Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.
About ten years back I found a pair of running shoes that were just perfect. I have owned many similar pairs during my running career. The running companies in the search to reduce costs, discontinue running shoes for a newer model.
And I haven’t found a pair I like since.
I do have a pair of slippers I am attached to. There is a little shop in Mainz that carries them. I reach for these slippers first thing in the morning much like a habitual cigarette smoker. They take me to work and to my office. And for some reason I am not wearing them today. I miss them.
The German word for slipper is Hausschuhe, which means house shoe. I just ran upstairs and retrieved my Hausschuhue and all is right with the world.








I would love to hear you opinion as well
