My New Jelly Shoes... After "test drive"...

I've tried my first pair of jelly shoes today...

The bronze pair...

Basically I think it's quite comfortable, cos I walked and stood for more than an hour without resting, and there weren't any blisters on my feet...

First test: 15 mins walk out from my house to the MRT station...
Usually for shoes that bite, my feet would already be blistered and hurting after this... But for this pair there wasn't this problem at all, and they were quite comfy to walk in, through concrete pavement, gravel road, grass and tiled floor...

Second test: 30mins standing on the MRT...
With the usual jerking back and forth of the train, the shoes stood the test and helped me maintain my balance without slipping... And there wasn't any pain on the soles from the standing...

Third test: 30mins shopping...
I did some brief shopping at Daiso after collecting my stuff from Beauty Credit, and on the marble floor in Vivo City, the shoes weren't slippery and had quite good grip... Still no blisters...

Fourth test: 20mins train ride (seated)

Nothing much, since I was seated...

Fifth test: 30mins walking from MRT to my grandpa's house...
I got lost, took the wrong exit, and walked extra long to find a way to walk back to my grandpa's house... The shoes were still comfortable and there was only a slight bit of discomfort on my right foot's small toe, when I reached my grandpa's house...

Sixth test: 15mins strolling around the neighbourhood with my baby cousin...
Had to bring my cousin out to distract him from disturbing his mum while she was preparing her dish for father's day... So I took him around the neighbourhood in search of doggies... After finding 9 dogs around the neighbourhood, and 3 multi-colored flower windmills (in different households, but they were exactly the same)... We walked back to the house... Still some discomfort on the right foot's small toe, and a small blister on the top of the right foot, under the big toe, where the opening of the shoe was... That's all...



Not bad for a first time wear... Didn't really have much blisters and pain... So... For someone who easily gets blisters...

I give this pair of jelly shoes 8.5/10...
