Day 34 of 365: Brannock device



Look what I got to play with! It's the thing they use to measure your feet for shoes. Who knew that it had a name?! There's actually a technique to using it correctly! :)

Neither have I! More like 35 years, to be honest. They used to freak me out when I was a child. I hated strangers touching my feet and using that ... that ... DEVICE ... on me!

I'm sorry to have brought back such unpleasant memories Helen! Luckily, we have our customers put on fresh socks before we have to measure their feet!
