Um...not for me. Sorry.

ladycornyofsilke · 25/01/2009 23:52

fecking awful - unless you are 8.

leadonmacduff · 25/01/2009 23:53

wow
tough one to call. I think they are most likely to be completely awful, but there is a small chance (say if you are 19, edgy and very beautiful) that you might just pull them off and look fantastic.
but it is a smallish chance

themoon66 · 25/01/2009 23:53

In what situation would you think of wearing them?

(coz I can't think of one)

twentypence · 25/01/2009 23:53

They are awful. Even if you are 8.

catMandu · 25/01/2009 23:54

no, I wouldn't even let my dd's wear them - very bad.

ravenAK · 25/01/2009 23:54

ghastly. Sorry. Just buy Converse!

twinsetandpearls · 25/01/2009 23:55

You will look a fool.

WeeTimorousSquonkie · 25/01/2009 23:55

oh no, I'm not planning on buying them... I was just browsing, like you do, and I came across them and I couldn't decide whether they were really cool and funky or just 'orrible.

Not being a cool and funky type of person,I wouldn't be wearing them anyway, I just... you know... wondered...

anyhoooooo....

WeeTimorousSquonkie · 25/01/2009 23:57

WeeTimorousSquonkie · 25/01/2009 23:59

and, while we're on the subject of boots, which definition of the word "boot" do these fall into then?

OP posts:
Wonderstuff · 25/01/2009 23:59

I like them!
[but I am not cool and never have been]

Tinker · 26/01/2009 00:00

What are they made of? It just says "quality material"

WeeTimorousSquonkie · 26/01/2009 00:01

dunno but surely everything is "quality" even if it's "shit quality"

Sorry but I am reporting you to ebay if you buy them monstrosities in your OP!

pgwithnumber3 · 26/01/2009 00:03

Fucking hell, I have just nearly given birth looking at the link to the bondage kitten heel thingies.

fryalot · 26/01/2009 00:04

If I knew it was going to be that easy, I'd have linked them last night!!!

fryalot · 26/01/2009 00:07

whilst I wouldn't wear these, I do quite like them...

pgwithnumber3 · 26/01/2009 00:08

I disown you as part of my labouring group now squonk. You HAVE to be stylish to be allowed into my secret group. So far it is just me, dizzy and Lulu. Have met Lulu and she dresses well, dizzy, well she does contribute towards names but you, you just contribute shitty tat!

pgwithnumber3 · 26/01/2009 00:08

GET THE FUCK OFF EBAY - NOW!!!!!!!!

twinsetandpearls · 26/01/2009 00:08

You would look like a rather unsuccesful hooker.

Wonderstuff · 26/01/2009 00:09

They are truly awful squonk! Now I really must go to bed.

fryalot · 26/01/2009 00:10

pg3 - I make a mean cyber bacon butty and I can keep a labour thread going single handedly for daaaaaays

And I did say I wouldn't wear them!

pgwithnumber3 · 26/01/2009 00:12

I may put you in reserve then - just don't wear them black and white LSD boots. I could do with a bacon butty now but really need to get some sleep. Wonder if I woke DH he would go get me some bacon to do one?
