These boot/shoes are made for walking!





Kingsley is off to school camp next week but was short of solid waterproof shoes suitable for outdoor activities as she lives in runners or school shoes. Ahubby and I are firm believers in the adages that " a fast shop is a good shop" and "never pay full price for anything". We managed to achieve our mission and fill Kingsley's shoe void adhering to both principles in the space of 45 minutes this morning.


The new runners will allow the older pair to be used at camp. Great fit and even better price due to a sale saving TeamSAK $25. The brown ankle boots are full leather composition, made in Spain and fit Kingsley's long narrow feet. They were purchased from a designer children's shoe shop that S could never normally afford to enter. The lure of the word SALE gave us courage to enter. The boots were snapped up for $60 ( reduced from $180).

Just a pity Kingsley's feet are only marginally smaller than S's or we could have got an even better bargain!

Good to see that brain cancer and your treatment hasn't reduced your ability to seek out bargains! Sounds like the old S is back !!

The old S would have picked up the boots for $45 and only taken 30 minutes so not quite back to normal but getting closer everyday! Rgds, S

I'm a firm beleiver in the adage, "no shop is a good shop"...but in the case of essential items...yes, a fast shop is the next best thing!

Cute boots.
