I’m sure you know them, pitt-pitt shoes, more aptly known as squeaky shoes. Those ones that go “pitt-pitt-pitt-pitt-pitt-pitt-pitt………pitt-pitt-pitt….pitt-pitt”. Tee outgrew her first pair very quickly. At the time, I hadn’t even realised what I’d purchased as she’d tried them on at a very noisy place so any “pitt-pitt” was deafened. She immediately took a liking to them and boy, are they the most annoying, irritating, headache-inducing pair of shoes!
I did however find one positive trait about it – I could actually HEAR where she was while I shopped. Now surely that was handy. After her first pair, we returned to the same store for a larger pair but they didn’t make them anymore. Tee would ask for her “pitt-pitt” shoes every time she remembered so much so that my mother trotted all the way and found one from Hong Kong. Except that….these weren’t cute kiddy sounding “pitt-pitt” slippers. They were trailer truck horns.
Are things that noisy in Hong Kong? After 2 severe migraines, we decided to put the Honky Foot Horns to rest and were back to square one. Then to our dismay but Tee’s delight, we found another pair similar to the first, weeks later.
Tee insists on wearing them more often than not and I always discourage her but still, I have an iron willed daughter.
Today, at a hotel lounge, a couple moved tables to be away from us. I could understand why. Later, the man (in his fifties) came up to me to say “Those are very annoying shoes!” It was his tone of voice and rudeness that impulsed me to retort, “Well, at least I know where she is!” and I wanted to add, “I find YOU annoying and you should go back to your country, wherever that is!”
