The place where I bought the "Walkers" was on the main road (very busy) going away from the Malecon, a good 3-5 miles north of the Malecon, towards Sayulita. There was a huge grocery store on the right hand side of the road and the little shopping plaza was in front of the grocery store. It was the first store on the right as you walked into the plaza, with lots and lots of shoes/sandals hanging on the walls. Wish I could remember the name. There was an HBC? bank near there too. Sorry, that's all I can recall. The sandals are black, no white stitching, with the word "Walkers" on them. <BR/>Good luck Andee!<BR/>CharmaineCharmalitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04752347777887321241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231066.post-23525128769328779642007-11-01T18:39:00.000-07:002007-11-01T18:39:00.000-07:00Hey Charmaine, could you be alittle more specific ...Hey Charmaine, could you be alittle more specific about where you found the "Walker" shoes/sandals.In PV.<BR/><BR/>thanks alot, AndeeAndeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722006659186168668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231066.post-48813792873468853212007-11-01T18:17:00.000-07:002007-11-01T18:17:00.000-07:00Not pathetic at all ... very funny. When I was in ...Not pathetic at all ... very funny. When I was in PV last year, my feet were killing me as I brought all the wrong shoes. I went to a shoe store in PV in a little indoor plaza type place and purchased a pair of black sandals called "Walkers". They were $50 US which I thought too expensive at the time but I was desparate for a good pair of walking sandals because closed in shoes were just too hot. They turned out to be a blessing. I wore them all over while I was down there and all summer at home and they still only show little signs of wear. Worth every peso. I wish I knew the name of the place to tell you ... Good luck. Flip flops just don't cut it if you like to walk like I do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231066.post-85682119286346488612007-11-01T16:41:00.000-07:002007-11-01T16:41:00.000-07:00Pathetic is the word for sandals that don't hold u...Pathetic is the word for sandals that don't hold up!<BR/><BR/>Since you say you have wide feet I wonder if you've been looking at all at men's sandals? They are usually sturdier, I think.<BR/><BR/>I bought a pair of sandals for long walks since I can't wear shoes (because my feet get too hot) and I love them. They have a strap around the toes, one near the ankle and one around the back. All are adjustable. If there are any outdoor type stores (maybe in PV) that would be the place to find them as I think they are kind of hiking footwear.<BR/><BR/>I have four pairs of sandals and even though I rotate them I can see that they are all deteriorating, except the ones I talked about above.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15016075941355264454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231066.post-34862137532632793832007-11-01T09:00:00.000-07:002007-11-01T09:00:00.000-07:00Hilarious Andee !!
