My Walking Partner, My Espadrilles

I was using them in high school, and when I was in college, a very close friend influenced me again to use espadrilles. Then it went out of trend, and I used different footwear that I felt comfortable with, but nothing beats the comfort that espadrilles gave me.

And now, it is back. The moment I saw one, I desperately asked a guy where he bought his pair, and I was awed at the many espadrilles a certain store here in our place displayed, which he pointed.

I bought one from the husband's office mate, but it took her time to deliver the pair I ordered, and so I have to wait. Until last December, the husband surprised me with my blue pair, and it never left my feet whenever I go out. But then again, since I am working in a government office with a color-coding uniform I have to conform to, I have to wear some close pair with heels, to which I am really not fond of, but have to. But yes, I still love my espadrilles and use it when I go out, even during free days in the office when I am free to wear tee shirts, which I love very much!

Yesterday, a good friend gave me a pair of maroon espadrilles! Yay! I just love the new pair, it feels so comfortable to my feet, and I can alternately use both whenever I feel like using it. The espadrilles are originally from Spain, and I dunno why, but I just love them. If there's one you'd call a comfort food, I'd call my espadrilles the "comfort walking partner".


What about you? What footwear do you love to wear and feel comfortable walking with?

i've never worn an espadrille, but they look comfy. i wear sneakers on my way to work, then change into my work shoes at the office. no heels for me as i don't feel comfortable with them.
