I feel out of place... I wear 3" heals... Retail btwn $150-450 for a pair of pumps for church...lol... sad but true. If I play for another gig, I wear casual shoes like the Pumas... mine are Nike Presto though.... Usually match my fit.

Wow! 3" heels huh...

Naw, Not weird at all. You're a female, so I understand. That would seem somewhat difficult to play in, but then again, I would'nt know.

I agree that we shouldn't have a crutch in foot wear but I know that we have to optimize our environment to be condusive to us performing our best. Weckle, Steve Smith, Neal Pert etc take their "playing" shoes where ever they go. A recent add in Modern DRumm for Vic Firth fetaured THomas Lang and he keeps his Puumas in his stick bag. Bottom line we have to keep our tools together and ready at all times. I keep a stick bag in the car for emergencies . I have been known to take a pair of sticks with me to dinner inside the pocket of my dinner jacket just in case an opportunity to jam comes up. I plan to invest in a nice leather bag for such occassions as well as keep a pedal and throne in the car.

No we shouldn't make excuses of crutches but we should be prepared with what we need. I have heard business men that keep suits on standbye for imprompt to meetings.

If what's in the package is better than the packaging then we have nothing to worry about.

So I went to my local Journeys to check out the "JKAY" pumas, and they just happened to be on sale for $59.99. However there were 2 problems...number 1, they didnt have the solid black, they had the one that is black and white. and Problem number 2, The biggest size they had was size 8, which even if I had my magic stretching cream, it would have needed a miracle to fit them on my size 13 foot. ......... . I walked away distraught. More shopping I will go. I tried Footlocker, Finish Line, Foot Action, Shoe Depot, Just for Feet, Journeys. Who else sells PUMA?

...okay so I went to the local malls here in O-town and I saw the "JKAY" Pumas for $89.99 at like 5 different stores.  They also come in other colors but the all black looks great. 

...I also saw the Pumas that I posted and they are $89.99.  The ones that I saw where black and khaki but you can get the all blacks ordered by whatever store or on Eastbay Catalog.

...both of these shoes are really light so that works out well for the drummer that needs to feel comfortable.  That's your update for today.  Stay tuned for more developments on LGM Drummers Forum News. ;)
