As I have probably mentioned before, my feet are awful. They are wide, they are mismatched lengths, and my pinky toes are cockeyed.
But yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting with Sandra Gault, owner and creator of True Gault shoes. She put me on a fancy schmancy digital scanner to measure my feet. It was no surprise that one foot was nearly 2 European sizes different from the other, but for her company that is no big deal.
How can it be no big deal? They are going to custom make my shoes! That’s what they do. I will admit that I balked at the $350 price tag for a pair of flats, but Sandra assured me that they will be the most comfortable shoes I ever own.
We shall see. I am hopeful, but highly skeptical. I have never had a comfortable pair of shoes. Let alone fancy shoes.
I placed my order today… it says delivery mid-February so I will keep you all posted!!!!
Also, it was flipping awesome that the owner of the company was the one to meet me, introduce me to their company and measure my foot and give me style advice. So 100 bonus points to Ravenclaw for that! (How could she not be Ravenclaw, combining technology and fashion to make such pretty shoes?!
Love you all, and I hope to be posting more!
