This! I mean, as a Chi Omega I don't have that problem too much but I was relieved to find no Chi O shoes on that site! hahaha

Don't be so happy, darlin'. They've been licensed for all NPC groups. I can't hardly wait to see what they do for Chi O and all the rest of us who've not been "lucky" enough yet to have our prototypes photographed and posted. But it's coming, I'm sure.

And, in the spirit of equal treatment, I propose this for our fraternity men. The possibilities are endless. Mystic Cat, care to weigh in?

*settling in with coffee and sweet rolls, I'm waiting...tap, tap, tap*

OH BOY!! I do love a man in a skirt, especially on a windy day

I refuse to believe that these hideous shoes have been legitimately licensed by all 26 NPCs. I have more faith that our Nationals wouldn't stoop to this for a buck.

I seriously doubt (inter)national offices had any input on this at all. The whole point of Greek Licensing is to have an agent of the GLOs -- Affinity Marketing -- deal with the vendors and send the royalties to the GLOs so HQs don't have to worry with it. The licenses are good for a year, so my guess is that GLOs can request the license not be renewed, but can't do much else unless these violate the terms of the agreements with the vendors.

No, no, no. (Or nae, nae, nae.) Please do not compare kilts, even utilikilts, with CFM shoes. Thank you.

How about these?
