My pair of white duty (Natasha) shoes is starting to wear out. There are some slits at the front and back and it is not so white anymore. I still use it when I wear the white pants when we have the case colloquium in school.
But since I use white skirt and blouse in the hospital, I started using the white duty shoes with shoestring but it is tight on my toes. My 4th toe even gets numb because I always walk around the ward.
Today after the mass, I told my sister that we search for a cheap pair of white duty shoes. My colleague Miss CC told me about a shoe store, and so we went. I was able to buy this cheap pair for P120 only. It is rubber and also lightweight.
For sure there will be walking and running again.
What is the cheapest pair of shoes that you have worn?

oh no offense to them, but what I mean are their low quality products which usually flooded in our country. Of course, not all of their products, I like the Oppo.

I guess the cheapest shoes that I got are hand me downs from friends who are sneaker heads. They just have too many shoes that they need to give away to make some room for a couple new pairs.

I am thinking....
Most of the shoes I own are over a thousand and the cheapest ones could be a pair from Payless or Crocs. Oh, wait, I have pairs that cost 200 baht when I was in Thailand. They didn't last long though. And I left them in Bangkok. I think I have three pairs that were only 200 baht but I don't have them with me anymore.

I have three sleepers now, because the other two are already thin after using them for so many years. The latest one I bought it for 150, which is more expensive.

The cheapest shoes I wore was a TT $30.00 (5.00 US) and that was some 40 years ago. Nothing around that price range anymore. Hard time. happy you found something comfortable. Cherish it!

Can't remember the price, but it's something similar to the ones in your picture.
