Compliment-Worthy Shoes

It's barely after 9, and I already got three separate compliments on my shoes. That's what I call a good morning! (Disregard everything I said about not seeking being liked :)

My pair is a year old, and perfectly broken-in. Even has a couple of cat scratches and marks from being squeezed into bike pedal straps. Is it weird that I love them even more for it?
