In this day of franchise stores and towns that pretty much look the same from one strip mall to the next, Levin's Shoes & Dry Goods, just like the town, Marengo, retain a distinctive homey and personal air.
The owners proudly state, "We emphasize quality, price and service. Customers get individual attention." Levin's even orders merchandise, such as wide width shoes, with particular customers in mind.
As the years passed, the store, which originally sold work boots and bib overalls to farmers, diversified into other lines, including flannel shirts, cotton stockings and dresses. Today, Levin's still sells Oshkosh B'Gosh bibs and American-made work boots, but also offers brands such as Woolrich, Airwalks, and New Balance Athletic shoes.
Recently there has been an increase in demand for wide width shoes of all styles.
Levin's understands the importance of a good-fitting shoe and carries a wide selection of wide width shoes for men, women and children.
The only downfall to this excellent store is that it is only located in Marengo, and as mentioned by the family, "we'll always be in Marengo."
The most convenient option for distant customers is to browse their online website and place orders there.
Customers are able to e-mail an explanation of their athletic needs to the Levin's family and they will respond with various suggestions of wide width shoes.
The wide width shoes that are available to view or order through their online site include;
*The HushPuppy "Mall Walker," is among the first choices for men who need wide width shoes.
The "Mall Walkers" are built with an extra large toe-box and has a longwearing vibrim sole and removable "perma-foam" insole.
It is an excellent dress-casual wide width shoe for men who must have good support for standing or walking long hours on hard surfaces.
*The Wolverine Dura-Shock Slip-Resistant Boots are great for the workingman needing wide width shoes, particularly work boots.
These boots have built in comfort features for all-day wear in EEE widths!
They are made with Wolverine Performance Leather and have a removable full-cushion, dual-density, polymer foot bed.
*New Balance is the only major athletic shoe company in the world that builds a complete line of wide width shoes, from AA to EEEE.
Wide width shoes are available in men's and women's running, tennis, walking, cross training, and basketball. Levin's also carries a wide range of wide width shoes for basketball, tennis, and cross training for children from size three to six.
*Converse All-Star and Converse All-Star High-Tops canvas shoes are a popular and stylish brand of wide width shoes among teenagers.
These shoes are available in variety of colors and sizes for a comparatively low price.
In this day of franchise stores and towns that pretty much look the same from one strip mall to the next, Levin's Shoes & Dry Goods, just like the town, Marengo, retain a distinctive homey and personal air. "Sure we carry a lot of nationally recognized brands such as Levi's and Hush Puppies, " said Levin, "but where else can you get 'Romeo slippers' or wool long-johns?"
Levin's offers the customer a unique selection of high demand products like wide width shoes and helpful, easy purchasing ability.
These features create an atmosphere that consumers enjoy, "a family store."

Inline Skating Exercise Benefits
by: Peter Kudlacz
Inline skating is an enjoyable way to get in shape and stay fit especially on warm sunny days when it's a lot more enjoyable to exercise outdoors than on a treadmill or exercise bike indoors at the gym. These days most cities have nicely paved paths through parkland, beach and waterfront areas to make your rollerblading experience more enjoyable. Unfortunately depending on where you live, you may not be able to or want to rollerblade all year round.
There are many benefits to be derived from inline skating. It's much easier and safer on the knees and back than jogging since your legs aren't taking as much pounding against a hard surface. You don't have to travel as far as cycling to get maximum benefits. Along with a great cardiovascular workout, blading provides you with a fantastic lower body workout by strengthening and toning your thighs, gluteus, calves and hamstrings. It's like doing thousands...

When Should You Hang Up Your Betting Boots for the Day?
When Should You Hang Up Your Betting Boots for the Day?
by: Jess Kirley
? Quit as soon as you are in front for the day?
? Set a stop loss and quit betting for the day if you reach that point?
? Set a profit target and quit as soon as you reach that goal?
? If your first few bets lose, then you should quit because you luck isn't with you today?
? If you win your first few bets then you should quit because you have already used your luck for the day and from now on you must have bad luck?
Sound familiar? I am sure you have heard them all before. Most punters usually will advocate one of the above, or a slight variation of one of the above. They say that this one decision is just as important as the game they are playing or the skills they possess in the game.
Which is correct? Well, if you are a serious long-term player, there is only one answer (well, to be honest, maybe two).

How To Handle A Hard Ride
by: Maricon Williams
As an active rider, I am susceptible to different kinds of weather. The best as we all know is dry and sunny ride. It is good to feel the warmth of the sun under your kin. It is nice to feel free-spirited again and feast your eyes on strange, peculiar and scenic spots in the locality you are driving.
Nonetheless, what makes it a little harder is when the weather turns rainy- wet and slippery. It is quite hard to drive on a rainy season especially without your visors on. We have to be equipped with the right motorcycle accessories and apparel. In fact, you have to be really prepared in order to withstand the weather. We have to weather the weather whether we like it or not.
From helmet, visors/sunglasses to raincoat, latex gloves or waterproof pants, vests and boots ? we got to have them all or else you are going to travel cold, shivering and unable to focus.
On the other hand, I can...

Snowboard Safety: Injury Prevention and Treatment
by: Jeremy Hier
Snowboarding is one of the most popular snow sports and like any other physical activity, it is susceptible to injury. However if the right precautions are taken and the correct protective gear is worn, the body can be protected from any severe injury. Here are a few snowboarding safety tips dealing with common injuries, how to treat those injuries and what can be done to prevent them.
Common Snowboarding Injuries
Snowboarding injuries occur mostly in the upper extremities of the body and the ankle, the most common being sprains followed by fractures and contusions. Upper body injuries are common as snowboarders usually fall forwards or backwards. With a forward fall, snowboarders will protect themselves by stretching their arms outwards to stop themselves from falling. This leads to sprained wrists, wrist fractures, elbow, shoulder and head injuries. If a snowboarder falls...

The Emergent Feminine
The Emergent Feminine
by: Judith Richardson
In the beginning of 1990 I was being guided to explore the nature of feminine and masculine, feeling the shift in the re-emergence of feminine energy. As a storyteller, I am called to "seed" the story, myth, legend through the mediums of words, sound and movement, whereby individuals can choose to become stimulated and awakened.
The historical role of women is often visible only through the records kept by men,...
