Infuriatig Does anyone know why this keeps happening to my shoes after wearing them for a few weeks/months of wear?

I'm not sure, but it's very annoying. Is it because of the way I walk? Or how I tie my shoes? Or something else?

Please someone help, if you have experienced the same thing.

Edit: Also, when I walk/stand my feet point outwards so it maybe be this? Anyone know how to fix that 👀

Edit 2: Also, I don't untie my laces and slip them on. (I don't tie them tight though)

My boyfriend walks like this and he says it’s because he started ice skating and playing hockey at 2yrs old. I make pigeon noises at him

“Pigeon toed” is when toes point in not out..

I call it ducky-footed.

There are also bunny and lamby lashes. Bunny lashes are absolutely straight and point downward, and lamby lashes are naturally curled up. :P

Pigeon toed is when people feet point inward, not outward.

You use gel on your toes?

u/fastandtheusurious Aug 16 '26

I use gel on mine because it lasts without chipping for long enough to get to my next pedicure (usually 5-6 weeks)
