Losing a shoe in public (guys only)

Shoe stretching

Posted by One Shoe on 2017-03-22 16:35:30

I wore my new Johnston & Murphy oxfords to work today for the first time. At the end of the day, my left shoe was still feeling stiff & snug so I stopped at the mall on the way home. I went in to the store and told the clerk how it was feeling - he said it could be stretched out but would take a couple hours. While I was contemplating what to do, he suggested that I could leave it with him and go do some shopping and eat. Since my foot was uncomfortable, I took my shoe off and gave it to him. I then walked out of the store and spent the next 2 hours walking around the mall wearing one shoe. I had navy dockers with a light blue polo shirt, had a dark brown oxford on my right foot and a just a thin navy blue with pink heel/toe sock on my left foot. The sock matched my navy dockers but the pink toe made my shoe-less foot quite noticeable. I think he enjoyed keeping my shoe and watching me walk out in my socked foot. May need to go back and see about getting my other shoe stretched.
