I have never seen a single pair I've liked - ever.

Am I the only person in the world who doesn't like them?

What a shame YouBastard, these shoes are beautiful.

I used to wear shoes in that style in 1975, but more colourful.

They're the female equivalent of 'amusing' novelty cartoon ties worn by men in suits. I'm toeing the line by dressing sensibly in office clothes, but look! I have a personality that can't be contained!

Do you think so picni?.
There's some lovely one's linked by posters on here.
It might not be to your taste, but no need to be catty.

Christ on a bike. I had a look at the IC site. Just ugly.

NewStartInSpring · 17/04/2013 20:12

Hegsy and Newstart,freakily I'm on that forum too! It's sad that it caused a fight,it was a nice gesture even if the shoes were ugly. (Sorry)

Haha I was thinking the exact same. I wasn't involved in the Secret Santa so I could see both sides.Shame that the OP never really posted much afterwards.

You should come back,and pm a mod to approve you :D It's been quiet,but now the usual drama is back.

I have tried to come back twice Sad but I just get a message saying that I need a mod to approve me and that I would get an email.

Never got an email, and you can't contact a mod unless you are a member.

These are the type I love. I had these in my size but they didn't fit me so I has to sell them, unwornSad The red heart version is lovely too.

These are really the only type I like. These and my wedding shoes. Agree some of the others are rather ugly.

Newstart my mum was a mod in the 60s can she help? Grin

How can anyone hate Proudlock? He is the most unpretentious one out of all of them.

He didn't steal Sophia from Francis either. They were both single people and were attracted to each other. When she told him she liked Francis more he graciously stepped out of the way.

YANBU IMO. They are just fugly. SIL had a pair and I actually asked her wtf she had on her feet. Luckily she and I are very close and I knew I
hadn't offended her, she knows how I feel about them Grin. I never saw a pair that didn't look like they had been designed by a 6 year old and decorated by a 4 year old!

financialwizard · 17/04/2013 20:31

I absolutely love mine, and I have a few pairs. Don't find them uncomfortable at all.

MoonlightandRoses · 17/04/2013 21:45

Whatever about the merits/de-merits of the women's shoes - does anyone know a fan of the mens' offerings? Grin

MoonlightandRoses · 17/04/2013 21:46

Gaah - wrong link try this one

tigerdriverII · 17/04/2013 21:51

Ooh, I do like them but would have to try them on, not just get off the website. I love quirky shoes, eg these kron kron. I've a pair a bit like these but different colour.
