I ordered a new pair of sneakers on zappos.com because I could search by size and width. Since I broke my ankle my other sneakers fit tight, which is a bummer because they are super comfortable Propét's. I got them at DSW which sometimes has wide width shoes, sometimes not. Anyway, they are too tight. I ordered a pair of Avia's from zappos on the 7th, I received a free upgrade to express shipping - no tax, free delivery and they arrived on the 9th. They are so pristine white I hate to wear them! Reminded me of when I worked on the floors and used to get new shoes a couple times a year. Everyone always said "Oh, Elyse got new shoes" because they'd be all clean and white and not beat up. I had Nurse Mates in college but when I started my first job I bought a pair of Reebok sneakers and never went back to duty shoes!

My mom likes the shoe departments at Nordstrom and Von Maur really well. Von Maur is a midwest, family-run group of department stores. You all know Nordstrom I bet. My mom has a hard time getting good shoes too.
