I found these at the Vans corner of a large ABC Mart in Shinjuku a few years ago, and I bought them because the all-black glitter design, from the sole to the inside, was so cute. Maybe the timing was bad... I bought them just before winter, so I switched to boots and they ended up sleeping in the shoe closet. I'm not sure how many times I wore them, but I think I only wore them for about two weeks, from autumn to the start of winter.
