All loafers. Cole Hahns look good, but are seriously uncomfortable. I've had Børns and loved them, but the last two pairs came apart after 2-3 months (I walk hard).
The Rockports are super-comfortable....should I just accept that I'm an old man and go with them. They seem like such a geriatric brand.

Why does she need 3 pairs of the same shoe?

I thought you were starting this thread to complain until I realized that im actually the one complaining about your wife instead.

Wear whatever the closeted gay men on the OT tell you to wear.

To pick out a pair and take the rest back. She's a pretty good wife like that.

I really like rockports very comfortable and usually hold up for a long time. I currently have several pairs still in good condition between 4-1 years. For about 100 bucks they don't look too bad either.

I have tried all of those that you mention and finally wised up and settled on the rockports, too.

what tipped the scale for me was that I thought about it and honestly couldn't remember even once noticing what kind of shoes another man was wearing.

Take those Cole Hans back. They are overpriced shite since Nike bought them out. I went through 3 pair in less than a year, wearing them in a carpeted office every day.

Comfort-wise , I'm partial to Skechers. But I don't let my wife pick them out for me.

Seriously. How about going to the store and trying them on instead of abusing return policies?
