I needed a pair of comfortable shoes in which I can walk for long urban distances, and that had thick enough soles to keep my toes from freezing in winter - ie not my lovely Converses.
Local department store had half price FitFlops which seemed to fit the bill so I got some. But the reason why they were half price is that they're a rather appealing shade of light yellowy brown almost exactly the same colour as a 6 week old bf baby's poo.
They're a sort of suedette material (leather) with white soles. Shall I dye them? If so, what colour? Black? Dark green? Dark brown? Dark Red? Navy blue would be my first choice but I don't think it will work.
And apologies to those who are offended the the very mention of FitFlops in S&B, I just thought you lot would be most likely to have the answer.
