Feet don't fail me now

“Feet, don't fail me now!” is an old expression that's usually said when someone is running away from peril- they do not want to slow down so that they will be trapped or caught, and are self-encouraging themselves to keep going. In the song, it's used more as an excuse to keep dancing and not get tired.

WOF (Without Fails)

Like our most trusted confidante, the person who knows you best, there are certain pieces of clothing or accessories that you turn to over and over again because they inexplicably tell the story of who you are. No matter what new modern piece you’re experimenting with, the WOFs are the items that, without fail, will still keep you grounded. Yourself. They are the narrative thread that connects the dots between your HTH and I&O pieces. Without them, you can feel rudderless.
Person 1: These joggers have never failed me. I wear them all the time and feel confident in them.

Person 2: Would you go as far as to call them a WOF (Without Fails)?

Person 1: Absolutely I would.
