We have a BC shoe crisis brewing and I need your help. Most of you know about his addiction to Converse but for those of you who don’t, here’s the short of it.

Eva loves Converse so when she’d go shopping for herself, she’d buy BC shoes as well. They have every color, make, and model. Over the summer, Eva left for school so we slowly weaned BC away from Chuck's. Now he wears Saucony and Keen like Greg and the guys. But his Chuck's still come first.

Everyone up to speed? Good!

BC has grown out of almost all his shoes. We literally have one pair of shoe and a pair of snow boots. How do we know this? Because, like Greg, BC throws one shoe away when they begin to hurt so he doesn’t make the mistake of wearing them BUT he knows they need to be replaced. Crazy, right?

We can’t find anything! Zora and her nanny crew have combed NYC and CT. Who knew size 8.5-9 were in such demand? Anyway, today we searched online and found a few pair at Nordstrom. However, they didn’t have his size when we tried to order.

Zora went over to the Westchester hoping to find something— nope, nothing. But BC did garner laughter from the entire shoe department when he said, “I’ll just put socks on and wear the boxes!”

I’ll glad he’s in good humor. Meanwhile, the search continues. If you can provide other stores or online places we've missed, that would be helpful. Worst case scenario, Greg and the guys will take him shopping this weekend. As long as he sees them wearing it, he won’t put up too much of a fight…he’ll do anything to be like them.

BTW, even his shell-toes are too small. I give up...

Places We’ve Checked:
Nordstrom
Target
Dillards
Footlocker
Sears
Macy’s
Track ‘n Trail
DSW
Journey's
All the online shops we know including Saucony, Converse, and Keen

***UPDATE***
Thanks for the links. I knew asking you guys for assistance was the right choice. Zora found him a really cute pair of madras Converse today. It took her 12 hrs to find one stinkin' pair of shoes that he's looking out of the corner of his eyes saying, "Where are the laces?" But other than that, he likes them. Total count: two pair of shoes and one pair of snow boots. Keep them coming!


I think they're cute!



These are a MOST! Greg has a pair & BC is buggered he doesn't. Men!


Serious lifesavers & surprisely great in the snow.
