I was really disappointed on how the loafers were not that durable as it seemed, but I somehow managed to fix it with super glue... So all is well. I just need to be careful when purchasing online because I'm really guilty of getting swayed easily with visuals (just as I get easily swayed with my anime husbandos visuals ahahha). Anyway, lesson learned: Be more careful in unfamiliar places because we never knew when we'll overstep the boundaries we didn't need to.
Btw, thanks for stopping by @omokhafue!
