i have a cure for your ugly shoes and they wont look ugly again.sprinkle petrol on it and set them on fire.when the outer skin is burnt throw water on it.now take a can of spray paint of the colour u like probably pink and spray your shoe.place them on your roof in sunlight for three days and three nights.on the fourth day take them off the roof and mircowave them for 20 minutes at warm which will bring about the leather touch in them.
now u got yourself a nice shinny pair of attractive shoe just out of the shelf.
