And who of sane mind would wear them?

I can't believe the price

Cornettoninja · 08/02/2019 13:38

They’re hilarious! £300+?!? Someone’s having a laugh Grin

I can imagine some young funky alternative wearing them. All power to them I suppose.

Hey there's an extra 20% off if you add them to your cart. That's a completely reasonable price to pay for your new Elf trainers. Grin

PurplePepperEater · 08/02/2019 13:40

They’re elf shoes!

elQuintoConyo · 08/02/2019 13:43

But...but...a pair of shoes are for life, not just for Christmas! [Fgrin]

They're for wearing in the pantomime - Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves

Hahaha, I like interesting boots but they're a bit too wild. They'll look even weirder when somebody's stepped on the pointy bits when you're on the bus and they've gone skew-whiff.

Ffs someone posted about these a couple of weeks ago and they had only just stopped coming up in the ads.

There going to stalk me all over again!

Hamandcrispsandwich · 08/02/2019 14:17

The blurb about them says: "The unmistakably curly toes of Loewe's burgundy-tone sneakers were inspired by a pair of Moroccan slippers Jonathan Anderson once owned"

Is that meant to be impressive? Who the fuck is John Anderson? I think he might have resealed our shower tray last year. Why would we give a shit that these shoes are "inspired" by a manky old pair of slippers this twat owned back in the late 1990s?

Ginkythefangedhellpigofdoom · 08/02/2019 14:34

No apologies needed.

It's entirely my fault for being nosey! Blush

I suspect we may not be part of the target demographic daaaahhhhling.

LakieLady · 08/02/2019 14:41

Is this Jonathan Anderson the Anderson in JW Anderson?

If so, he designs some bloody weird clothes.

spanishwife · 08/02/2019 14:43

We already had this thread a few weeks ago.. or am I experiencing deja vu?

LakieLady · 08/02/2019 14:44

Here you go

The jumper looks like someone designed it as a joke and the skirt looks like the sort of hippy shite you could pick up for a couple of quid in the market around 1970.

Holy crap! Those shoes remind me of that horrible bit in The Wizard of Oz when the witches feet curl up! shudder

snop · 08/02/2019 15:00

Omg, who would by those

Cornettoninja · 08/02/2019 15:21

JW Anderson - the shop that charges you the same price for a key ring and a T-shirt (both circ £140).

Do rich people have a blind spot full of stupid and, well, blindness when it comes to fashion?
