oh I know it’s an addiction not a week goes by that I don’t make the promise again and it works if I don’t go near that store... but if I happen to walk by step on the mat the door whooshes open a most pleasing sound and there is the smell of shoes rocket dog sneakers a bubble appears in my chest flies out my mouth in a tremulous ohhhhhh… my hand reaches out touches rocket dog blue or khaki or that soft suede with white faux fur ohhhhhh… dealer hears me sigh eyes bore into mine his knowing smile whispers comes in a 6 1/2 once again I am lost in rocket dog addiction |

Laughing here--it IS an addiction (just ask 1slicklady) and I love those pink ones in the middle, with the embroidery stitching! Sigh--I had a pair with eyelet--sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! With little lady rose ribbonette thingies. I miss 'em. They are like old friends, aren't they? |

I have never even heard of these shoes but upon seeing them I WANT SOME!!!! I want every pair in the picture and more - and do they come in Sasquatch size?? See, I can no longer wear all those cute heels I adore so much - so I thought well then, I'll buy really cute matching canes instead... but these Rocket Dog shoes - I can wear these! Thank you for providing me with a new obsession ~~~~~ *icequeen runs off to find Rocket Dogs on the web, spending her cane money on shoes* btw ~~ love the poem too Caroline |

a bubble appears in my chest flies out my mouth in a tremulous ohhhhhh… my hand reaches out touches rocket dog blue or khaki literally felt those shoes tugging on your cloths...pulling you in like a vacum a very bold approach...describing emotional spending...fighting the addiction...very impressive writing...enjoyed the humor, fun, yet masterful expertise. And the photo...well, talk about a picture is worth a thousand words... Thank you for the smiles... |

I have to admit that the FIRST thing I thought when seeing this was ... OMGOSH! ... how neatly she ties her shoes and they are oh so clean, too. Did you just return from ... shopping? "or that soft suede with white faux fur ohhhhhh…" Oh! I want a pair like that, too! Very fun read here...now I have the urge to go shopping! Mercy! ... you are feeding my addiction! always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

You gals with the small feet....dang! I'm an 11 -- no rocket dogs in my size, I fear. Hey, but I am a poet....'cause I have Longfellows....lol....and I have great under standing...hehehe. Size is probably why I don't have an addiction -- cuz there just aren't very many cool shoes in my size....shucks!! Loved your shoes and your poem, Lady! ...jo |

Don't I know something of those bubbles ... I have just fallen in love with shoes like I never did (they are lovely AND comfortable). Went back to add to the black ones also the red and the white ones. They did not have my size in those colors anymore. I was distressed and they told me they might "reappear" in the shop ... couldn't they simply order them again? I did online researches, but found no "Cinzia Soft". (the word "soft" is written in English and indeed they are very soft) So I went back again. No new shoes had arrived. They said you might try on 37 instead of 38. I thought that was too much! But a red 37 I bought and they fit! Enjoyed this greatly, dear Lady. Love and hugs. Margherita |
