Marc Jacobs debuted these shoes during fashion week in September, since this blog didn’t exist then, I didn’t write about them. They seemed good for the runway and good for editorials, but I never thought anyone would wear them out!
Parker Posy has obviously proven me wrong.

They look pretty uncomfortable. What do you think?

That looks like a great way to break an ankle. Seriously, I can’t figure out how people walk in those things.
I agree with Lisa, that looks like an accident waiting to happen.
I agree with you guys, they look kind of cool, but ultra uncomfortable. Can you imagine clubbing in those things?
Surely if you lean backwards by accident, you’d end up launching yourself into a full blown backflip?
whaaat the eff?! omg i HAVE to pass these onto molls for her makes my feet hurt!!
I hope to god she doesn’t have to move any faster than 1 mph in those shoes or her poor ankles are done for.
All 20+ bones in my feet are hurting just looking at that picture.
oh lord. that looks quite uncomfortable, and ugly. my feet have sympathy pains. high heels are already so unnatural for feet, but those look even worse
i’d be on my ass in those things faster than…i dunno, something that’s really fast.
No way! Gotta agree with Tia, I would be on my ass half the time wearing those things!
Those shoes are sexy..
Oh and I tagged you for a meme!
Oh my god, I would most certainly trip and fall on my ass!
Too much “creative freedom” + no one to tell you it’s a bad idea = designing these shoes.
Ouch, there’s no way I’d even attempt to wear those. I think wearing ice skates out and about would be easier.
