Women's Travel Shoes - Making the Right Choice
When the idea for this article was originally conceived, my purpose was to do some research and then give practical advice on the best shoes to buy and wear while traveling. Shoes seemed like a relevant topic as even an experienced traveler such my girl friend admits "I take too many pairs of shoes with me when I travel and even then I sometimes don't have the right pair." I found, not only are shoes a relevant topic for women travelers, shoes are an interesting topic period-a search on shoe topics on the Internet led to me to their history, fascinating facts and photos of a lot of great looking shoes.
So, while I did locate some solid advice on choosing comfortable shoes for traveling (see below), I felt compelled, almost obsessed it seemed, to continue delving into the topic of shoes. Below is only some of what my research revealed.
Some Shoe Facts
The average American woman owns 30 pairs of shoes-the average male 4. 8 1/2 to 9 is the size the average American woman wears.35% of U.S. women wear larger than a size 9 (including celebrity Paris Hilton who cruises around in size 11). A recent study in Britain revealed that 4 in 10 women have bought shoes which they have never worn. This translates into over 0 million (U.S. dollars) in unworn shoes (the article was written by a man).
Some Shoe History
Scientists speculate the first shoes were made from animal skins during the Ice Age to protect feet. The biggest find of shoes from prehistory belonged to Native Americans in Missouri and date back to 8000 BC.By the time of the ancient Egyptians, shoes, in the form of sandals, became more than just foot protection and were used to display wealth and power.Marie Antoinette had 500 pairs of shoes. One servant's sole job was to catalog her shoes by color, date and style.At least 6 pairs of ruby slippers were made for the film the Wizard of Oz, 4 of which survive today. One pair is on display at the Smithsonian and another pair sold at a Christie's auction for 5,000.What did I conclude from this widely jumbled assortment of information? First, the Internet can be a fathomless depth and I need to learn when to back away from the computer. Second, despite how often the word "obsession" occurred during my Internet research on women and shoes, the topic will always fascinate me.
Choosing the Right Shoes to Wear While Traveling
Feet endure tremendous pressures during daily living. An average day of walking brings a force equal to several hundred tons to your feet. During a trip you'll be on your feet and walking even more than usual. The success of your trip could depend on having a comfortable pair of shoes. Unless you're going hiking on poorly maintained trails in the wilderness, walking or running shoes are best. Below are some tips from the American Podiatric Medical Association for buying the right shoes and getting the best fit.
It sounds elementary, but be sure the widest part of your foot corresponds to the widest part of the shoe. Be sure that shoes fit well-front, back, and sides-to distribute weight. Shop for shoes later in the day; feet tend to swell during the day, and it's best to be fitted while they are in that state.Try on shoes while you're wearing the same type of socks you expect to wear with the shoes.Don't rely on the size of your last pair of shoes. Your feet do get larger and sizes vary.Have your feet measured while you're standing. Always buy for the larger foot; feet are seldom precisely the same size. Always try on both shoes, and walk around the store. Don't buy shoes that need a "break-in" period; shoes should be comfortable immediately.
Don't Forget the Socks
Your choice of socks is also important. Sports podiatrists frequently recommend padded socks of acrylic fiber. Acrylic fibers tend to "wick" away excessive perspiration, which active feet can produce from 250,000 sweat glands at a rate of four to six ounces a day, or even more (yuk).

Choosing a Vintage Arsenal Football Shirt - A Look at 3 Arsenal Retro Shirts From the Past
There have been many reasons for Arsenal fans to celebrate over the years and there is usually a vintage Arsenal football shirt to commemorate these achievements. A cabinet full of trophies have been won during the reigns of George Graham and Arsene Wenger, but let us not forget the great Arsenal teams from the past, who also won their fair share of trophies as well, and did it wearing awesome looking Arsenal retro shirts.
When you think of a vintage Arsenal football shirt you will naturally imagine the red shirt with white sleeves, made famous by the likes of Pat Rice, Charlie George and the incredible Liam Brady. However, it might be a surprise to find out that many of the Arsenal retro shirts from the past were not variations of this red and white strip at all.
Below we take a look at three Arsenal retro shirts from the club's glorious past.
Arsenal 1971 Double Winners shirt
Having won the League title by beating their North London rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal faced Liverpool in the 1971 FA Cup Final knowing that a victory would earn them the coveted "Double", a feat that had been achieved for the first time in 1961, by Spurs. The game was won by the Gunners, 2-1 after extra time, with Charlie George scoring the winner.
In the away colours of yellow and blue, this really is a great looking Arsenal football shirt, featuring the club's cannon logo, which has a little picture of the FA Cup above it. These Arsenal retro shirts look cool with a pair of jeans and is a must buy for any Gunners fan.
Arsenal 1970's long sleeve shirt
These Arsenal retro shirts are far more in the style you would expect from a vintage Arsenal football shirt. It was the red body with long white sleeves that was the home kit for most of the decade, with the only real change being the v-neck getting replaced by a round neck design.
Amongst the many legends who wore this shirt, perhaps the best loved was Liam Brady, the Republic of Ireland star who made 235 appearances for the club, between 1973 and 1980, scoring 43 goals.
Arsenal 1989 Championship shirt
These Arsenal retro shirts were of course made famous by that infamous game against Liverpool, in 1989, without doubt the most exciting moment ever in Arsenal's history. Arsenal needed to win the game by 2 clear goals, in order to clinch the title from Liverpool and achieved "Mission Impossible" at Anfield when Michael Thomas, wearing number 4, scored in the 89th minute. Again this is a yellow away shirt, but this one has navy blue sleeves and is sponsored by JVC.
