When you buy a new pair of shoes, you tie them up to just the right tightness one time, and then after that you just mash your feet in, never untying them. amirite?

take the 's' off 'shoes' and re-read it.

I can't do that with my high-top Converses. But other than that, this is correct.

I like the use of the word "mash".

Yeah, and once the laces come undone, they never stay tied again.
