Another Endorsement Deal

So the problem I had with my Clarks muckers – the duck-boot-looking things that I got for the trip to Europe last fall. The problem I had was that at some point, they started with that squishy sound as described earlier. So while at Valley Fair today, I stopped in and asked if they had any idea what I should do…and the fellow on duty said to bring them in and they might be able to do something for me.

Because I will do literally anything to avoid going grocery shopping, I actually drove all the way home, got them, and brought them back to the mall, where we discovered the problem: a hairline crack on the left side of the heel on each shoe. Not only did that cause the air-squishing, water had shipped in through the crack and been absorbed by the sole material; they were legitimately slightly heavier than a new pair of the same shoes.

And I know this because after consulting with the other employee in the shop, the guy marked up the old pair as “damaged” and gave me a new pair free of charge, apologizing that he could only give me an even exchange since I didn’t have the original receipt. Which, you know, is just freakin’ fine by me.

So yeah. If you need some good comfy shoes, go by Clark’s in VF and buy from our man Gilbert. (They also have a sale on – buy one, get a second pair 25% off, which means I finally have some black upscale-casual shoes other than Docs for the first time in five years and for only $53, which is pretty damn good I think.) So yeah. Clark’s FTW.

It can rain now. =)
