These actually come in a wide variety of styles, from rye to sesame seed bun. I hear they run small so be sure to order a half-size larger than usual.

Not a single study has ever shown that fancy running shoes make you less prone to injury. In fact they may make you MORE likely to hurt yourself. And the more expensive they are the worse they are for your feet.
Style Buzz Sandals that do two jobs in one. Alert Lepers, look good and only $1,980! Well they’ll see hear you coming in these babies! Did the snakes know what their fate was? Who cares, thes babies are waaayyy too cool! Look at the bells, look at the heels. So who’s wearing them? Sister Wolf, the blogger is saying that these are particularly useful if you are a leper! Kill two birds with one stone so to speak, fashion, with a built in alert! And they are only $1,980! Bargain!
Just as addicting as actually buying shoes yourself, this Zappos Map livestreams the shoe-purchasing of people across the country. Good for geography buffs who love shoes?
What’s the ideal gift for a basketball-obsessed president? [Editor's Note: Barack gets a really, really big autographed shoe from his friend Shaquille O'Neal. When you're president, maybe Shaq will send you shoes too.]
Style Buzz Next month, Nike will release the “Glen Quagmire Nike SB Dunk High” inspired by Quagmire's clothes on Family Guy. The blue matches his jeans while the gold star pattern represents his stylin' button-up shirt. Giggity awesome.
President Bush was given an official send-off by demonstrators on his last day in office, as they lobbed shoes, boots, pumps, and even almighty Crocs onto the lawn of The White House in a mimicry of the original incident. Although, to be honest, we can't picture Bush in a pair of Crocs (but if any of you want to work some Photoshop magic, please feel free).
Kanye West was seen about town wearing the sneakers he apparently designed for Louis Vuitton. And they're, well, white and kinda boring. I was hoping for something more flashy like high-tops with neon LEDs and pumps, but that's why I'm not Kanye.
President George W. Bush placed his own life at risk today by visiting an Iraqi office, where he came under heavy shoe fire.
Donate $5 to this charity and you'll buy 2 pairs of shoes for people in need. The goal is to get 50,000 pairs donated in 50 days. You could also win a free trip to hand-deliver a pair of shoes to someone in Mexico, which is a little odd, but better than a totebag.
Style Buzz Target’s newest designer line brings high-fashion shoes to the usually blah aisles of the Target shoe department. If I wore women’s shoes, I’d probably be psyched about this.
Style Buzz The fictional shoe worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future is being released by Nike sometime in July. It seems someone finally told Nike that they already make this shoe and that all they need to do is give the Kobe Bryant-backed Hyperdunk a different paint job. Maybe we really are living in the future (despite the lack of flying cars, and the coveted hoverboard.)
Style Buzz A new line of novelty baby shoes cleverly named Heelarious has created a high-heeled shoe for infants. The collapsible shoes are intended for baby girls who have not yet learned to walk, but still want to wear ‘fabulous’ footwear. Eww. I much prefer the trend of making adorable baby stuff into adult sizes; someone is obviously missing the point about the whole thing that makes babies cute (hint: it’s that they are tiny and innocent and don’t dress slutty).
Science Buzz Scientific research shows that sophisticated footwear actually does our feet more harm than good. A new line of shoes created by the son of the creator of indie staples Clarks, Wallabees simulate the experience of walking barefoot. Those of us choosing to eschew shoes all together can join a number of organizations including The Society for Barefoot Living , empowering you to contest that burdensome “No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service” sign at your favorite fast-food establishment.
Style Buzz Sneakers that extend with your child’s growing feet. Let’s face it: most little kids are bratty and do not deserve stylish shoes. What these shoes lack in coolness, they make up for in practicality, saving parents a few extra trips to the shoe store.
Style Buzz The plastic sandals that were so popular when we were children are back, again. This time they are being interpreted by big name designers like Marc Jacobs, Ferragamo, Fendi and even gulp Gisele Bundchen. Wow, it seems like the 1995 chunky heeled jellies revival was just yesterday.
Style Buzz Scandinavian galoshes that fit over your regular shoes are being hailed as the Croc alternative. Practical and stylish! May we add that Crocs are neither practical nor stylish?
Style Buzz These simple sneakers are being touted as the French version of the flip-flop. You’ve got your tired old Keds, but here’s what those stylish French girls are wearing.
