I'm less comfortable in stilettos than I am in running shoes.

A shoe has so much more to offer than just to walk.

I believe in keeping running simple and, in regard to shoes, that would mean no gimmicks, unnecessary cushioning, etc.

You want to fall in love with a shoe, go ahead. A shoe can't love you back, but, on the other hand, a shoe can't hurt you too deeply either. And there are so many nice-looking shoes.

Sometimes I hate a shoe in seconds.

I'm not a runner, and I always dreamed about just throwing on my sneakers and really knocking everyone's socks off with my joy of traversing the world by foot.

You cannot put the same shoe on every foot.

I'm very painful to deal with when I create a shoe.

If the shoe fits, it's too expensive.

I'd already decided I wanted to design shoes after I saw a sign in the Museum of African and Oceanic Art forbidding high heels. Well, who could resist?
