Super Tiny shoes for Grandma

A 90-year-old woman in Shanghai received a special New Year’s gift from her son and daughter-in-law – brand-new size 33 leather shoes.

The woman, surnamed Chen, was born in 1917, and during her youth, foot binding was still a social custom for women. So, Chen’s feet are very small.

Chen’s granddaughter recently celebrated her 22nd birthday, and her parents gave her a pair of custom-made shoes. Chen envied her granddaughter’s present, so the daughter-in-law started to seek a factory that made shoes small enough for Chen.

She found the Xiaohuayuan Shoe Factory in Shanghai, which took the order for Chen’s shoes.
