I posted this originally in 2008 but I just thought I'd re-post as I'm in China and working on showing you guys more of the behind the scenes shoe action. ;) Anything in particular you guys wanna know about? Now's the time to ask!!
For now- this is just a diagram of shoe terms. I feel like it maybe common knowledge but I get a few emails now and then asking what an online store means when they mention any of these parts.
Miss you guys!
