I LOVE them, but my three go-to people (gf, best friend & sister) all hate them. Is my judgement seriously warped?! I’m thinking with jeans or wide legged black trousers...

Not hideous. But i think you need to be really fly to wear them. If you've got the whole combo then go for them. I also think £110 is a lot!

Like the snake skin, don't like the crossover.

Hideous. But I'm old and unfashionable!

Christ, didn't look at the price! No way for £110!

I have them in navy. Always get comments! Look good with boyfriend jeans.

I don't like the pattern but like the style, pretty expensive though. Shoealholics do Kurt Geiger and Michael kor similar but much cheaper.

I might actually have to order them now, and I really shouldn't spend that money. But they are fab. A bit edgy for me, but that's no bad thing.

I would like them if I had smaller feet on my size 8’s no way

I really don’t like them.

What would you wear them with? If you’re not entirely sure then don’t spend £100 on them.

IMO the style is nice but not the pattern , also they don't look like over £100 worth of shoe.

If you can afford it and really like them then our opinions are irrelevant though.

Like the style of shoe.

Don't like material and hate the price!

If you like animal print look at Air and Grace ones.

I can see why people like them, but I think the sole is too white and thick, and the crossover of the pattern ends up making them look a bit weird. And they look clunky.

The phrase 'brother creepers' leapt into my mind.

I'm afraid it is an absolute definite no from me.

They look like something from Hotter Shoes.
