Goodbye Kitty, Hello Keens

I've mentioned our outdoor experience, haven't I? It was awesome, but the thing is, by the end of the first day I was in pain. It seems my Hello Kitty rain boots don't offer a whole lot of support. Fortunately, I have this nifty little unit. I attached it to my low back and lived with it through the night. By the next day I was better, but realized that if we're going to continue this crazy outdoor nature thing adventure, I need better shoes.

I turned to my Facebook friends for suggestions and ended up at REI. That place ROCKS! If you haven't been, you must go check it out. The sales clerk helped me find the perfect shoes for me, my first pair of Keens! Oh. My. Gosh. They are so comfortable. Our trek with the Lizard King to the Wildlife Refuge was pain free! Yippee!!

Now head on over to our Wardrobe Wednesday sponsor, Aliceson at Feet Off the Table, to see what all the cool kids are wearing.

    Excellent! Those look so much more sensible than a pair of rubber boots for hiking around in the wilderness.

    Yes, Aliceson...I'm becoming much more sensible as I grow older....er, wiser.

    SMT, I have to agree. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn!

    I've never even heard of Keens. Then again, I don't own a pair of tennis shoes or proper winter boots. I shoveled snow recently wearing Crocs.
