📝 Show Reasoning & Retrieved Memories

System Reasoning:

Based on the conversation date of May 24, 2023, "last month" refers to April 2023. 

1. **White Adidas Sneakers**: Fact 1 and Fact 3 explicitly state that the user "finally got around to cleaning their white Adidas sneakers last month" after they got dirty at an outdoor music festival. Fact 3 details the method used (soap and water, air-drying on the balcony).
2. **Converse Chuck Taylor All Star**: While the user mentioned wearing these to a music festival last month (Fact 12, Fact 37), they asked about *replacing* them due to sole wear, not cleaning them.
3. **Brown Leather Dress Shoes**: The user is *planning* to take these to a cobbler for polishing and conditioning (Fact 27), implying they have not cleaned them personally recently.
4. **Vans Old Skool**: The user purchased these "last weekend" (Fact 61) and did not mention cleaning them.

Therefore, the only shoes explicitly reported as cleaned by the user last month are the white Adidas sneakers. (question date: 2023-05-24 00:00:00 UTC)

Judge Reasoning:

The generated answer explicitly states that the shoes cleaned were white Adidas sneakers, which matches the gold answer.
