I always thought shoes were inanimate objects. Unless you are Hammer.

I agree with Ecco's. More comfortable than my normal shoes. Wear really well.

Johnston and Murphy make a good mid-range shoe. If you want a little better, go

Rubber Sole shoes wear out way too fast though

I guess I'm cheap. I couldn't ever spend that kind of money for shoes.

On dress shoes? Tough to get a good pair of dress shoes for less than $100.

The Dude Abides

Uhhh $100 is nothing for a pair of dress shoes.
