Alexander McQueen armadillo shoes: YEA or NAY?  
 
 
The appeal of these things has me completely baffled. Maybe I'm just a boring old fart. What say you, org? YEA or NAY? | |

NAY!!!! 
Can you imagine what your feet feel like when you take those off?!   "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

ugly but I think it's just like any other extreme heel, plus that hump on the front and height is just an illusion  your feet are just fine[Edited 12/1/09 15:32pm] 12/05/2011

the incline isn't that steep, look how big they are, that other shoe would fit inside it! | |

They're great for photographic purposes (i love how they look), otherwise - as shoes?  [...i think i can, i think i can, i think i can...] | |

They're fun.
I wouldn't personally wear them but I do like em. 
I bet people thought platforms were weird back in the day.

I'm sorry but I love these freaky ass shoes. I would wear them if I was a girl.
Lady Gaga wears them in the video for Bad Romance. MyeternalgrattitudetoPhil&Val.Herman said "We want sweaty truckers at the truck stop! We want cigar puffing men that look like they wanna beat the living daylights out of us" Val"sporking is spooning with benefits" | |

They're so ugly they're fab. If I were a woman I'd wear that shit to like some big art opening or Museum event.
That's about it tho. Then I'd shadow box 'em as art. [Edited 12/1/09 18:34pm] | |

It's mostly illusion. Your foot wouldn't hurt any more than probably a 5" (possibly less). The real danger is in twisting and breaking an ankle. | |

Yay for the runway and photographs, nay as practical footwear.
I love them, but would never wear them. |

Love them in photo shoots, videos, etc. Would likely never wear them myself, but as much as I find them rather ugly, I'm also strangely fascinated by them. HE'S COMING AGAIN | |

Nay! They remind me of horse hooves. I really can't see the appeal, and I usually love 'weird' things If you will, so will I | |

Nobody has to wear them. Most people couldn't afford them. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

I'd say nay, they look like crab claws. Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |

Nobody has to wear them. Most people couldn't afford them. I meant why aren't men expected to wear this shit? Don't get me wrong, I think it's art. I'd sit it in the middle of my dining room table, but geez...why do us women throughout history have to have the 'bound' feet? The painful shoes? The weakened arches? I love my heels but damn...
This is ridiculous.  "Let love be your perfect weapon..." ~~Andy Biersack | |
