Browsing Next for some fairly plain black heels and came across these monstrosities. Am I missing something? Why, just why?

They look like the hooves of a show pony.

Yes they do look like pony hooves and yes £85 is way too much but I'd buy them if they were 30 quid 😀

Confused
They certainly don't do anything for me but whatever floats your boat I suppose

I think Next is starting to go the way of M&S in terms of the frumpy and bizarre Confused

You'd want to have soft heels or / and a Soap and Glory foot file or similar Smile

There's a lot going on there, design-wise isn't there?

Shoes reached peak fugly years ago. Those are indeed shocking but I see worse everywhere I go.

See this is just the kind of fashion weirdness that hurts my brain...
is it hot enough for open toed sandals or is it cold enough for boots?

I used to think so too rick but peep toe boots have been around for several years now and I've just got used to seeing them. Fine for a night out imo

Agree with you OP. They look awful. But then I'm Mrs Frump from Frumpville.

Agree OP they are absurd and hideous! Who would pay £85 I wonder?

I can imagine Topshop stocking them and probably selling out. However they don't really seem right for most of Next's customer base or target audience. Plus they look a bit cheap for £85. Ridiculous price.

They're the bastard offspring of a shoeboot and a cold shoulder top

See I have plenty of mainly young mainly student friends who would wear them. Yes I think they're ugly but I don't think it's aimed at me.

Have come to conclusion I don't "get" most clothes on high street and if it's a trendy shop (so not Next) it's completely beyond me - big fluffy acrylic jumper and calf length pleated skirt in Top Shop window, nope, I don't understand, even the mannequin looks frumpsville shit.

Ha ha breakfast, I'm not sure I'd wear them but I can see that they are unusual and quirky. I quite like them, maybe I would wear them!
