'Aiyah, I wore white shoes': F1 concert goers get their footwear decimated at Padang mud pit
White shoes on a rainy day? C'mon man.
It's one of the well-known faux pas of life - as several people found out during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend.

Air Jordans and Hermes heels were soiled, slippers got stuck in the mud, and wet dirt just got on… everywhere and everything.
