I would think, wow what brill shoes, and I would be cheeky and ask you where you bought them.

they are wear your shoe size whatever your age shoes, but they will keep your feet lovely and bunion free and you'll be thankful in your old age, when those that boak at them will be limping due to years of bad feet fashionista shoe wearing, I'm not sure about the colour a bit to little girls shoes for me, maybe in a darker colour.

Tortington · 08/04/2009 00:17

the shoes are so dull, i doubt whether i would ever notice them to judge them

jabberwocky · 08/04/2009 00:57

I am quite partial to Mary Jane type shoes so I would probably buy them. They look really comfy.

pooter · 08/04/2009 01:03

i think they look very cool - it inspired an hour long trawl for shoes on the net , and i found this site with el naturalista shoes on sale - www.shoe-envy.co.uk

nooka · 08/04/2009 04:07

I like them. But then they are the sort of shoe I would like to wear. I'm not lentil weavery, but I don't wear heels and can't wear court shoes, so there's rarely much choice of interesting shoe for me. No way I'd pay $126 (I'm in Canada) though - I was looking at summer shoes for about $40 and thinking they were a bit pricey!

chefswife · 08/04/2009 04:15

those shoes are by far not hippy shoes. i live in the hippy capital of the world. they are fab shoes and i would buy them for £90 because they are great quality and comfy.

Blackduck · 08/04/2009 05:57

I like, but I like their shoes (have a pair of green boots that I LOVE and live in)..... and they are very comfy...

EachPeachPearMum · 08/04/2009 06:28

samsonara I do have very beautiful feet.... probably because I rarely force them into heels or pointy toed shoes.

pooter thanks for the link

chefswife (Hi!) I am loving the idea that hippies have their own capital

aside- Nooka I hadn't realised you were in Canada....

and I'm quite relieved they fall below custy's radar!

It's why I post at weird times

seeker · 08/04/2009 07:55

They are what my dp calls Cornish pasty shoes.

I think they are great - but I also like crocs. I am an aging hippy, I burn incense and we have little parties to celebrate the changing seasons.
