For "Left"
This one is for "Right". Hack on!
DSC01195 by &mark.
I've made little signs for myself so that I don't need to spend the time wondering if I'm about to put on the wrong shoe. I used Microsoft Word with bolded, 100 point Trebuchet for the font. I cut the squares using my excellent pair of Mundial scissors (660-8.5 NE). After I've put on my shoes, I clip my L & R into my hipster PDA. I used Roaring Spring Paper Products Index Cards. YMMV.

Funny, we did just this for our children when they were younger. Maybe you're remembering your youth? ;-)

Maybe I'm missing something, but how is this an improvement? You have to do all this work with computers and printers and Trebuchet and scissors, then figure out which shoe to put which letter in. Isn't the part of figuring out which shoe to put each letter in the same part you'd perform to just put the shoes on the correct feet?

Yeah. better to make letters out of holes punched through some bright-color insoles or something.
