I don’t know about you, but the old saying “When you have children, the days are long but the weeks/months/years are short” is SO true for me. Some mornings I wake up to screaming and fighting and I think, “Is it bed time yet?” but then all of a sudden I have times like right now where I think, “Is it really almost June? When did that happen?!” (which is when my husband would say “About 29 days ago!”). So here we are, one week closer to Father’s Day. Have you figured out what you want to get your favorite man this year? Well, here’s another great company for you to consider for your hubby/dad/brother: Hey Dude Shoes.
Hey Dude Shoes has perfected the art of comfortable, cool shoes for men. They designed their shoes to be the lightest on the market and to be the most comfortable shoe possible. According to their website, their shoes only weigh 150 grams, which for us American folk is about 1/3 of a pound! That’s almost as light as a 1/4 Pounder with Cheese from McDonald’s! But they’re not flimsy; their “Flex & Fold Technology” ensures that the insole and outsole of each shoe gives proper support and flexibility to prevent injury and improve posture. Â But enough talk about how great they are, check out the designs:
These Vinci Shoes in Blue are super stylin’. They give a whole new meaning to the Elvis song “Blue Suede Shoes.” Definitely don’t step on these bad boys!
I LOVE boat shoes. I actually have a pair myself, so it’s no surprise I’m attracted to these Fluo Chocolate Rivas. I’ll admit, they are a bit flashy, but look how well this guy pulls them off with a pair of jeans. And they’re just so cool.
The pair that I was sent was the Wally in Chocolate. True to their claim, my husband says they are totally comfortable and light. They only come in whole sizes and he normally wears a 10 1/2, but he was just fine with the size 10. Each pair of shoes comes with a pair of elastic laces so the shoes can be slip-ons and an extra set of hard laces for those who are anti-slip-on. He normally wears shoes with socks, so going barefooted was weird for him, but still comfortable.
He looks almost as good as the models in his shoes, don’t you think? 🙂 The shoes look good with shorts, jeans or khakis, so they’re totally versatile.
I love their collection of men’s shoes, and at $40-$100, they’re not a bad deal, either. For now they don’t have a Women’s collection, but it says one is coming soon, so I’m keeping my eyes peeled and will definitely be checking it out once it’s available. But for today, one lucky winner will receive the same shoe I received, the Wally in Chocolate, as part of our giveaway.
Enter to win a pair of Hey Dude Shoes!
** This giveaway is open to U.S. entries only.

Summertime!

Right now I’m dreaming of warmer days and time spent on the boat:
It’s going to be here eventually, right? Â Please say it is. Â Can you believe we has snow flakes falling last week??? Â Sure they didn’t last long and sure they didn’t stick, but just the sight of them sent shivers up my spine. Â Plus, it was just toooooo cold outside! Â That might have induced the shivering… Â But seriously there shouldn’t even be the mention of the word snow in late April. Â We shouldn’t have to be using our fireplace either. Â April is supposed to be the time of rain showers to bring those May flowers, but the temperatures are supposed to still be in at least the 60’s!!!
So I’m ready to welcome in the humid St. Louis summer. Â Bring it. Â After our horrible winter and “spring” I’m actually looking forward to ushering in the heat. Â (Don’t ask me my feelings on this in August. Â We will just pretend that I love the humidity. Â Even then.) Â For now I can dream of the warmer days spent playing outdoors with these monkeys,
and wearing my flip-flops and shoes without socks again!
But what’s a gal to do when the toes just don’t plead for the flip-flops? Â Sometimes they ache for the support! Â And the wearing of shoes without socks… Â Well, who wants to ruin their favorite pair of shoes by sweating straight into the sole? Â Solution to both problems can be found be found below:
Give ’em pads that you can wear with flip-flops to create comfort.
See that? Â It’s a shoe insert that will keep the inside of your shoes cleaner and smelling fresh when you decide to go sock less! Â 🙂 Â Thank you Foot Petals for bringing comfort to the styles of summer!
