DailyDi Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Went out to get a few more fish for the new tank and when I got home there were two unexpected packaged on my porch: A case of Bambino diapers, arrived a day early... good timing too as I am low on diapers. A pair of Nike from Zappos Okay, but props to Zappos and UPS on this one. Ordered two pairs last night around 9pm - one for me, one for mom - took the free standard shipping (4-5 days) and they got here today! Pulled up the tracking number and found within 3 hours they had packed and shipped them - submitting them directly to the UPS facility, and four hour later they had traveled from Kentucky in time to make this morning delivery truck! After my recent experience with Fedex I am VERY impressed! ... and me loves the shoes! Link to comment

BBB Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Zappos is really good about shipping. Link to comment
Guest lilme Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 It's funny, the most comfortable pair of shoes I ever bought were a pair of nikes. But the most durable shoes I ever bought are the 20 dollar cheapos ya never heard of before lol. Nike shoes are sooooo comfortable but so cheap. I never understood how you can pay 60-80 bucks for name brand shoes and they start falling apart in less than 6 months. Whenever I buy those cheapos though, they last forever almost. I am totally convinced when it comes to name brand shoes, the only thing you are paying for is the name, definately not quality. Yet I continue to buy a pair every now and then ROFL.. so comfy. Nikes ussually have the kind of arch support I'm looking for. Just wish they weren't so cheap. Again though, nice shoes ~lilme Link to comment
LILJIM Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 My brother liked the leather Nikes latest him a year at least.(working as fixer in a cotton mill) Link to comment

LuvsGurl Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Zappos all the way. Their prices, selection and service can't be beat. We don't shop for shoes in regular stores anymore. 1 Link to comment

BBB Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I currently am using Adizero XT shoes.... I love them, I only wish that Zappos had the color combo I want, so I could get another pair. Literally the best shoes I've ever owned. Had them for a year, and they still look brand new... Which is pretty impressive for a pair of trail runners. Link to comment
sarah_ab Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 always always order the free shipping on zappos because they ALWAYS send it overnight for free!!! we do it all the time Link to comment

With the Big Brands like Nike, Adidas, what you pay for is the Name, & logo & appearance of the Shoe, rather than support, cushioning & how long it last. If you are looking for a Brand of Shoe that has Arch Support, Have you heard of or Tried the Brand Asics? In my opinion they have Fantastic Arch Support, & they Last & are worth their cost as Well. They Cost $100.00, & the Series that I would recommend & that I wear myself is the GT-2150's soon to be updated with this years Model Asics GT-2160. Rockies Fan. Go Rockies in 2011! Link to comment
willnotwill Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Almost all my shoes are velcro because I haven't learned to tie them yet. Usually I wear Brooks Addiction Walkers but if it's really cold I've got some LL Bean Velcro thinsulate boots. I gave up Zappos. Shoebuy.com is regularly cheaper. Link to comment
