Good shoes are priceless as a teenager. As an adult shoes don't seem to be half the problem they were as a teenager.

For example, applying for jobs is insane as a teenager because a lot of people are extremely judgy on mere whiffs of superficial appearances. Not cool enough, or too cool can sway some HR people. Don't expect to be vetted by rocket scientists!

Argh! Nightmare memories. I tried to pull off some casual looks that backfired horribly with various employers and interviewers.
