Yeah! It could only be found at Bata or Lennard then, back then, in my secondary school, we werent permitted to use rubber sandal, so, this is what most of used then, very durable, i used mine for 2 years+ before it became an under-sized for me........lol but, i think recently, i have started seeing it again on school girls o, but, just few girls, maybe, its back again. 2 Likes |
