What the actual fuck are these abominations all about then?

Lisa, it's a bargain: they come with the fluffy removable socks! And then you can always knit a selection of brightly coloured ones to personalise your outfit

(Please move this to Classics!)

Only £100?

To own footwear that literally no one else on earth would buy?

I mean, until Kanye includes them in the next Yeezy collection and charges a grand a pair....

I work in DS's school. I just told him I'd ordered a pair for work and he did this face ... Totally worth it.

DS (3) is utterly convinced someone at his nursery already has a pair of these

Mind you they did dress up for WBD

Whoa.

Just whoa.

I could imagine someone like the mum from the film 'about a boy' wearing these. But only if they did a non-leather version.

Good God I clicked on the link expecting the usual sort of naff shoe but this has taken naffness to uncharted territory.

A pp mentioned they could imagine their DM's German partner wearing them. Only when teamed with green leather leiderhosen

I'm not surprised Clarks can't get anyone to model them!

I think Clarks are having an early April Fools joke .....

I showed them to ds (7) and suggested we get him some for school.

He said "omg definitely not they look like they're from 1986".

Then he just kept shaking his head and screwing up his face repeating "definitely not, definitely no way".

Still laughing insanely at these, and the comments. This has got to make it into Classics! My almost 10 year old DS thinks they must have been having a laugh and would think I'd lost it if I wore a pair of these.

Even in 1986 we wouldn't have worn them for fear of being laughed out of town

They are truly awful. The very definition of awful in fact.

"A sheep has mated with a correction shoe"

LOL!

I know ds thinks I went to school in the olden days.

I keep laughing, the baby is looking at me like I've lost it.

would maybe suit bubbles from abfab

of course to be practical, you could wear them with selskinz waterproof socks

... no, not even then

Victoria Beckham has been papped wearing lots of flat shoes lately.l'm sure she could ..erm.. style them.

What guinea pig shoes? I must see these!!

These are super, I believe you get one for each foot so you don't have to ram both feet into one of these and hop...

I've been thinking about them all day. I mean are they actually real? Are they some sort of joke? Did people at Clarks actually think real live people would buy them? Let alone wear them? They have absolutely no redeeming features.

Wowza. I'd rather wear crocs.

I do actually think they would be a nice pair of sandals, if not for the socks?
do you not agree?

DS1 just said they look too, erm, Scottish :o

Funny you should say that - 'cos that's exactly what we're all wearing up here right now

They are designed by Toogood .
This is another of their creations
Can just imagine the looks at school pick up!

omg how funny
