Not seen em.

I am more concerned about these weird shoe/slipper things that look like they are made of net.

PetronellaPinkPants · 26/04/2007 15:51

Not seen those I don't think
I keep worrying that people have forgotten to put their laces in

Sorry Porcupine - meant the ones with backs - mine are Converse. I noticed though that Peacocks have identical looking ones for £8 though but not in my nice green colour.
these are mine
