My sandals have zippers in the back. Commented to H that shoes with back zippers (or any zipper) are kind of annoying b/c the zipper smacks.
He suggested that I just tape the zipper down.
When asked how I'd unzip them to get them off (as if I'm actually humoring him at this point) he decided that I should just reapply the tape each time and use scotch tape instead of duct tape.
Geez...if I let H dress me I'd be walking around with tape on my shoes like it was no big thang.
I am having this same issue with my ankle booties today. I sound like I'm from the wild west starting a duel every time I walk down the hall. I'm tempted to take your husband's advice.
OMG, I'm dying over here. Your husbands are very, ahem, creative? Sure, let's go with creative.
As for the zipper problem, I agree, but I just deal with it. I hate making noise when I walk, and that's exactly what I do when I wear shoes with zippers, but it doesn't stop me.
