That is too bad, but it ain't just shoes.
For what it's worth, these are the shoes I like to wear[0], but they ain't cheap.
They are very comfortable.

I get sick of shoes that look comfortable, but aren't (I'm looking at you, Sketchers).
I'm on my feet, all day (standing desk). Comfortable shoes are a must.
Since the young whippersnappers in the tech industry have already written people like me off, just for being over 40, there's not much to be gained by worrying about whether or not they think I'm stylish. I might as well be comfortable.
Being "old" isn't an excuse for looking shabby. Downvote me to hell.
It’s a perfectly good point. You're stating that older folks have good taste and ability. Frankly, it’s refreshing to see it being admitted on a technical forum. I’m actually used to the opposite. Also, refreshingly, it came from personal life experience, as opposed to a hypothetical strawman argument.
I don’t look “shabby,” and I’m also not actually “old,” as far as I’m concerned. It’s others that have decided they have the authority to apply these labels to me. I’ve just learned that if people will stick a label onto me, I should take ownership of it, and restyle it to my taste.
I guess no one noticed that SAS makes their shoes in the US, which was actually the OP I made. Style had nothing to do with it. It was you guys that went there with the Mr. Blackwell critique (after all, everyone knows that when you want to understand the latest trends in fashion, geeks are where it's at), which may actually speak to the article’s point.
Sorry to hear about your grandfather’s health challenges, but I can certainly relate to his “outpacing some half his age.” I regularly do so, in the technical arena.
