Perforated Velcro Tab Flats Monday, February 11, 2008 2:45 AM

The black flats on the left are my everyday shoes. I bought them from Urban Outfitters in August 2004 and they're the most comfortable pair of flats I own. They've put up with a lot of walking and have traveled the world with me. Unfortunately they look very beat-up.

While digging through Value Village on Thursday, I came across the aqua flats in brand new condition. Sure, I'd have preferred finding another black pair, but it didn't dimenish my excitment over finding the exact same flats in my size. I remember this colour being offered when I bought my black ones at Urban.

the flats look great, very much fun and versatile. The aqua coloured one reminds me a little bit of a pair which I owned: http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x241/fruchtzwerg_photos/Shoes/DSC02895.jpg

I remember these flats, and wanting them. But the SF store didn't have them in my size, and I couldn't get them online. I don't remember if they didn't have them on the site or if they were sold out. Man!

That's too bad. Torontonians either must've not liked this style or I was at the store when these were just released because I had my pick of sizes.
