The G.L.B.Z. Sandals

Gabe has become a great embarrassment ever since his maternal grandparents decided on a pair of squeaky footwear for him. The squeaks are SO LOUD you'll hear him within the radius of 500 li (translate to Chinese please).

We turn heads everywhere we go (unfortunately not because of a chio mother), and get a smirk on almost every face when they discover what or in this case, who is causing all the racket.

The worst part is, the boy has discovered that once he stops walking, the squeaks stop too. So even when we're in the lift, or along corridors waiting for the lift, he'll go marching on the spot. Note the surround-sound effect in these cases.

So, derod has called this pair of sandals the Gia Lang Buay Zai sandals.
