Does anyone find these shoes attractive? just wondering.
Hi Wendy!
I’m a little puzzled by this style, but things tend to grow on me. I’ll see how they work on the cutting edge people first.
I’m with Fernando on these-I find them perplexing too!
I think they’re a bit weird and I wonder if they’re confortable in walk.
Somehow, those just look WRONG.
How would you walk in them without shuffling or falling?!
I now understand the physics behind it (cantilever etc…) but I’ve yet to find a pair that takes my aesthetic fancy…
Did you try a pair of the MJs in Paris?
just because the price is a bit better (yeah because I have a fw hundred to throw around, ha ha ha) does not make it any more desirable. *eyes it maliciously* maybe the Jumper Ranger / Vag Story Girl would appreciate these, I sure as hell don’t.
very schiaparelli.
marc is a genius but i wouldn’t wear them.
I’m with Fernando: Perplexed.
Ha! I love that Fernando was pondering a shoe in Paris. Clearly he shows interest in the important things in life.
I just can’t get on board with those things.
Maybe I’m crazy, but I do have an attraction to “unusual fashion!” I own a pair of the misplaced heels by Marc and they’re actually the most comfortable designer shoes I own! Better than the Jil Saunder reverse heel flats – talk about painful looking!

Vyque, I MUST see a photo of you wearing those shoes! That would be awesome. Is there one that I’ve missed?
I’ll be very surprised if I change my mind about not liking these!
I was perplexed when I saw this show and thought no one will ever really wear them. well that was untill I saw a lady on facehunter or sart rocking them and she looked good.
These shoes are so the wearer can say “I am a forward-facing thinker, but I have learned from my past” all at the same time.
