Modcloth Trademark Sparkle Flat in "Sterling" size 9

Modcloth Trademark Sparkle Flat color: Sterling (gunmetal/dark silver glitter) size 9 Beautiful, statement oxford style flat shoe. Minimal shedding glitter. See photos for wear- purchased from Modcloth in 2016 and worn once. From how they were stored, the top 2 lace holes on the right shoe are slightly torn. THis isn't noticable when the laces are tied. Also, there is visible glue inside the shoe (I assume from manufacturing-- it was there when I purchased).
