![a pair of running shoes.](http://s3.media.squarespace.com/production/954412/11042983/tenos.jpg)
I just received my new kicks by way of Zappos.com. They rock hard, but what I'm really impressed by was my first experience shopping from this online shoe purveyor.
I placed the order for my shoes on Saturday and paid $15 for 2nd day shipping so I could receive them by this Wednesday before my trip to Paris (despite my flat feet running shoes, with their light weight and good cushioning, are ideal for trekking about an old city in my opinion). Well I received an email from Zappos on Saturday evening informing me that they were upgrading my shipping for free! Sunday I received my UPS tracking number, and they shipped it on Sunday afternoon! Now I'm wearing the new pair, and I'm so impressed by the seller that I may start buying most of my shoes from them in the future.
Rock on.
