Our buyer, Rich, just got back from the Las Vegas shoe show, where hundreds of brands unveiled their spring lines. He gave me a rundown of the highlights from the show:
-Lizard prints are EVERYWHERE. Dansko's spring Limited Edition professional clog will be a lizard print available in yellow, blue, and green. You'll be able to get a lizard print in pretty much any style and color you like - if you want it, someone will have it!
-MBT is continuing to use their new low-profile sole, as seen in their 2009 collections. They are featuring very sporty styles for the spring.
-Privo is rolling out lots of changes in 2010. They are reducing retail prices across the board, and are debuting MANY new and fresh styles. The new Privos will be out in February, so mark your calendars!
-Romika is bringing back its super-popular Maui base and expanding it with quarter strap options, as well as slides. The Maui line was one of our best sellers, so we'll be glad to have it back!
Next week, we'll cover the first of our brand new fall shoes, which have begun arriving in our stores. Tune in on Friday, same time, same place!

Brand Spotlight: Muraade
The Muraade shoe company was created by Rich Raade, one half of the brother-sister team that owns Superior Shoes. Because our companies are so closely affiliated, we are Muraade experts, and love to find good homes for them! We have the biggest selection of them on the Net, and are the #1 source for Muraade fans everywhere!
Muraades are made in Europe and feature fine Italian leathers, metatarsal pads, and removable leather-lined memory foam insoles on most (though not all) styles. In addition to all that, though, is what makes Muraade unique - the six specially constructed footbeds.
The K line is unique because of its foam polyurethane insole with metatarsal pad. The pad is there to separate the toes and increase circulation between them. The result is less fatigue at the end of the day, giving you more energy. Pictured: Kristen in Blue.
The H line has comfort plus shock absorption. A cork footbed with a shock absorbent heel and arch supports built right in let the shoe conform to your foot. It supports and eases the stress of walking all at the same time. Pictured: Hope in Brick.
The M line is the most decorative line, with jewels and detailing that set them apart. Though not as supportive as some of the other lines, they do have more support than the average shoe, so function meets fashion in these beautiful sandals. Pictured: Pebble in Lime.
The Reflexology line has a cork insole. As they are worn, the foot bed warms up and will conform to your foot (increasing the comfort) over time. Pictured: Jupiter in Yellow.
The Bioflex line is our most popular line! Like the Reflexology line, they feature a removable cork insole. As they are worn, the footbed warms up and will conform to your foot over time. Most styles in the Bioflex line feature supreme adjustability to fit almost any foot. Pictured: Finny in Sand.
The Tempurpedic line by Muraade was designed to bring you instant comfort and relief. The Tempurpedic material takes the shape of your foot when you put it on. This soft and durable material will revive your desire to stand and walk, and its soothing comfort will provide long-lasting enjoyment for you and your feet. Pictured: Violet in Orange.
Muraades have a variety of styles and colors, with an emphasis on comfort, support, and adjustability. The collection is sure to have something for every foot!
