Wearing my older newer Adidas slippers
As is evident, I'm far behind in posting photos here. This batch is all from May 2022. Only almost 6 months late. But I will get caught up, some day.
Most of this batch exhibits many of my perfect shoes, perfectly or nearly perfectly worn as I like them. The warm weather also has me often wearing rubber footwear of various styles. Over the summer I added to my collection of rubber footwear of various makes. More of those photos will soon come.
The pair of Adidas slippers I bought new a couple of years ago fell apart last summer while I was wearing them one day. They are size 3, EU 35. I like the fit, my heel hangs just a little out the back, my toes just a little over the front, the way I feel slippers should fit.
But the strap came loose. I "fixed" it with a long staple pushed into the foam sole, but it would pull out with time.
I had purchased this pair used on eBay some time ago, but never wore them. Marked 7W, I thought women's but no, the detailed label says 7 US, 7 UK, 40.5 EU, so the W may mean wide, although they don't seem wide.
They are obviously older than the ones I bought new, many of the "nubs" are breaking off, but they are newer to me.
After my pair broke, I started wearing these, they are OK, just a bit longer than I like. Meanwhile, I've now again repaired "my" pair, this time with a sheetrock screw screwed into the sole, which seems to hold the strap better than the staple. It hasn't come loose.
So now I've got two pair of this style to wear.
