I am never one to turn down a free pair of shoes. Yet, as all companies know (I hope), parent bloggers will always write a completely honest review of any product given to them.
At least, I will.
These shoes from hottershoes.com were far nicer than I had expected when I looked through their brochure. They are possibly the most comfortable pair of shoes I own, which is exactly as they are designed to be.
Their new 'Comfort Concept' technology is built into the sole of the shoe and injects millions of tiny air bubbles to make a very lightweight shoe. Their shoes also have a deep toe bed so that toes can move easily and flex out.
The problem?
Well there were no problems with this particular shoe, I really liked them, I expect I'll wear them all summer, when it arrives. However, they were the only design of shoes in the Hotter brochure that I actually liked.
Although the brochure features the shoes on thirty-something models, I felt they were not aimed at this target market. I walk several miles every day so I like comfortable shoes, but for me these were just not fashionable enough.
Then I went with IJ and Granny for a meal wearing my new Hotter shoes and discovered Granny also wearing a pair of Hotter shoes.
The downside to this is that Granny is in her sixties and I don't really want to be wearing the same style of shoes as my mother (sorry mum!).
The upside is that Granny was able to give her verdict on Hotter shoes based on many more years of buying experience than me.
So here's Granny's review,
"Hotter shoes are great, really comfortable and perfect when you are on your feet a lot. I've ben wearing them for years. A friend of mine always buys four pairs at a time because she loves them so much. I do think they are aimed at the over-fifties though dear, why have you been sent a pair?"
So there we have it. For the record, Granny's friend is also in her mid-sixties. So great shoes for that age bracket, but I'm not quite there yet.
