Not sure if this is the right place to post. But here goes.
My partner has just bought a pair of shoes for work, which she completely loves. They're a little unusual so once gone, I'm fairly sure will be gone. She has pretty intense bunions, so shoes tend to break in the fabric earlier than perhaps they should. These ones are suede, however.
I'm considering buying a second pair of the shoes and hiding them so that when these break through (a year? Two?), she doesn't have to spend months trying to find equivalent shoes that she enjoys as much.
Is that mad? The only reason I wouldn't mention it to her (unless she asked about the random shoe box in my cupboard, obviously) would be because she would see it as unnecessary. Probably. And because I quite like surprising her.
My question is: if your partner/wife/husband did this, would you find it weird? Charming?!
Anyone with shoe-breaking bunions have any experience with suede shoe longevity??
