2 weeks ago, my best friend, wife of 10 years, and love of my life left me. I am currently at rock bottom and at the lowest point of my life mentally. I am selling pretty much everything I own to help meet the mortgage on the house we bought together less than a year ago, and had to reluctantly sell the custom made “Shoresy” shoes I purchased this spring.
The man who made the shoes ended up DMing me and had the unbelievable kindness and huge heart to send me these custom made North Stars shoes to replace them.
This gesture was a huge bright spot in the darkest time in my life. I will never forget this, and it gave me hope for the future. I am amazed that a stranger I have never met would show this kind of compassion and generosity. Thank you SO much, u/TheMincy
I will remember this for the rest of my life.

I’m sorry for what you’re going through and I wish you all the best. I’m glad you have an awesome new pair of shoes to wear in this new chapter of your life!! You got this, man.
Holy crap those looks sick as fuck
Loads of support from around the world. Better times will come
Get a job you bum

This is what Christmas is all about
What a great way to start the next chapter in your journey, new kicks for your new life. The symbolism that the North Stars represents is also very fitting for your new adventure. You get to reinvent yourself my man, find your own perspective and always love yourself!
Stay strong bro! Those are some sick kicks
Fuck bitches, get shoes?
Stay strong. Awesome act of kindness.
I know how it is man I physically could not lift my head up. The torment is insane and your organs are replaced with mud. See if you can keep your head propped up just enough to watch these games with us. Man that was the year the Bruins went on a run 2019 too thank God I had that to help get through it. Sorry it happened to you man.
Dope shoes. Good on that guy for doing this.
OP I’m so sorry about what you are going through. I’m so happy to see such kindness in the world in terms of the designer sending you a free pair, and I hope it at least can somewhat bring comfort. 💙
