No...it just can't...it can't BE...
Now...I have seen some truly awful footwear in recent years. It seems the women's shoe market has made a massive turn to the unwearably ugly, and don't even get me started on the fucking flip-flops, it's been done to death and I'm in good company when I say they are only appropriate on the beach and in the privacy of your own back garden. I guess I'm in the minority on that, because that's a trend that isn't going away anytime soon. And I have seen some boots and shoes that would make a hooker say, "no, honey...just...honestly...no." I can accept that my taste, at least in footwear, is probably very staid and conservative, and that others may want to make more of an impression with their shoes. Fair enough. Have at it, my darlings, and bless your tasteless little hearts.
But what...dear lord, WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? Are you fucking KIDDING ME?

Not counting family, you're probably about the fourth. Thanks for stopping by. Do you have a blog, by the way?
Ahhhh yes. But when I clicked on your profile just now, and then went to the blog link, it didn't work. I was confused!
Nice work over at the Observation Deck too!
Rachy, you've been linked.
Are those...made of rubber? What the hell are footwear designers smoking? And can I have some?
I expect they are made of rubber. Even cows are saying "No fucking way."
If it's the chrome button that attaches the heel strap to the shoe that's getting your blood a-boiling, I can understand your anger. But, otherwise, this shoe would go quite well with a hairy-legged yellow shorts wearing Dutch/Belgian kind of guy. You're not insulting them, are you?
Thanks, DarkoV, for a vision that'll cause internal bleeding.
consider that reciprocated, you crack me up!
The Cayman?
Cayman my ass!!!
Annie, I'm sure Manolo knows. He is all-shoe-knowing. I'm also sure he's in denial that it exists...no, wait, I've checked his "horrors" page. THERE IT IS!!!!
That is hilarious...
I am like the only person in CA who wears these.
I went to Denver, and noticed everyone had them.
That's kind of ass-backwards, ya think?
This is the ugliest footwear I've ever seen. What are you thinking?
We call 'em Crocs.
once you put them on, they are hard to take off, they're so comfy..function before style, if you are over 30...
So once you're over 30, you stop caring what you look like? Why not just put on 100 pounds, throw on a Mumu and call it quits? I am well over 30, and have found that yes, there are comfortable shoes out there that don't look like you've given up.
no, these are ulta cool...they say hip, fun...free-spirited..every day is a day at the beach...
after 30 i quit trolloping around in CFM shoes only to get home from a date and have the guy wrap my feet in bandaids instead of massage...
They may say hip, fun, free-spirited to you. To me, they say aging, dreary, smelly hippie. They're worse than birkenstocks, which are also fucking horrible, don't get me started. Wear what you like, you have every right in the world to look like you don't give a shit anymore.
That's cool...damn, I wish Berkely wasn't 6 hours away...
