I'm so excited, until my grandma sees them and starts commenting on how dirty the footbed is and how expensive they are for $12.99(sidenote don't ever try to explain to an 86 year old that shoes retail for anything over $19.99, all I heard from that moment on was how anyone who'd pay more than $20 for shoes is insane, and the shoes from Giant Tiger are just as good as any other brand). So I ended up leaving them behind just so I wouldn't have to listen to her anymore(which btw didn't work as she didn't stop complaining about the price the whole way home) and am massively regretting not buying them.
