i am starting to think it's the way i walk. this happens to most of my shoes, but when i think about messing up my louboutins because of it, it starts to upset me. is there anyway to avoid scratching up the very tip of your shoes? i think i must drag my foot back when i pick it up to walk, or maybe i just walk on my toes too much or something. i am afraid with enough wears it get bad enough to eat into the leather parts of the shoe and then i will be up sh*t's creek and wear will show on the outside as well as the bottom. it's doing this to my other two pair as well. will vibrims help this at all? any other way to avoid it? am i the only one or is this normal?
