Sandals step into spring
with comfortable stride
ByBetsieAmmons
This spring, sandals are once again the
big thing in shoes, according to Lincoln
shoe store managers, and they said sandals
are becoming more casual and comfortable.
Comfort is achieved by lower heels and
wedged or rippled soles, said Francis Chris
topher, manager of Famous Footwear,
3S34 S. 38th St. He said the trend is
toward casualness because women want
shoes to wear with blue jeans.
Christopher McLean, buyer at Backstage
Ltd., in the Gunny's Complex, concurred
with this statement.
"People are still trying to find shoes to
go with both jeans and dresses," McLean
said.
However, he said no shoe styles will fit
with both casual and dressy clothes.
Dee Miller, manager of Wells and Frost,
36 Gateway, said she thinks shoes are
becoming more "airy." , - "
- Both Christopher and Pete Canakes,
manager of Norman's Shoe Center, 2600
N. 43 St., said huraches are popular this
year. Huraches are woven leather sandals
with wooden soles.
Canakes stressed the importance of
buying leather rather than canvas shoes.
Leather breathes more in the summer, he
said.
If canvas is bought, he said, be sure to
see that the shoe has airholes to allow your
feet to breathe.
McLean said ankle wraps are also
popular at Backstage, and added that they
come with thin or clunky heels.
" . Several managers slso said macrame,
rope and flat sandals also are selling well.
The colors of sandals range from natural
and earth tones (tin, brown and beige) to
bright colors with stripes and multi-colored
shoes. .
For dress shoes, the managers agree that
sandals still are the best buy. Sam Arrigo,
manager of Baker's Shoe Store, 108 Gate
wary, said the trends in dress shoes' are
going to slenderize two- to three-inch heels,
and white is a popular color. "
McLean said dress shoes are more
feminine this year than in previous years.
Men's shoes are becoming more tailored
and dressier, according to McLean. The
heels are lower and the toes are more
tapered to fit pant lengths, he added.
Both McLean and Carakes said ridged
soles are big for men's casual shoes.
McLean also said the casual shoe styles
are Very diverse."
