A Product Review. Born Shoes Are Shoes with Comfort and Simple Style

The wrong pair of shoes can make your feet and legs ache, but the right pair, quickly become not only a favourite, but settle in like an old friend. My Born shoes are my old friends, and a product I would have a hard time living without.
For the most part, I buy the cheapest and very best, functional and decent shoe I can afford on my budget, but I happened to pass through Macys one time and came upon a shoe sale there. I decided to stop and look to see what they had to offer that day.
Due to a bad injury, that has long since healed, but left me with an ankle that can pop and trip me with no notice, I can't wear high heals and to be honest, I'm glad I can't.
I used to watch my mother in her high heeled shoes, graceful and elegant, but she was always coming home with painful, worn out feet. She also always seemed to have a pair of them at the shoe repair shop for snapped heels or a broken piece. It didn't matter how expensive they had been at the onset either; it always happened to her.
Of course those shoes were fun to play dress up with, because they were pretty and I wanted to be like my mother. I still have a few pairs of her more glamorous high heeled shoes in my daughter's dress up box.
My Born shoes are a step in progress for me. I would rather have comfortable feet so, I can walk a distance with no pain, than wear a fashion statement out of vanity. My Born shoes fit the bill for me and they have a certain kind of classic simple style to them too.
The shoes are hand sewn real leather and feel like a loved quality pair of shoes.
They slip on and off easily, but unlike other shoes I have owned, I don't always automatically kick off my Born shoes, since they don't cause me discomfort. My second pair of Born shoes are a slightly different design, but just as comfortable. I just haven't worn them in as much since the brown colored ones look better with more clothing colours. Because they are good quality leather, after I had worn them for awhile, they took on the shape of my foot even more and fit my feet like they were formed with me and not a manufactured mold.
