I don't have any trouble finding womens shoes that aren't pink, but I need tough boots that will last a year when I wear them every day and walk alot. In fall, you can find these in the womens section. The rest of the year, you can't. Fifty million womens boot sales and they're all high-heeled fashinoable crap. I have orthopedic shoe inserts I have to wear every day. I can't be wearing high heeled crap.

Thanks! It's worse than you think, because everything on the screen is reversed and I have to coordinate some of the entrances and exits on the screen with another puppeteer that does the 3D ones and comes in and out of backstage.
