They have long held a symbolism for me that is negative. They are very expensive, ugly and seemed to be used as some kind of status symbol for a long time.
But, I have a problem with my feet and it has been highly recommended that I wear them.
So I praise them and pray to them that they will resolve some of my problems, lol.
