What The Hell? All he needs now is a fanny pack. Well, at least the suit's fly. Jesus, they're platform sandals too... Yeah, if he had walked up to me wearing that I think I would have had to stop myself from laughing and pointing. Yeah, it's Prince, but what the fuck is on his feet?

I'd attack him, rip off his shoes, and switch, so he can have my stiletto boots instead...they suit him better.

Man, I swear everytime I see that pic, I'm under the table laughing. I don't really mind the sandals, but with socks? Please. I know Prince has cute feet. He should show them. And the suit is fly. LOL.

He'd be kicking my ass all over the airport because I'd be laughing at his shoes. I wouldn't be able to help it.

(I'm sorry Princey!)

I wear flip flops and socks when going to the airport too, its much easier when going through security, platforms are a great idea, keeps the socks from getting dirty, prince is a genious

We had a ball with that look last summer!

i dont think they look that bad

why doesn't he just wear some of those close-toed sandals...Birkenstock's or a shoe without a back. That wouldn't look as funny. It kinda depletes the purpose of the sandal if you wear socks, but that's just me.

his feet in that picture served as my avatar for like a week once

sooooo tacky.
and sooooo pointless.

when this picture first came out i didn't have the internet and was looking at it at the library. i really had a hard time not laughing at it. the woman next to me was like as it was.

gawd....

Hey...I can imagine wanting to take care of your feet that way...Hard floors are not worth walking on...You find out as u get older...that your feet take a lot of damage walking through this life...It's a smarter idea than it looks...and so is dressing conservatively in a go-go joint when u grow up as well.

i wear flip flops too..MINUS the socks. but yea, much easier

I wonder how many inches he's walking on there?

there are plenty of good-looking shoes that slip on and off quite easily!

i don't like the feeling of "toe-bunch" that comes with this look. you'd need special socks for this to be comfortable.

I think he looks cool.

I reckon the socks and jandals ruin the outfit.

He should of worn some black high heel boots.

Wouldn't have been so bad if

A) the socks had been black

B) they'd been closed toe sandals

or

C) he'd just had bare feet with the sandals



Prince can pull off a lot of threads mere mortals can't, but socks and flip flops are just not a "go" look for the guy.

You guys are stuck on Prince the artist. This is clearly Prince the person in comfort.

I'm not.
Prince. Madonna. President Bush. My Mom. U. Me.
The look is ugly to me.

Maybe, if he had black socks, like Meow85 said, it wouldn't scream, "FEET!"

But it could be worse... He could've been wearing lime green Crocs.

Seriously thought, that picture is a tour de force of wrong.

That oversized suit, that wig, those shades, and of course, jankity footwear ensemble, all come together to scream "mid life crisis'.

Dang, i can't see too good. I thought they were house shoes.

Now THAT would have been a hilarious thread! Add some hair rollers...
P steppin' thru the airport like "WHAT?!"

chocolate1 said:

definitely a sight to see. theres another
pic of him wearin a white suit with white socks and
white platform flip flops somewhere, i thought i had it...guess not!

Well, at least white goes great with black.

Lookin' like someone's Aunt Bertha...

LeahFrancois said:

comfortable, that's what Prince should b

meow85 said:

Hey! My aunt Bertha is cool! Leave her outta this!

eireboy34 said:

Fine then. He looks like Aunt Mabel.

meow85 said:

Or my cousin Helen...

must be a relief to the bones and joints to be out of high heels for a minute! not my favorite look, but his feet, knees, back and hips deserve a break sometimes... i guess sneakers would be out the question...

Y indeed dude, Y indeed!
