This is a random driving shoe article in the Wall Street Journal that made me laugh, especially some of the comments. Thought some on here would be interested. Never realized there were "driving moccasins". Seems a bit much to me. Can't wait to see who will be wearing those animal prints out at a race.

It's true though...Puma Speedcats/Replicats are really popular on campus but most people who wear them aren't aware of what they are!

My Pilotis always looked a bit like bowling shoes to me, though.

Kidding aside, I like the article. I thought I was geeky turns out I'm trendy. As the article says they replace wearing running shoes on casual days, which according to the expert in the articles says, is wait for it


A DISAAAAASTER! :lol:

This is a very Wolowitz kind of thing to say. I'm sure Wolowitz would think the ladies would dig the animal print.
