This week had been tough. I witnessed a lot of goodbye-scenes this week. My dog died. A famous actor in my country died. A neighbor's granny died. And one of my favorite shoes finally came to his end.
I told you before about my rubber shoes that has holes in the sole. At the moment that shoes is currently resting in my shoe rack. This time, it's my official traveling shoes, Wallace, that finally gave up.
It's normal for me to give names to everything I own. And about two years ago, I saw a W-Brown rubber-leather stitched shoes on sale on the department store. I love sales and discounts so I immediately bought it. A regular price for W-Brown is $30 above, but I got the shoes for only $20 that time. I named it Wallace for the W in w-brown that is unknown to me. Hehe.
I own a number of shoe pairs. I use different shoes for different purposes. I own a running shoes, combat sports shoes, hiking shoes, rubber shoes for every day and traveling shoes for long day travels. This past few months, I have been busy traveling in many different locations. That is why Wallace is always the one being use among my other shoes.
I love using Wallace because he is comfortable even if I am already wearing him for the whole day. Sometimes I would stand on the bus and the floor is too hot. If I wear my rubber shoes, I will certainly feel the heat coming to my body. But whenever I wore that W-Brown, there's not even a sense of hotness from the floor.
However, 2 days ago, my dear traveling shoes finally came to his end. The soles were rift apart. It also has small holes. It can be repaired, but I chose not to have it repaired. It has served me long enough and I'm happy with it. That $20 shoes gave me the best quality a traveling shoes can give.
Well, I guess I have to replace Wallace with something new. Can you suggest a good brand of shoes for traveling?
