Lemons Gear: Shoes and Gloves

Name a chick you know who isn’t crazy about shoes, and I’ll buy you a beverage. I have crazy narrow feet and shoe shopping is hugely stressful for me, so no interweb action on this front. I road-tripped over to Summit Racing to try on whatever they had in stock, and G-Force delivered with these mid-tops that actually fit. Bonus: they were a whopping $62 with tax. My budget is looking good, as I’m $38 under my estimate for shoes. Gloves weren’t as easy – with Impact losing their ratings on several products, my favorite gloves were out of the question, and Summit didn’t stock the G-Force gloves I liked in my size. So it’s back to the drawing board there.
