Good mountain shoes can protect your feet from potential hurt and relieve your pain when you are going though long time hiking. So before going to Huangshan, investing on a pair of good shoes is very wise choice.

As far as I know, mountain shoes would cost you a lot, but for the sake of a happy travelling, you’d better make up your mind to buy one. You can use it to other outdoor travelling plans too, so not at all squanter.

If you seldom wear sports shoes in you daily work days, and likes office lady style more, then you also need one good mountain shoes since you may have one or two happy long jouney to the natural wild, where high heels and those fancy lady shoes are not qualified to wear.

Well, for 30 something man, sneakers work fine. On the exceptional day that are not allowed to wear sneakers, a pair of distressed leather boots or chelsea boots would do, or the classic Clarks desert boots. I think that for footwear to wear with jeans, John Varvatos puts out a consistently understated and masculine, but stylish line.

One thing that I find important is the darkness of shoe compared to the jean… i wear darker shoes with darker jeans. black shoes only with my darkest jeans, and i would never wear anything shiney.. black or not. The color is important.

There were many shoes that look good with jeans, I recommend girls wearing shoes with some heels, that makes the leg looks longer. Even if you are tall enough, a nice high heel would add your charm score.  Skinny jeans is quite popular nowadays for girls but be careful to choose them since not every leg fit them well.

In fact, I got only one canvas shoes, and I don’t want to buy one expensive mountain shoes just for this one time use and get it rest for most of the time in the year. But this shoes may not be suitable for climing mountains. I have to take safety as an consideration.

Sports shoes or mountain shoes is quite expensive as you know, and cheap ones always get poor quality. My boyfriend suggest me to buy one to prepare for such outdoor activities just like this time. It’s not a waste of money but a invest for your health.

I sensed some reasonable factors in his words and I make up my mind to go pick one next day. Happy outdoor brings good mood, good mood brings good health. So I’m investing here:)

Red represents enthusiam and sexy indication in western country, but in China, it also relates to horror reminder, so one should be careful about choosing them. Besides, it’s not that easy to adapt to your whole clothing style too.

Anyway, red colors at most times is avoided  by many shoes designers in China, you could wear red stocking, but please not a red shoes, I mean, the totally red shoes, not those with red color as a decoration.

It’s not those year when you could wear the stubborn rainy boots or ugly rain shoes to the streets and office, it must ruin your whold apperance and attracts mocks from people, but you either don’t want to wear your expensive leather sandal in this rainy days too.

Someone maybe feels this is not a problem at all, since they got their own cars and barely touches the rain during the road to destination. But not all ordinary people in China got cars. Transportation is still a large problem for most ordinary people, especially in bad weather.

The rain shoes must be not too ugly and peform the function well. I think I would prepare one pair of sandal slipper that could endure the water and which cost so little. I will put my expensive sandle away for a while. I wonder if Cros shoes is a good idea or not, is its materia anti-water ? Maybe I should bought one of them for cosy and casual walking.

Is there other idea about what shoes to wear in rainy days, please share.

Flip-flop is quite popular during summer. It’s so convenient to wear, so casual looking and so got so many fancy designs out there.

But I’m not one of those flip-flop person, my toes never feels ok wearing flip-flop shoes, and uneasy feeling cover around me evertime, can’t quite get used to it. Do you happen to have the same feeling with me?

Flip-flop is, as a matter of fact, just a slipper, but it’s price may not be that cute as it looks, some may even surprise you, like some flip flop summer sandal designed for women. Why would anyone spend so much money to buy a slipper that may get you anching toes anyway?

Besides, it got no heels, can hardly fit into my clothes style. I usually don’t buy shoes without heels, even though I’m not at all short in height, in fact, I’m quite tall, but everyone want their legs to seem taller, don’t we
