'Tis the Season for Waterproof Footwear
Posted Tuesday, December 23, 2008 by Erin

Winter is fast approaching and, for many of us, this means cold and wet weather. Footwear etc. offers a great selection of water repellent shoes and boots without the sacrifice of style and comfort.

Clarks, Keen, and Merrell brands meet all the requirements above with soles providing excellent traction for those slippery conditions.

With a variety of MBT styles constructed of 100% waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex membranes or Ecco's "Hydromax" – exceptional leather with highly water resistant properties – you can be sure your feet will stay warm and dry this season!

Nurses in MBT Shoes
Posted Wednesday, November 26, 2008 by Erin

Nurses do an amazing job providing vital health services to the patients and communities they serve.
 
For those physically demanding 12-hour shifts, Footwear etc. offers the largest selection of MBT shoes to help ease the strain of being on your feet.
 
An oncology nurse at Doctor's Medical Center in Modesto, California, recently wrote to us:

"I've been in the field for 25 years and no other shoe has made this much of a difference!  My feet and legs aren't as tired - my posture has improved. The other nurses on my floor have been raving about MBT shoes for years. I wish I had tried them sooner! Thank you!"
 
MBT styles most popularly requested by nurses include:


 

Sapatu Clog - White Leather  














Chapa - White Mesh/Off White Nubuck












Boost - Rose














MBT Sport - White Leather/Mesh

These Boots Were Made for Walking
Posted Saturday, November 1, 2008 by Erin
In recent weeks, the blogosphere has been abuzz - and surprisingly so - over the presidential candidates' choice of footwear -- particularly that of Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Politics aside, one has to admit it is great to see her pull off a variety of styles that have inspired women everywhere to view sensible footwear as chic.  Whether you agree or disagree with her personal and political views, you've got to admire her choice of shoes that feel as good as they look!  "Feel good and look good" is a mantra Footwear etc. believes in and aims to share with the world.

We've been paying close attention to Palin's comfy clogs, signature wedge slides, fashionable patent and croc leather heels, and the notorious knee high boots. In an effort to build on her stylish influence, we offer here a short selection from our popular Dansko, Mephisto, BeautiFeel and Ecco lines that we feel are worthy of a nomination for Election '08 favorites!

Naot Ashley Epitomizes Comfort with Style
Posted Monday, June 30, 2008 by Erin
Naot shoes are known for their comfort and simple elegance and if you have yet to take a close look at a pair, I strongly recommend trying a pair of Naot Ashley.

One customer wrote, "These sandals are just wonderful. I have an arch problem and these sandals fit so well that I hardly know I am wearing shoes. The cork insole molds to the shape of my foot and makes every day walking a pleasure, as well as being stylish."

Buzzillions.com reviewers give this Naot shoe a 4.7 out of 5 star rating. It's worthwhile reading the overwhelming praise shared on this site. But if you're the type that goes for professional input, look no further than TV Guide's April 14 - 20 issue in which the costume designer of Desperate Housewives, Cate Adair, picks Naot Ashley as the perfect sandal for a "mom on the go" like Lynette, played by Felicity Huffman.
