I suppose they’re unique!

If shoes could be described as demonic, then these are.

Thanks for that. Just headed over to JL's website to order some, and surprisingly enough seem to be plenty still available :)

If you order them online, good luck getting them delivered. They have started using Evri - nothing bloody turns up. I ordered something over a week ago and once again will have to phone to ask where my purchases are. My mother had the same problem last week. I’ve always been a huge John Lewis fan, but I’m done. It’s not worth the effort. Everyone else I order from - Boden, Seasalt, M&S - manage to deliver the goods I have paid for within a reasonable time frame -yet John Lewis can’t seem to manage it.

And those shoes are minging.

I presume that a 6 year old girl has won a competition to design a shoe?

It’s the description that got me…….. “a striking faux fur mascot design adds character to your looks.”

🤣🤣🤣

Fuck me, my character might not be the best but I definitely don't need to add to it with gonks glued on cheap shoes for £179 fucking quid.

Perfect for a chic thanksgiving dinner, no?

Oooooh, there’s a slipper version!

But these are not John Lewis own brand. These are from a new collection wild things by Kurt Geiger. These are supposed to be fun.

It's Rod Hull's emu wreaking havoc again.

Would have been fun at a tenner. Less so at 179

This made me really laugh 🤣🤣🤣

well they’re causing some hilarity here all right😂

Any self-respecting dog would surely try to kill the strange beasts eating their mummy’s feet. (My late MIL had red furry slippers which her dog wouldn’t let her wear, entirely reasonably).

I wondered what had happened to Rod Hull's emu . . . . .

Please tell me there's not a matching hat . . .

I was shocked at how big it is. I imagined a smallish handbag but scrolled down to view the full beauty of it modelled by a human.

And gloves

And gloves

or knickers.

I wouldn't wear them but I actually like the heels.

The sliders are too much like the sort of novelty slipper you actually get in Primark or M and S. But the heels are really something else.

These are my 10yr olds dream shoes!

Now, if that was a pencil case my DD would love it as long as the price was less than £10

What the actual hell. I’ll be having nightmares tonight now I’ve seen that 🤣

Nofeckingway · Yesterday 23:53

Brilliant. I was thinking about stocking fillers . I 'll get a couple of pairs ..

Jane379 · Today 00:01

They look like funny kids' shoes. I'd have probably liked them as a kid. Are they really for adults??

chaosmaker · Today 00:22

must start designing crap that people pay a fortune for

WhatsUpWithGene · Today 00:58

There seem to be plenty in stock in average women’s shoe sizes but they are running low in a size 8…

Why are do they seem to be only popular with people with big feet?!
(Yes I was insinuating with the use of “people” not women).

AugustDieSheMust · Today 01:27

They are low in size 3, too. That might be the primary school aged children playing dress up.

Here’s a different design of the same bag, with a very malicious look in its eye, and who’d wear such fluffy footwear on the beach.

They’re ‘avin a larf.

Wingedharpy · Today 01:27

Do they do them in orange?
