Quality Dissapointed on item bought.

On the 08th of December 2024, i bought a steve madden white catcher sneaker at Menlyn Pretoria. I have worn it 4 times. When i was wipingit, i noticed it is starting to peel off and getting torn because i do not put my sneakers in water when washing them. This was my second steve madden purchase and i must say I am dissapointed in this one. Why would i pay so much money but i am not paying for quality. I cannot even return it now because i relocated from my old place so i lost the box.... Highly dissapointing i must say.
