What happens when you parent them to their foot with inhibit bends ON?

I suppose you load one shoe. Pose it over tis foot, then parent it to that foot?
Then load the second shoe. Pose it over its foot, then parent it to that foot?

I would repeat those steps but parent wiht inhibit bends checked ON.

See what gives.
