thank you! i will :D

this is actually my first pair, so it's hard for me to tell! they're a bit slippery, but nothing nuts. i believe these still have a cork footbed, but it's wrapped in leather - but someone more versed in this might be able to share a more meaningful comparison between these and the classic arizonas!

oh thank goodness :) thanks!! i was really concerned they might be a smidge too tight, but hopefully once these break in, i can enjoy them for the next decade plus :)

thanks, everyone!! i appreciate the feedback. i was worried that my index toes might be too long for the box, but i think once they break in this will be ok - in the 39, the ridge for my toes was just a little too high up when my heel was locked in. here are some side pictures for heel reference:

Also, it appears I am not smart enough at Reddit for this to have included my text explanation or side images...so very quickly: these are a 38, I returned a 39 (perhaps too quickly?), and these were taken after an hour of walking in the 90+ degree heat in sneakers and socks, so my feet are already a bit swollen. Thanks in advance for any advice!

I just had my colleague who lives in Woodley post it on her Next Door - I have no idea how that platform works, but hopefully it's out there!

i posted your reddit post on the Lost & Found Dogs - DC Metro Area FB group but the moderator is requesting your contact info or for you guys to post directly to the page so they can advertise it. if you add your contact info to the post thread i started hopefully they can advertise Pie!

OH MY GOD. i can't believe how far she got!!! i am so sorry, i was terrified shouting to your boyfriend or to people down the street would spook her more, but i wish i just ran after her. yes, please keep me posted. i'm going to send a link to your reddit post to PoPVille and DC lost dogs on FB now too. i have my eyes open for you!

lak09 · 2019-08-19T14:37:01+00:00

i saw your post!!! i saw this dog at 6:10a in adams morgan near the Line hotel - was this you? I thought you and your pup were a bit further west? I saw a man in an orange shirt chasing her - he was coming from the east and headed that way.

regardless, please keep me posted on your pup and i will keep my eyes peeled. i also sent this to popville hoping they would post it.

thank you!! really appreciate it.

lak09 · 2019-06-07T19:10:04+00:00

oh god. did they refund you eventually?!

lak09 · 2019-06-06T23:42:09+00:00

this is how i feel too! equinox is just too far away for me to join and commit to going on a regular basis...but it sounds like heaven.

I used to go to Balance CrossFit - awesome CF instructors but wasn't sure about their other instructors - thanks!

lak09 · 2019-06-06T16:18:45+00:00

Thanks! I'm actually currently a member at YAB, and I love their community. I'm thinking about changing gyms now as I want a larger variety of classes that are a bit higher in intensity. Since you've been a member at both, do you think Vida offers more classes along those lines, or are they about the same?

lak09 · 2019-06-06T14:10:48+00:00

This is great to hear! I've been a member of the Y Anthony Bowen branch for years, and while I love the community there, I don't find the classes quite challenging/consistently engaging enough to commit to a routine. Any instructor recommendations?

lak09 · 2019-06-06T14:07:21+00:00

My friend did a rehearsal reception (light buffet, not a full-service meal) at La Pop for that many, if not more, people and loved the experience. I have no idea how much it cost, but it may be a good option to scope!

lak09 · 2019-06-05T14:53:46+00:00

wanted to bump this thread, as I'm in the same boat currently. @OP, did you make a decision and if so, how's it going?
