£615 for possibly the ugliest trainers I’ve ever seen

Sock like knit, beige, textured oversized sole. What’s not to like?

Though I fully admit I’m not the most stylish person myself and possibly these are bang on trend (one which has passed me by). I think they look like camel hooves!

These are absolutely awful. I have seen a few women wearing very similar obviously a dupe and probably much cheaper! Maybe they are the most comfortable shoes ever but I doubt it!

sqirrelfriends · 06/09/2020 21:15

Those are the ugliest things I've ever seen.

AnyFucker · 06/09/2020 21:17

Emporer's trainers, them Grin

fantasmasgoria1 · 06/09/2020 21:18

Yeah just had a look and you can get a variety of colours in cheaper versions which are £25 and upward.

W. T. A. F?

Ellapaella · 06/09/2020 21:23

Geez those are probably the most horrible shoes I have ever seen

Redcrayons · 06/09/2020 21:28

Yep, I agree. They are horrible.

user12642379742146 · 06/09/2020 21:29

Money can't buy you sense, I suppose.

RedDiamond · 06/09/2020 21:31

Wow! My eyes are hurting! They are Uuck Fugy.

RedDiamond · 06/09/2020 21:34

Uuck Fgly even. Not that it make them look any better...

nancy75 · 06/09/2020 21:34

In that colour the grooves in the sole looked like really bad dry cracked skin on feet 🤮

winterisstillcoming · 06/09/2020 21:51

I like them but not enough to wear them or buy them. There are plenty of cheaper versions out there though.

ladymuck111 · 06/09/2020 21:52

They are Fugly

shinynewapple2020 · 06/09/2020 22:32

They look like socks with dinosaur teeth glued to the bottom

Janleverton · 06/09/2020 22:36

A 10 year old in ds2’s year 6 class has a pair in black. Possibly knock off. Hopefully given how expensive they are!

They’ve all been told to wear trainers every day so they can do lots of outside learning and PE. So practical footwear. The balenciagas are NOT my idea of practical!

Janleverton · 06/09/2020 22:37

Though they do actually have balenciaga written on them. Possibly in tippex.

SapphireSeptember · 06/09/2020 22:47

Just, why? Shock Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. They're horrible.

Bella2020 · 06/09/2020 23:47

They're ugly enough to start with, but can you imagine how they'd look on those of us with size 7 or 8 feet!

NewAndImprovedNorks · 07/09/2020 00:11

Ha!
I GUESSED they would be Balenciaga before I opened the thread.

UUUUUUUUUGGLYYYYY

WineGetsMeThroughIt · 07/09/2020 00:12

They actually look like camels toes 🤣

AngeloMysterioso · 07/09/2020 00:15

I GUESSED they would be Balenciaga before I opened the thread.

Same! Although my backup guess was Bottega Veneta, who seem to be producing exclusively ugly footwear/ accessories these days

wafflyversatile · 07/09/2020 00:22

Knew it would be balenciaga. Fucking awful.

Mistymonday · 07/09/2020 00:23

Hideous!

fallfallfall · 07/09/2020 00:30

as ugly as they are fitflop have done a really comfy pair for a few years now.

RightOnTheEdge · 07/09/2020 00:32

I am definitely not a fashion expert or style icon so I'm not sure I'm really qualified to comment but...
I am constantly shocked and appalled at the absolutely hideous things they will try to sell to rich people.

They do look like they'd be comfy though I guess 🤷‍♀️
