curse you, Abbott!

What’s the catch? Instant back spasms? Made by slaves? Wait, ALL the shoes we buy are made by slaves...

Ooh Abbott, those are very nice! Do they run true to size?

This aren’t Teh Cheep, but can we make this the new New Shoes thread? We can? GOOD! Because I’m buying these next week:

And maybe also these? Just because I’ve been wanting white boots:

I’m still stuck at “pop a gross of boners”

these shoes cost three hundred dollars

these shoes cost three hundred dollars

these shoes cost three hundred fuckin’ dollars

let’s get ’em!

ohgod, those black boots are great

i like the white ones too

nyc shoe shopping/spazzing, pls?

Of course, but I’m ordering those online! Haha. We can take you to Century 21 for discount everything (including Marc Jacobs but still usually $200+!!) and Sigerson Morrison to drool.

oooh

those boots are adorable, Laurel! both pairs.

I recently bought a pair that look roughly like these (I just spent far too long trying to find a picture of the exact pair):

mine have a buckle on the ankle, though, and white stitching.

now I’m thinking I need white boots, too.

I bought these at the weekend. They’re plastic and cheap and I got them cheaper and they make my legs look thinner than they are, when I wear them with opaque tights.

The black ones.

DO people actually wear them because they find’em cute? *barf*

Paisley Cowboy Boots. Ohigod, I want them:

I wonder if I can get my mum to order them, if they’d arrive in time for her to bring them.

AHHHHHHH SCARY

ALLY’S WEDDING THREAD TO THREAD.

those paisley boots are beautiful.

I can’t stop looking at the scary toe-boots!

lolz, before I actually read the order I thought Ethan was buying himself girlyboots.

for a minute i had a supercrush on unfamiliar girl on familiar bus last night on the way home. then i saw her boots and it was :( all the way around.

Why, were they Uggs?

no, they weren’t quite that bad. but still, i think they were suede (great idea in the slush) and sort of a dark buff color? it was like those boots were attractive girl anti-matter. i silently judged her to be functionally retarded.

whoa, those are like foot-binding dominatrix shoes. creepy.

Yes, those people’s idea of “high” heels are 4–6“ and up, but even with ultra heels the balls of yr feet should still be flat on the floor. The patent fetish things up there are strictly for the obvious.

Performing the saucy version of the NUTCRACKER?

Why yes! From a seated or reclining position, naturally.

i was so excited when i heard i was going to see “the nutcracker” for xmas. i was so horribly mistaken. if you’ll excuse me i need an ice bag and a truss.

Also, TS:

omg lolz at Ally wedding thread and how i ruined it

i remember a story on npr about some dude who spent some time in east africa with tribesmen who had never worn shoes and how their feet didn’t even look like most other people’s because they had never been constricted by stuffing them into leather coverings. apparently they have widely splayed toes with a huge separation between the big toe and the next one. what the hell do you call that toe anyway? the index toe? anyway, when i was in vermont for the nephew’s christening two months ago i saw his feet and he had the separation between the big toe. i whispered to him to try to resist shoes at all costs. i’ll be keeping tabs on the kid for the next couple decades to see if it had any effect.

why am i even reading this thread?

oh, i know, so i can eventually post to dropout thread

We went shoeless most of the summers, except for church, and I remember that as a teenager my toes were still widely splayed out. Then I worked retail for a few years, in dress shoes.

i’m hoping unfamiliar girl on the familiar bus is on the bus again tonight and i’m hoping she has some decent goddamn shoes on.

THEN will you talk to her?

only to upbraid her for her choice of boots the previous night.

apparently they have widely splayed toes with a huge separation between the big toe and the next one.

My feet are still like that!

Me too, it makes me feel like a goblin.

i think the extreme fetish shoes are kind of cute, in a way (though completely unsexy). they’re kind of like what a dame darcy-drawn girl would wear.

they terrify me

They remind me of lobster claws or some other kind of dark arthropod appendage.

I don’t like the look of the ankle-length ones, really. Knee length look better.

Those fetish boots are making me queasy. When I first saw them I thought someone had accidentally left the toes out of the frame.

Those paisley cowboy boots are beyond excellent, however. You should get them, Kate.

i did not see unfamiliar girl on familiar bus yesterday but i DID see a differnt girl in the same boots (except these were grey) and while i still think they’re pretty gross, they did not make me turn away from unfathomably hott woman walking in front of my car on division last night.

as much as i hate all the bars/restaurants on division and the people that frequent them, some of them are genuinely amazing to look at.

Okay, bought on a whim:
