I HATED those ugly shoes! My 2 older sisters & I had to wear the gawd awful shit brindle- brown colored ones! I remember a couple years after my parents divorced, & I was starting 7th grade, Dad & I went to get my school shoes. And I went to grab a pair of saddles & my Daddy says: " You're NOT getting a pair of those shoes are ya??" ME: "I'm not??? Yeaaaa...Joy Joy!! I instead got my first pair of sling-back pumps!!!! Thank Ya Daddy!!!! A Little funny? PS: My daughter was about 14-15? & wanted a pair of black/white ones for school!!! Who woulda thunk it??!!!

I had a pair when I was in 6th grade and loved them. I remember having to polish them with white liquid shoe polish - the bottle had a foam applicator on it. You had to keep shaking the bottle to keep the liquid mixed. I felt like I was whitewashing my shoes. Funny, I don't ever remember polishing the black 'saddle' part of the shoe.

My mom bought me a pair cause she was a "Bobby-Soxer" & I HATED them cause they rubbed the back of my foot when I walked;I think I finally threw them on a neighborhood lawn while walking home from school.

I always wanted some of these. When they were in fashion I was too young - by my mother's standards, anyway - she bought me sturdy brown leather oxfords that I HATED (except I loved the smell of them drying on the register on rainy November days). But I REALLY wanted saddle shoes, "like the big girls"!

Hated them. I never seemed to grow out of them. I didn't mind penny loafers but really craved rainbow colored sandals. Not practical to the parents though.

Loved them!! That's all I wanted to wear when I was a kid. I had black & white and brown and white. I cried when my mother made me stop buying them and get some mary janes.
