So, I was considering the purchase of one or two, since I wear sandals almost exclusively. I think they look kinda cool.

What’s the concensus of the toe-viewing public? Enhanced appeal? Unwanted attention to a lowly body part?

I think my toes are pretty nice lookin.’ Whadda y’all think?

Don’t know … I’ve never seen your toes.

OK, seriously. Whatever you like. I think they’re kinda interesting.

I’ve seen a few on girls around here and I think they’re really cute. I’d get one myself, but I’d spend most of my time keeping the baby from trying to pull my toes off out of curiosity.

Toe Rings?  
Really, really sexy. It’s not that I have a foot fetish. either. I just find it horribly sexy that a woman would wear a ring there.

I have a toe ring. I got it a year ago, and I haven’t taken it off yet.

I love it! I get so much attention from it, almost all of which is positive. I wear sandals exclusively too, and it just makes my feet look better.

One tip, though: always keep your toenails painted and looking good. If your toenails look bad, the ring will only draw attention to them and make 'em look worse.

I agree 100% with Mr. C.

_Very_ sexy.

I agree with Mr C. and Montfort…very sexy (if you have nice feet and toes. Doesn’t work if you have nasty looking feet, though).

My toes are always nicely painted. I think I like the idea of being “horribly sexy.”

I have one and I love it! It’s a butterfly with wings made of blue stones. Too cool!

Since I run around barefoot most of the time I’ve looked at a few. But I hardly wear my finger rings and ear rings so… I probably won’t get one. But I do think they look cool. If you find them attractive and comfortable I would have to say, “Go for it baby!” And post a pix of your cute little toes for all those posters out here with foot fetishes. Not like I have one or anything! 😉

Better toe ring than toe tag.

Add me to the list of toe ring admirers. Especially when those toes are wriggling on your chest… but I digress.

Can’t you bozo and bozoettes get anything right? It’s rings on your fingers, bells on your toes.

Or so says my sweet Gypsy Rose. 🙂

Toe rings are definitely sexy…especially if the toes wearing the rings are on feet that are intertwined behind my head…
