.
The cat looks a bit creeped out.
Mmmmm, Keens! They’re my favorites, too — I have picky, problematic feet, and they’re almost the only brand of shoe that doesn’t make me limp.
Talk about simplifying your life!
🙂
I see no problem here! I love Keen’s too. Can’t help you on the shoes though.
There’s a problem?!! Heh, I wish I had the size 9 feeties, but I’m a teeny size 6.5…
Poor May looks stressed…
Hmmmm….. but how do you choose which style?
I have several pairs of pink shoes…
I received my pair of Keens for mother’s day last year and have been the only shoes I wear – pre-kids – my coach pumps and heels – post-kids – Keens
Chris- You need to get out of the comfort zone- and maybe try another color of Keens.
I heard that if it matches nothing- it matches everything.
Live a little!
Dude.
Even I don’t have that many pairs of shoes.
Seek help.
🙂
love the shoes 🙂
I have more black in my closet than anything else.
Now that is a cool picture. REally only black. Not any brown. I pretty much stick to black with an occassional brown, and my tennis shoes.
Ha Ha Ha! I’m laughing at Deb’s excellent comment.
I wear exactly one (1) pair of shoes when I’m wearing socks. DUDE. Mine are black though… Dansko 40s. Hmm, time to check the dansko outlet 😉
LOL. As long as we’re not talking about pink shoes and purses, then I see nothing wrong with black ones!
Black shoes are my standby too… except for Keens, though. I’m tempted by the Mystic in Ruby Wine.
Color!
Wow! I’ve never seen so many ugly shoes in one spot. 😉
Attack of the Killer Keens!
teaching May the finer points of shoes – good mama.
Nice shoe collection 🙂 I love the one pair of Keens I found in the US!
I could post a like picture of my Keens collection but then Knitting Hubby (who only owns one pair) would know how many pairs I really own!
Have you looked on eBay? I got a brand-new pair of Dansko clogs for $45.
Alas, my foot is much smaller than yours. Otherwise I’d jump all over the offer of free shoes. yes, I am a shoe ho…..
I love my Keens. (Just one pair so far.) You have a great collection there. All very nice, too, makes me want to go shoe shopping!
I’m laughing at furiousball. Perfect!
Those Mary Jane’s are sweet.
Now I know how you pick which pair to wear:
Spin The Kitty!
Round and round she goes, where she lands, nobody knows….
I would be interested in these Keens you speak of. I bleave they would fit my lovely duck like feets. I love the idea of a kitty/shoe clock. 2 lovely things all in one.
good grief woman buy a few more pairs why don’t ya!
There must be a Keen commercial in there somewhere. At least you don’t have to worry about what color of shoes you’ll wear. (LOL at Deb’s comment!)
I swear that is my closet (only messier, and there are no Keens). All black shoes too.
I am seriously green with shoe envy…
I have never owned a pair of Keens, but I’ve come close, and I am certain it’s only a matter on time.
I almost went to the Keen store at the Albertville Outlet Mall, but I had just spent way too much at Hanna Andersson’s… stinking outlet malls, too much temptation…
FYI- I’ve got a new seasonal knitting goals contest running until midnight on the first day of spring!
Happy knitting-
ali
Oh, Chris. What you are missing out on with shoes… Of course, the yarn and book budget might suffer!
Never had heard of Keens, but I see that REI carries them and we’re members here. I’ve been pretty much an exclusive Birkie kinda gal….but I may have to check those out. I love the wide front, my Peculiar Toes refuse to be squoze, and I concur.
I simply love that picture 😉 I can almost hear the confused mewing…
My favorite shoes are black Ecco’s (I wear a pair out every year)… best shoes ever!!! (in my world at least)
Awesome picture. She looks trapped. LOL. I have mostly black shoes too. It’s easy to pick out your outfit that way. “Hm. What goes with black. Oh yeah, EVERYTHING.”
Wow, I thought I had alot of black shoes, but you have me beat.
