      Am I the only one that finds it ridiculous that, essentially, a basic chuck lined with Gore-Tex is going for $500?

      No

            I could think of much worse uniform requirements to have.

                          I don't generally share Seul's taste in footwear, but in this case I'm solidly on his side…

                            so if i'm right Seul and Chris are both saying that Paula a.k.a. MADame UNbuttonfly is a kid with no style when it comes to footwear?

                              Agreed! And if you HAVE to wear 'em did your place of work supply them discounted?

                                Exactly.
                                🙂

                                I suppose I should clarify- I detest Chuck Taylors, always have.  I've never owned a pair, never even bothered to try a pair on.  However, what other people choose to wear is their call.  I try to refrain from making negative public statements about fashion, since it's a completely subjective field and diversity of opinion is what makes life interesting.

                                Having said all that, I made an ill advised choice on which post to quote.  My comment was more in agreement that being required to wear Chucks is pretty unfortunate.  If I was interested in a job and that was part of the uniform, I wouldn't even apply.  Chuck Taylors are a deal killer for me.

                                Oh, and Paula is always lovely, regardless of what she wears.  She should know I think so, too, since I've tried to chat her up a few times…:)

                                  That's hatred right there!

                                      Yes.  Yes, it is.

                                      About the only other footwear that I dislike as much are Clark's desert boots and boots with a white wedge sole. I also really dislike moc toes on boots.  Which puts me at odds with about 95% of the folks on this forum and SuFu, but I recognize that I'm in the minority, so I try to keep quiet and move on to commenting about things I do like.

                                            Like I said, diversity of opinion is what makes the world interesting.
                                            As long as we can discuss those differences calmly, rationally and with respect for one another, everything is good.
