These shoes were new. Only a week old.

Someone has been playing way, way too hard while wearing these shoes, as shown by the huge gaping hole. Ms 4 was at a super hero party wearing spiderman costume when she wrecked them. Either fighting crime was too hard work, or we, her parents, need to buy better quality (pricier?) shoes next time.
