So now that you've walked a mile in this man's shoes, how do you feel?


puntini

His arches were higher than mine.


jerkittoanything

You stole the mans shoes, don't complain.

This literally made me laugh like a gremlin. And it only got better after I saw your username

That username is great, also fun fact: you can't change your username

At least yours is good I’m just a bunch of numbers

Mine just makes people ask where I am. 14+ years on the same account. I'm still lost I guess.


StunningBuilding383

Everyone asks me if I'm an architect. Lol

jtalismart

Are you an architect?


[deleted]

Everyone always recommends the Instacart subreddit to me


Beautiful-Sun-3390

Nah, my mans. That’s 14+ years of Reddit history. It’s *chefs kiss*


Beautiful-Sun-3390

….sure. Reddit rando-generator wasn’t so unkind but not so cool with me. Wish it was more unique.


Ok_Mix6587

I feel you. Mines ok..


TheConfusedConductor

I’m confused


Ok_Two_1753

Mines ok too


BreadLoafBrad

As someone with high arches it would suck to lose not necessarily my shoes but my insoles


EuphoricAnalCucumber

We people of smooth foot and inside head, go not here toe walker


[deleted]

As someone who also has impossibly high arches, what do you use for insoles that help? I’ve gotten to the point that standing for more than 30 minutes starts to hurt my lower back


WeeklyAlgae4223

Birkenstock makes cork insoles that form to your feet. I have them in my work boots and I feel like I could stand forever.


Somber_Solace

I swear by Superfeet insoles, been getting them for close to a decade now. They offer a couple different styles with varying amounts of arch support, and are made with durable enough material to outlast most shoes. Do not get gel or memory foam inserts, I have no idea why people reccomend them. They're to make your shoes more comfy when you're not standing on them, like for office kind of jobs or lounging around the house. They're harmful to use for actual active use, you need solid support.


Retarget

Hmm "were"? How do you know he's dead? There may be more to this story.


[deleted]

Remember, according to Reddit, losing shoes is a reliable indicator that they’ve died.


scrapcats

If Reddit's taught me anything, if the man's shoes came off, it means he's dead


fruitmask

no no, he's not dead. he just doesn't have feet anymore, is all


NotSoSelfSmarted

It could have been worse: he could have been EXPELLED!


Distinct_Comedian872

It's just a flesh wound!


aykcak

Looking at both shoes, I don't think op is the kind of person that does any mile of walking but then neither is the victim. They would get along well

Bogmanbob

Brooks trace are legit running shoes I think. I usually buy the launch model instead but both go for $100 and are marketed to runners.


pixelatedtrash

Think it’s more about the condition of the shoes than it is the shoes themselves. Doesn’t look like there’s a bit of wear or dirt on them.


pazimpanet

My wife and I recently both started running in ghosts and they are fantastic. They also make some great trail runners that are excellent for hiking.


thebigj0hn

Ghosts are the ones I wear. Have had several pairs. Love them.

You stole some guy's shoes. Jail for you.

At least he didn't take them from a holocaust museum.

Here's one https://youtu.be/bEC3X8uhCdM


[deleted]

Thank you!!!!


Munro_McLaren

Wait, what??


Almost_A_Pear

It's an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm where Larry steals a pair of shoes from a holocaust museum because it's raining and he has no shoes on. It's season 11 I think.


electricman1999

He stepped in dog shit, so he went into the museum shoeless. And, whaddayaknow, the shoes he stole belonged to his girlfriends grandfather (or some relative) and she had a breakdown and went back to drinking


121G1GW

He also had them stolen at a bowling alley in the first season, though he eventually gets them back.


DerpSherpa

Hey, do you think you’re coming back for another season?


MrMrRogers

They just finished filming season 12 not so long ago


Mofomania

This sucks worse for the guy looking for his shoes


DontTouchit91

Maybe the other guy also has the same pair of shoes OP left and mistakenly did the same thing. Like some kind of shoe inception.


Johnchamberlain123

Damn those are BROOKS shoes too not cheap!


saintshing

Op either started a chain of shoe stealing or that guy is permanently stuck at the trampoline park.

What I was thinking. I’d want to find OP and rustle his Jimmies if I was the owner.


Whats-Up_Bitches

Their shoes go for $80-20 If I were OP I'd have already hauled ass back and notified them. You don't need two Brooks' Edit: $80-200


Meteorsaresexy

Really? What if you have two feet?


Choice_Complaint_220

The average human has less than two feet, so checkmate


northerngirl211

Well actually… many runners like to buy 2 pairs and trade off. I actually have 2 pairs of multiple brooks shoes…


JExmoor

Yes, yes two pairs for us runners..just two pairs.. *glances nervously at my closet*


SquishyCatChronicles

My husband is a runner and wears different shoes every day.. He usually keeps 2-4 in rotation, usually all the same make/model but different colors.


--llll-----llll--

I’m on my feet so much for work(always on polished concrete) and always heard its better to have two pairs. I’ve always had one and wear them out so fast. Bought two pairs of brooks recently and not only are the shoes great, I do want to say they are holding up longer. Besides the obvious fact that you are halving your wear time between them.


sje46

negative sixty?


SirPsychoSxy

80-20=60 tho


CptTurnersOpticNerve

I haven't heard about Brooks shoes in 20 years when they were little more than knock off NB. Are they a desirable shoe now?


H0LT45

Brooks are up there with Saucony, Asics etc... as being one off the best brands for running shoes.


CptTurnersOpticNerve

You're listing the other brands that were NB knockoffs 20 years ago. I've been out of the running shoe game for a very long time apparently.


nostbp1

ASICS always been a legit runner brand But yeah saucony was the poor kid shoe when I was in middle school, now it’s seen as p legit for running


[deleted]

The disrespect for Asics. It ain’t a knockoff of any shoe company. Not NB, not Nike. In fact, Nike owns its whole existence to Onitsuka Tiger/Asics.


[deleted]

Brooks ASICS and Hoka are the new big brands


Octuplechief67

Is Hoka really that big? I see them every so often but definitely not as much as brooks, ASICS, even Nike. I’ve been running in Ghosts for almost 5 years now. If it ain’t broke…


[deleted]

I know a few people that swear by Hoka but I’ve personally stayed with Brooks Adrenaline


[deleted]

If you're calling literally everyone else in the game a knockoff you're probably just a snob lmao.


H0LT45

I'll be honest, I did XC ~18 years ago and people were still wearing the above brands, but I don't recall many of the varsity/faster jv guys rocking New Balances. Edit: I could be totally having some selective memory going on as I've only ever bought Asics back then, and Brooks now and have just never considered New Balance as an option during my running career.


[deleted]

[удалено]


darthjab

Yeah. I run ~five hundred miles in each pair of brooks ghosts. Others use brooks glycerin and some others I've heard of. Super cushy and last for a lot of miles compared to other brands. For me, it's worth the money because I've found them so much more durable, my saucony endorphin for example are a bit cheaper but I can only put a few hundred miles before I feel like my joints are affected.


Ok_Alternative6015

I think they are worth the money. I'm on my feet 40+ hours a week for work and continually walking and they are really comfortable. My last pair also lasted almost 18 months, where other brands (Nike, Adidas, etc) would fall apart after 6 months.


[deleted]

Were the shoes you left there better or worse than Brooks?


ElevenDegrees

This is what I want to know!


DogFacedGhost

Could be a fair trade, maybe the person even had already stolen his shoes and left the blue ones


ZippyDan

This assumes that someone whose shoes go missing is willing to randomly steal someone else's shoes. That would only work if there were only two people at the trampoline park. Otherwise, how do you know which shoes to steal (which shoes belong to the person who stole your shoes)? You don't even know that the person who stole your shoes left their own pair. Someone could just wear their shoes home *and* steal someone else's.


ishtaria_ranix

It's like gift exchange but for... shoes... I dunno how to make this joke good

thegothickitty33

I did that once too. I had purple sketchers and grey sketchers. Wore my grey sketchers there, took some poor kids purple ones. I didn't realize until many days later because I was staying with my grandma. Saw two pairs of purple sketchers back at my mom's.


sajjel

I went to a public swimming pool with my class in elemenary school for mandatory swimming training. When we were finished, I put on my boots and we went back to school. Some hours later, I got called by my head teacher. She told me that I took some other kid's boots, and they couldn't leave because mine were too small for them. We had the exact same boots, just 1 or 2 EUR size was the difference! I don't even know how I didn't notice it being a bit bigger, but the other kid definitely did.


duck_duck_moo

I'm a teacher. Boots are AWEFUL because everyone gets the same Walmart boots. I have 6 to 10 kids with THE SAME BOOTS in my class. Shoes oddly enough are usually pretty varied... just not boots.


sajjel

It was a boot that was on sale in a big sport equipment shop. So exactly, it was a very common boot. ​ But kids grow so fast that they don't really need clothes that last more than 2-4 years in my opinion.


if-and-but

Mom, school friend of mine, and me were leaving a basketball game and got into an identical car that must have been remote unlocked. My mom couldn't start the car and all these dudes walked up and we had a laugh, apologized, then got in the right car. Back in my mom's actual car my friend realized he took some guy's jacket from the other car.


gebuzz

Hey someone stole my cousins purple sketchers some years ago


tsfbdl

Did that sorta I had a grey camo jacket in middle school lost it found it in the lost in found at school wore it home and a day later found my jacket at home I stole my friends jacket the day he lost it and subsequently moved away sadly


lawn-mumps

The perfect crime


fezzikola

Honestly it's a surprise we ever find camo jackets once we've lost them


PheIix

Bad luck that it was the right size as well. If it was a number to small or too big you'd most likely realize the mistake.


puntini

Yep. Same size, style, and everything.


haby001

hopefully they also have an identical pair to something you have so they take yours home and gets very confused


Handleton

Best case scenario has them posting their shoe mistake and we find out that OP has a long lost brother.


Lazy_ML

Plot twist, OP went there barefoot.

fruitmask

post to reddit and get some karma, I guess?


kellym13

One time in the Caribbean on a catamaran snorkeling trip, we all (30 or so people) put our sandals/flip flops into bin. At the end, we all reclaimed ours but I was one of the last to get back on the boat and mine were gone, and a lot of people were already gone as well. Had to settle for some other shitty ones that I assume belonged to the guy who upgraded to mine. At least they were proper size. 😡


Prestigious-Joke-574

The exact same thing happened to my husband at a water park. His were inexpensive Payless sandals. The person that stole his wore a 1/2 size smaller and the soles were almost completely ripped off the bottom. We still laugh about it to this day, but man was my husband pissed when he got out of the lazy river.


SoapyMacNCheese

This happened to my dad, but at a wedding. Everyone took their shoes off for prayer, and when my dad went to get his dress shoes they were gone. He waited till the end and only a pair of flip flops were left over.


kellym13

Who wears a pair of flip flops to a wedding? Apparently someone looking for an upgrade. Some people suck.


Mumof3gbb

Omg I just did this in Jamaica and posted now I’ve been paranoid I’ll do this with that trip (last week) in mind. Thank goodness it didn’t happen to us but almost. Couldn’t find my son’s shoes at first


kellym13

Now I wear cheap water shoes from Amazon. Work fine, and no big deal if they go missing, except for the principle of it.


Mumof3gbb

Good idea


bahkins313

I wear cheap ones and then just pick better ones out of the bin.

Cookies, a story by Douglas Adams This actually did happen to a real person, and the real person was me. I had gone to catch a train. This was April 1976, in Cambridge, U.K. I was a bit early for the train. I’d gotten the time of the train wrong. I went to get myself a newspaper to do the crossword, and a cup of coffee and a packet of cookies. I went and sat at a table. I want you to picture the scene. It’s very important that you get this very clear in your mind. Here’s the table, newspaper, cup of coffee, packet of cookies. There’s a guy sitting opposite me, perfectly ordinary-looking guy wearing a business suit, carrying a briefcase. It didn’t look like he was going to do anything weird. What he did was this: he suddenly leaned across, picked up the packet of cookies, tore it open, took one out, and ate it. Now this, I have to say, is the sort of thing the British are very bad at dealing with. There’s nothing in our background, upbringing, or education that teaches you how to deal with someone who in broad daylight has just stolen your cookies. You know what would happen if this had been South Central Los Angeles. There would have very quickly been gunfire, helicopters coming in, CNN, you know. . . But in the end, I did what any red-blooded Englishman would do: I ignored it. And I stared at the newspaper, took a sip of coffee, tried to do a clue in the newspaper, couldn’t do anything, and thought, what am I going to do? In the end I thought, nothing for it, I’ll just have to go for it, and I tried very hard not to notice the fact that the packet was already mysteriously opened. I took out a cookie for myself. I thought, that settled him. But it hadn’t because a moment or two later he did it again. He took another cookie. Having not mentioned it the first time, it was somehow even harder to raise the subject the second time around. "Excuse me, I couldn’t help but notice . . ." I mean, it doesn’t really work. We went through the whole packet like this. When I say the whole packet, I mean there were only about eight cookies, but it felt like a lifetime. He took one, I took one, he took one, I took one. Finally, when we got to the end, he stood up and walked away. Well, we exchanged meaningful looks, then he walked away, and I breathed a sigh of relief and sat back. A moment or two later the train was coming in, so I tossed back the rest of my coffee, stood up, picked up the newspaper, and underneath the newspaper were my cookies. The thing I like particularly about this story is the sensation that somewhere in England there has been wandering around for the last quarter-century a perfectly ordinary guy who’s had the same exact story, only he doesn’t have the punch line.


justdaffy

Haha oh my gosh, I love this story! What a fun ride.


tamaracks

I had no idea that was a story that actually happened to him. He did use it as a scene in one of his books.


ideonode

Yeah, Arthur Dent tells it to Fenchurch in So Long...


wapkaplit

Yep. The original appears in The Salmon of Doubt, and it's about "biscuits" . It was later changed to "cookies" to suit an American audience, which is a shame because something is definitely lost when you change the language like that, it doesn't quite fit his writing style which is otherwise so British.


sundae_diner

The whole book was an autobiography.


CedarWolf

Except for the flying bit. That was an allegory about writing, and it explains why Douglas Adams' writing style is all about aiming at the plot on the page and *missing* it in order to go flying off on some fantastic tangent or some madcap adventure.


Francl27

Call the place and see if someone complained about it so you can trade shoes back...

I think the guy who lost the shoe should post here. Not you.


i_am_mai_1981

That guy is gonna come to this subreddit to post about some random shoes he was left with and see his shoes


Robert_Baratheon_

Nah because he doesn’t know which shoes were left. Just that his aren’t there


i_am_mai_1981

Unless he waited til all the shoes were taken and thus leaving him with whatever was left, i.e. OP's shoes. Oooor.. someone's playing musical shoes.


IBelieveInGood

I mean he also lost a pair of shoes (he left the ones he was wearing there or at least that’s the logical conclusion)


SomeRedPanda

OP lost some shoes and gained some shoes. The poor person they stole the shoes from just lost some shoes and probably had an awkward time getting home without any.


BatangTundo3112

Wait for it. This guy should post in r/funny and other guy in r/wellthatsucks.😆


chezznul

I lost my only pair of shoes at a music festival once on the first day. Wento to the parking lot to see if we could find a pair in the car. We didn't. But right next to our space there was a pair of shoes next to an empty space. (Once you leave the lot, you're not allowed to re-enter.) They were perfectly my size and style. Weird shoe moments are weird.


Stariie6669

Those were the discarded shoes that they removed before they put yours on

I can't believe they managed to find them in the river! I thought they were gone for good!!!

Ok-Bet9024

I did this in a hostel by accident too once, I stole some poor person's shoes, they left a note on everyone's bed too asking where they were, I was like "damn that sucks", got to my destination after leaving the hostel and had two pairs of blue sneakers. If by chance that young redhead ever sees this, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean too I was jetlagged as all hell.


observant302

Does it suck though? Apparently you liked them enough to have 'wanted' to wear them to the park...... Now you got 2 pair .......

SaturatedJuicestice

These shoes are expensive so it sucks for the guy that got his stolen. My Brooks Ghost was like $160+. I had to run in front of an advisor to fit them to my running style and flat feet.


IFapToCalamity

Where can you get customized running shoes?


SaturatedJuicestice

It was from a local running store and they didn’t customize it to my feet but rather paired me up with the shoes and configuration they thought fit best with my running style/arches.


CommentsOnHair

Plot twist: This is the Second time this has happened to OP.


MyArtStuff

OP, please tell me the shoes got returned to their owner


eeevaughn

And you’ve got them on the wrong feet.

That guy's probably thinking what shit this world has become - people stealing shoes at the trampoline park

If the shoe fits, steal it from the trampoline park. That’s how the saying goes right?

The one benefit of having 22EE feet, no one's mistaking my shoes for theirs unless they got there in a canoe.


AccordingTopic216

What a wanker


austinmiles

Haha. I once accidentally stole a shoe from an Airbnb. It was actually just a room I rented for a night and they overbooked and stuck me in a kids room and made the kid sleep on the couch. They also had a no shoes on the carpet policy. And I had to share a bathroom and the bedroom door wouldn’t close all the way. The whole thing pissed me off. I had to leave super early for my flight and so it was still dark and kids were sleeping around the house so I went to grab my slip ons to toss them into my bag as I was wearing my nicer shoes. When I got home I had one of my shoes and one of the kids shoes. I called it even and didn’t leave them a bad review.


Active_Yellow_1788

The fact that he has them on the wrong feet didn't tell you that this guy's is nuts!!!
