These are some astounding men's shoes!

Yes they are!

I’d almost think they were a joke if they weren’t $600 a pair originally.

At $600 they are an obscenity. At $99 dollars they are are merely silly.

Some day, if I want to buy non-oversized clown shoes, I may get a pair.

Wait! A Girl that was In My Life had a pair. Michelle had a personality to match the shoes. But The Word was she was a bit crazy; all my friends said “Run for Your Life!” after meeting her, but I figured If I Needed Someone, then no matter What Goes On or how far I’d have to Drive My Car (it was a long distance relationship), we’d be better for the experience; You Won’t See Me crying with regret for taking the chance. In the end she broke my heart. My friends’ had told me this would happen, though Knowing She Would didn’t help–I thought things were going well, but the end came out of Nowhere. Man, I loved her.

Yes, but what about the shoes?

[Becky2844]

You had me till you said rubber soles.
I love men’s shoes and have bought some that approximate them.
I would love to have a handmade pair of shoes from Italy.
But I’m a woman and I’m broke.
And the soles are supposed to be slippery…you’re supposed to sliiiiiide, like in 'lectric.

And I feel that *you[/I feel it was totally worth it and will never forget it. It can be good to take the leap. (Whatever shoes you’re wearing.)]

He prefers old brown ones, I think.

[GameHat]

Ugh, they’re ugly. I’m a shoe guy, and these are clownish.

[Sunspace]

Hey, clowns gotta have footwear too!

Is this a Beatles thing or a J.Peterman thing?

[Broomstick]

A $600 shoe should be something you can repair when it starts to get worn, but you can’t fix that style of sole so once they start to wear down (and it will happen) you’ll have to toss those very expensive shoes in the trash.

Looks like a rip off for people with more money than sense to me.

“The stylish lace-up is handmade from a combination of Alligator skin…”
“Stylish”?!? :eek: What did those poor alligators ever do to deserve being treated this way?

I’m fashion-challenged. What do men wear with these shoes? Are these shoes supposed to match or clash with something?
