I was too embarrassed to ask what vampire bites where in relation to this particular forum...glad someone else had the guts to ask. I just felt super stupid.
I've never seen this kind of thing in the UK on any high end shoes. Maybe I was just lucky to not see such destruction. Who knows. Sucks though.
There is no reason to feel stupid asking a question. A lot of people didn't know what they were. Anytime you aren't sure of something, just ask!
