Has anyone heard of these?

Our friends Jenni and Paul have a shoe shop in Towcester and I noticed on FB today they're advertising these and for the first time I've actually looked at sandals and thought oooh I like them. :D

I spend my life either in flip flops or Converse but at the grand old age of 60 fancy a sandal. :lol:

I like the red style in the background and the mustard style at the front.

I like them, I’d go for a red pair I think :Hi:

I know a few years ago they were the casual sandal of choice for middle class women along with Boden Breton tops and cut off chinos.

I think I read once that you should wear them in water for 10 minutes so that they mould to your foot shape.

Me and middle class do not belong in the same sentence. Ever. :lol: :lol:

I like the red ones, but I think the mustard ones look like men’s sandals. Never heard of them either.

Oh right. :D

Jenni and Paul's shop is in the Sponne shopping centre.

It's called 'zap and toes' which is a play on the Spanish for shoes zapatos. :D

Paul lived over here for about 6 years so that's his wee nod to Spain. :lol:

Jenni was a critical care nurse in Milton Keynes for many years but always had a dream of owning her own shoe shop! Random but true. :lol:

They're very happy there.
