As it seems so many things are these days (Im nothing if not late to the Facebook party) this post was sparked by a thread on Facebook.
A thread about the sad icky state of my feet (Ill spare you the link. You’re glad. Take my word for it.) & how I wondered it some of it could be caused my CONSTANT flip-flop wearing.
Constant.
I was generously offered the chance to try Teva Mush shoes by a Facebook friend who firmly believed they were the answer to my icky feet woes (FTC? The shoes were free! The photo-montage & opinions are all my own) .
Full shoes which offered the comfynessment of my beloved flip-flops.
I was a skeptic—till I was a believer.
I was smitten upon releasing the Teva Mush from their cardboard confines.
Love. Love. Love.
Of course having feet which sweat like a mo’ fo’ residing in Texas this little sticker immediately caught my eye:
I slipped em on and commenced admiring myself:
Then, being the focused freelancer I am, I immediately got back to work:
Next, because I do rock the self-care, I took a break and tested the Mush shoes’ relaxing capacity inside :
And
outside:
Id already given them MY MizFit seal of approval and, when the Tornado came home from kinder she (excited because “we now!almost!match!mama!”) eagerly bestowed hers as well:
Bottom line?
I love my Mush. Comfy, lightweight, cool, & not stinky. My misfit definition of heaven in a shoes. AND I want the purple pair. BAD.
Bottom bottom line?
I couldnt experience the love without procuring one of you the chance to try the…love.
A USA or CANADA one of you*

Lettie says

Alaina says
September 16, 2011 at 3:33 amOutside in the grass.

MizFit says
September 16, 2011 at 4:30 amyesyesyesyesyes 🙂
Irene says
September 16, 2011 at 4:04 amI remember that Facebook thread 🙂
If I win I would pick the black and wear them to work.
Then I would probably buy the purple for play 🙂
Cammy@TippyToeDiet says
September 16, 2011 at 4:07 amWhy, I’d wear them on my feet, of course. 🙂
Okay, I’ll be over here sitting in the corner. Sheesh, people can’t take a joke….
Miz says
September 16, 2011 at 4:10 amfreakin hilarious. seriously.
Tess says
September 16, 2011 at 4:09 amKINDERGARTEN!!!! I am a teacher’s assistant in kindergarten and LOVE it. BUT it daoes require “on the move feet” and “closed toed shoes”. Because for some funny reason Kindergaretn children like to walk on top of teachers’ feet 🙂 I also work up a bit of a sweat on the playground so these shoes will help control the auroma that comes with a little play. They are also adorable ansd appropriate for school. Thanks for the chance and the introduction to Teva Mush.
Donna says
September 16, 2011 at 4:09 amI would wear them to get my new tattoo commemorating 30 pounds lost!
Laurie says
September 16, 2011 at 4:25 amFirst thought: are they stinky?
You answered that.
Second thought: is there an arch?
If so, I would wear them EVERYWHERE: to the bus stop, and the grocery store and the Target and the Trader J’s and the bank and the Michael’s and the playground and the living room and the kitchen…..perhaps all, but the office.
Miz says
September 16, 2011 at 4:28 amId go with a bit of an arch Laurie. Definitely not shoes youd wear all day, say , in the operating room were you a DOC 🙂 but kicking around town? PERFECTION.
Tom says
September 16, 2011 at 4:29 amI will be the male who says he would love this for his wife to replace her old ratty slippers 🙂
Thanks MizFit!
Marzipan says
September 16, 2011 at 4:35 amThese shoes are PERFECT for all manner of commuting in stylish comfort, skipping about town doing errands merrily, and dressing up and down. That’s my kind of shoe.
Jana says
September 16, 2011 at 4:40 amHow do you get some many comments early morning?!
I am heading to the office where I would wear my new Tevas if I win!
Runner Girl says
September 16, 2011 at 4:53 amAfter my run of course!
Barbara says
September 16, 2011 at 4:53 amI would wear them to pick up my kids from school. They would go perfectly with all my yoga pants!
Kim says
September 16, 2011 at 5:01 amI would wear them everywhere! I love, love, love shoes!!!!
Healthy Mama says
September 16, 2011 at 5:02 amI love when you do the photo-montages like this 🙂
I would wear them to soccer while the twins play and I sit.
Frannie says
September 16, 2011 at 5:03 amI still wonder if I could get them to stink.
It’s so stinking hot here in Dallas.
I would wear them after Bikram.
lindsay says
September 16, 2011 at 5:04 ami want the mush! The real question is, where would I not where them?!
Reen says
September 16, 2011 at 5:26 amWell, I’d wear them to work, of course! Working at home gives me the benefit of wearing whatever I want. Since I’m a barefoot gal, my feet have taken a beating. These look awesome and I would LOVE be sporting them around “the office”.
Crabby McSlacker says
September 16, 2011 at 5:27 amThose look quite cute on both you and Tornado!
I need a bit more arch support, so I’ll donate my chance to a more deserving reader, but what a great giveaway.
Angi says
September 16, 2011 at 5:33 amI would wear mine in between fitness/spinning classes to give my stank sneaker feet a rest!
Jeanette says
September 16, 2011 at 5:51 amThose shoes are so cute! They look extremely comfortable!! You and lil tornado are too adorable! 🙂
Andie says
September 16, 2011 at 5:52 amI love the pics but where did you find green grass in Austin?!
I would wear the black ones everywhere!
Andie says
September 16, 2011 at 5:53 amI should stop reading your blog 😉 it makes me want more ink.
Tami says
September 16, 2011 at 6:00 amI would wear them at work, and give my feet a need break from the dreaded “work shoes”.
Melissa says
September 16, 2011 at 6:07 amI love the Mush! I’d wear them to work. I’m a massage therapist and I work hard to battle my client’s tight muscles. This makes for a warm therapist. I hate wearing socks so the agion is a good thing!
merrymishaps says
September 16, 2011 at 6:11 amPretty sure I’d wear them everywhere 🙂
I have been a huge fan of Teva Mush flip flops for years, so I wonder if these feel like my beloved flips on the inside!
Katie says
September 16, 2011 at 6:21 amI would wear them everywhere pretty much. BUt sadly, only in my house until spring because it is COLD out right now. Boo.
Ollie says
September 16, 2011 at 6:26 amEverywhere.
It is getting to cold for flip flops already.
Love the tattoo, Carla.
Joanna says
September 16, 2011 at 6:33 amI have the same sweaty feet problem – could this finally be my answer to not causing my family to grab oxygen masks when I walk in the door from work?
I’d love to try them out – for the sake of myself, and my poor family. 😉
Coco says
September 16, 2011 at 6:36 amI would wear them through the airport to go home because I can’t wait for this trip to be over! 😉
Lara says
September 16, 2011 at 6:37 amWhile I watch FOOTBALL 🙂
april says
September 16, 2011 at 6:40 amOh, I loooove shoes like this. Little slip-on tennies? Yes, please!
Kimberley says
September 16, 2011 at 6:43 amWork, home, yoga, just about anywhere! Great giveaway…thanks Miz!!!
Fab Kate says
September 16, 2011 at 6:45 amWANT…WANT!
It’s that time of year when my volunteer work with the zoo involves being up in front of kids for 6 or more hours straight rather than just an hour or two at a time. Walking back and forth with the king snake in my hands, comfy shoes are a MUST… and these look perfect. And in the brown, they’ll go with my safari print uniform vest!
Yup, it’s fall, and people are looking to closed shoes, but these would also be year-round for me. No flip flops at work!
The best part of this is that I can see wearing these all the time… to church even! bus… walk… bus… walk… that’s my day almost every day, so comfort is a MUST!
Hannah (Balancing on Two Feet) says
September 16, 2011 at 6:51 amI would wear them in my house, outside…everywhere. Maybe even while asleep?
Christine says
September 16, 2011 at 6:51 amI love the shoes.
If I don’t win I’ll have the blues.
🙂
Dani says
September 16, 2011 at 6:59 amI would wear them straight to the farmer’s market!
Cara @ This Is Where I Come Up With Something Witty says
September 16, 2011 at 7:01 amThese are so cute! I have old teva sandals that I wear quite a bit when doing wet outdoors activities like kayaking or lake swimming. I love them! I would wear these cute shoes to the bus stop, to the grocery, to the park, to class, and well pretty much anywhere!
Erin says
September 16, 2011 at 7:02 amYa I wear Skechers Shape Ups and I love them, but I also have some MAJOR calluses on my big toes from all the plyo work I do. I guess that means all my weight is in my toes.
Alexandra says
September 16, 2011 at 7:13 amI’d wear them all day, everyday… chasing after my girls during the day and the boys at night!! 😉
Melissa E. says
September 16, 2011 at 7:22 amI would were them all the time! I could where them when I run out on errands and when we spend the day antiquing. I am always looking for comfy shoes and these look like they would fit the bill.
Julie says
September 16, 2011 at 7:22 amWell I just took a look and i’m in love! I would wear these everywhere, to work and not just for the commute ;), to school, before and after yoga, to the park with our children, to the zoo, seriously everywhere. Thanks for this post!!
Julie Reichert says
September 16, 2011 at 7:25 amI’d wear them all the time. I do an awful lot of running around with 3 kids, so they would get lots of good use. I won’t wear anything that’s not comfortable, that’s for sure.
addy says
September 16, 2011 at 7:29 amI hate shoes! Really all types. Would wear them anywhere foot coverings are required. Maybe I could drive in them even….
Joyce Cherrier says
September 16, 2011 at 7:38 amLove them! They look so cool and comfy! *throwing up the sweaty feet gang sign*
Helen DoingA180 says
September 16, 2011 at 7:38 amThey look like the perfect shoe to run weekend errands in and to slip my sweaty Muay Thai feet into after class.
Gita says
September 16, 2011 at 7:42 amI won’t ever lie to you Miz. I’d wear them to the movies!
Gina says
September 16, 2011 at 7:42 amThey look like great shoes. To be honest, I’m not a flip flop fan (I don’t like my feet being so exposed) – so these seem like a great, casual, summer alternative.
Lisa says
September 16, 2011 at 8:02 amUmm, EVERYWHERE! They look great 🙂
Of course I wouldn’t be rocking them in the full leg tattoo, but they look like a super comfy shoe for the mommy of 5 that I now am.
Tyna says
September 16, 2011 at 8:05 amIt is sad how happy I got at the antimicrobial info 🙂
Stephanie says
September 16, 2011 at 8:09 amI’d probably wear them on my feet. And then bring my feet to the river where I’d throw sticks for the dog and paddle a canoe.
Shannon says
September 16, 2011 at 8:12 amThese shoes would not be neglected. They would have the busy live of traveling from classes to class, shuffling around work, and enjoying some nature walks.
Kerri O says
September 16, 2011 at 8:13 amheaven in a shoe…that’s just how I feel about my new lightweight running shoes 😉
Ann says
September 16, 2011 at 8:19 amAaaaah, I have spent my entire last five summers in a pair of Tevas and I have been looking to replace them, but they don’t make the style I fell in love with. They are FANTASTIC to me because they have excellent arch support. Plus, they’re washable so I would wear them…..
in the shower!!
Liz says
September 16, 2011 at 8:25 amI would be like you in the outside shot!
Lauren says
September 16, 2011 at 8:32 amOmg, I would wear them everywhere! I’m always on the lookout for barefoot-ish, comfy shoes!
Erin says
September 16, 2011 at 8:33 amI would wear them on the weekend running errands. I have one pair of nice shoes for work and usually end up wearing grubby shoes all weekend. I’d love some cute and comfortable shoes.
Hollee says
September 16, 2011 at 8:34 amI’d wear them all of the places I won’t be able to wear my fitflops now that it is getting cold!
Steff says
September 16, 2011 at 8:35 amI would wear those things everywhere! I had a pair of Teva sandals that I wore until they were threadbare…which took years!
Bethany says
September 16, 2011 at 8:36 amI would wear them to run errands and prettyuch everything else!!!!
Allison says
September 16, 2011 at 8:36 amI would wear them to the bus stop…better than my husbands way too big crocks.
Sara says
September 16, 2011 at 8:38 amI wear them as comfy winter house shoes.
Barb says
September 16, 2011 at 8:45 amI would take them to Mexico…sadly I am not really a travel kind of gal due to cash constraints but happily I have saved the dough to go international. I could travel in style AND comfort with Mush shoes 🙂
Jolene says
September 16, 2011 at 8:51 amI’d love to try a pair. I’ve struggled for years trying to find work shoes that wouldn’t kill my feet or sweat like crazy. So far.. i wear the forbidden flip flops everyday. If only I could wear heals but these sound awesome.
Tracy P says
September 16, 2011 at 9:02 amI’d wear them to my Yoga classes and Shopping!
Jill says
September 16, 2011 at 9:06 amUm…where WOULDN’T I wear them? I’m a super casual kinda gal, even have a super cazh dress code at work, so I’m pretty sure these would be my go-to shoes for everything. 🙂
Colleenzo says
September 16, 2011 at 9:16 amI’d wear them on the way home from the gym every day, when my feet DESERVE a little TLC!
debby says
September 16, 2011 at 9:19 amOh brother, that is a lot of comments already! I do love Tevas, have been a fan for a long time. And if I don’t win, I think I’ll have to go and get myself another pair!
Leslie Elsaifi says
September 16, 2011 at 9:30 amI’d wear mine everywhere! Work, around the house, to the movies, on a walk!
Quix says
September 16, 2011 at 9:32 amCurious, how were they for walking? I have this magical pair of sandals that can get me about 3 miles without hurting my feet. And uh, you had me at PURPLE.
Miz says
September 16, 2011 at 9:35 amI’d say ambling about town more than a 3 mile power walk 😉 and I know. I sooooo want those purpley ones now too
Vonnie says
September 16, 2011 at 9:36 amPost-PILATES for my tired feet and bod.
Elizabeth J. says
September 16, 2011 at 10:46 amI would try to get away with wearing them to work in a law office!
Rachel says

Christine says

Stacie says
September 16, 2011 at 11:21 amI too suffer the curse of the sweaty feet (lovely), so would appreciate the anti-microbial feature! Not to mention the fact that they’re pretty darn cute.
Chelsea J says
September 16, 2011 at 11:22 amI would wear these in the lab where I work. I’m in need of something cute to wear with slacks or a skirt, because my sneakers aren’t cutting it.
Jana says
September 16, 2011 at 11:24 amSlippers in winter and every day in the spring 🙂
Phoebe says
September 16, 2011 at 11:27 amI will wear them in the ravine paths near my home. THanks for the opportunity!
Jo Anna says
September 16, 2011 at 12:13 pmTo the playground with the little one!
Jody - Fit at 53 says
September 16, 2011 at 12:30 pmUmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, can you say that with my ugly feet, I could wear everywhere.. well if the padding was OK.. do they have decent padding in them due to my bad feet…. and are they WIDE! Me & my wide feet & bunions!!!
If they are not wide Miz, & you pick me, you can pick another as I need WIDE!!!!
How cute they are & look on you.. course love the pic with Tornado too!
tony says
September 16, 2011 at 1:01 pmHow about everywhere? Especially if they were brown, cause then I could wear them to my job!
Bari says
September 16, 2011 at 1:07 pmI would wear them EVERYWHERE! They look so comfy and cute 🙂
Shelley B says
September 16, 2011 at 1:43 pmFunky shoes! I’d wear them everywhere EXCEPT to/from the pool. The chlorine has done a number on my purple flips – one pair of shoes sacrificed is enough!
Marie says
September 16, 2011 at 3:57 pmOn a stroll to the mailbox would be the first stop!
Lindsey says
September 16, 2011 at 4:27 pmI would wear my prize from the fridge to the couch. Livin the lazy life!
KCLAnderson (Karen) says
September 16, 2011 at 4:29 pmI would wear them to….kettlebell in! Kettlebelling requires bare feet and while I prefer bare feet, in the colder climes of Connecticut winters, these would be just the ticket!
Tina says
September 16, 2011 at 4:31 pmAll weekend long. I love the brown!
Annie says

September 16, 2011 at 6:52 pmi’d wear them to work to do cell culture 😉
Lauren P. says
September 16, 2011 at 7:40 pmI wonder if they feel like the Mush flip flops? I’m always down for comfy shoes. I’ve been living in my Vibrams these days.
SharonF says
September 16, 2011 at 7:51 pmI would wear them shopping. My feet always hurt after a long day of spending money!!
Erin says
September 16, 2011 at 8:00 pmTo the tune of scooby Doo:
Mush-ey Mush-ey shoe, I love you! I would LOVE to…wear you!!
Mush-ey Mush-ey shoe, I love you! My stinky FEET admire you!!
O what would I do?
Do with you?
I’d wear you LIKE no other shoe.
To the grocery store
And so much more…

s says
September 17, 2011 at 6:39 amI’d wear them to lab … they’d sure beat flip flops (which I can’t wear in lab, but wear at my desk most days.)
kristen says

Katherine says

Marcy says
September 17, 2011 at 11:58 amThese look COOL!!! My daughter recently got the Vibrams… I would LOVE to give these a try!
Cynthia (It All Changes) says
September 17, 2011 at 3:25 pmThese would be a great pair of shoes to wear with my summer dresses and with tights as the weather gets cooler. I love comfy flats.
Jane says
September 17, 2011 at 3:37 pmTo work!!!
Lorinda @ Waisting Away says
September 17, 2011 at 5:11 pmThey look like perfect weekend shoes. And can replace my fave Teva flip flops during the cooler fall weather. Thanks for including us Canucks!!
Tena says
September 17, 2011 at 8:14 pmI usually wear flip flops to run errands on the weekend but I’d love to try the mush! So cute I might even wear them to work 🙂
Janet Oberholtzer says
September 18, 2011 at 6:53 amGreat post … love your freelancing hard-working style 🙂
Ever since my feet were injured (along with most of the rest of me) in an accident, I must have bought a hundred pairs of shoes looking for some that won’t hurt my feet and/or give me blisters and the Mush shoes look like they might work. Would love to try them and I’d wear them everywhere!
kat says
September 18, 2011 at 9:05 amThey look perfect to wear from the office to yoga class!
Heather @ Not a DIY Life says
September 18, 2011 at 10:45 amI would wear them in a box, I would wear them with a fox. I would wear them in the rain, I would wear them on a train. I would wear them on a boat, I would wear them with a goat.
You get the idea. I’m like you, I would wear flip-flops year round. I’d love to try these 🙂
Karen says
September 18, 2011 at 10:45 amWhere wouldn’t I wear them!!! 🙂

😉
Dynamics says
September 18, 2011 at 1:54 pmSince they do not have purple I would have to get pool blue, although my monitor does not show it as blue. What’s up with that?
ROse says
September 19, 2011 at 4:41 pmLooks like a good recovery shoe for after workouts and such.
tax relief says
