Shoes and shop

[Scott]

I'm sure no one cares about my affinity for being bare footed, but I 
just feel like posting this so...

--I agree. The only thing I hate more than shoe shopping is wearing 
shoes. :-) I'll wear sandals/flip flops, but I can't stand socks and 
shoes. Maybe it's just a regional thing, because none of my friends 
do either.

I wonder what type of shoes Hogwarts kids wear? Are there special 
shoes for Quidditch? Is that to ON-topic for this list?

Whose best pair of heavy leather formal shoes he doesn't want to take 
to England because they are at least 5 or 6 lbs. each and take up 
lots of room (I wear a 12).
