I have been wearing pictured shoes for a while in the office. When I meet someone, I will change to the dress shoes. This shoes looked very comfortable and flexible ... I thought it was a great design. Many people complemented as well.

But those shoes have design problem. I am sure designers and manufacturer did not realized when they produced them. The problem is ... this shoes pick up small stones. I always see few small stone in my car and in my office. I was wondering where they came from ... now I know.

Designing a product and using it in the real life is different. This happens a lot in our software development industry.
