Rainy Day Shoes

No, these are not fancy shoes. They are my rainy day shoes, an idea which came to me when I was saying to a friend how much I prefer full-grain leather shoes to a friend. The better leather is softer to begin with, so much less likely to hurt my feet. She answered, sure, but what about when it rains?

I have had lovely leather shoes ruined by the rain. Not only that the rain hit them, but that I was forced to walk blocks and blocks in them and they stretched out and ruined the fit permanently. She advised me to always have some shoes made out of synthetic materials. Obviously, you can use many sneakers in the rain, but I like sneakers for running my dogs, not for going to my office.

So, I now save these shoes for a rainy day. “To lay up for a rainy day” is an old saying--very old, from 1626-- meaning “to provide against necessity and distress” which means means to save up against the hard times that inevitably come. But some of the Dress Doctors referred to garments or shoes as saved for a rainy day, and the way they said it, it seemed they had caught onto the same idea: when it’s rainy wear something that you won’t spoil or don’t mind spoiling. Of course, if it’s an important day, maybe you take the risk. See the quotation on best hats and rainy days from my post September 23, 2020.
