Gizmo Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Anyone knows leather, plastic, wooden shoes but what about steels ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Prisoner number 284, step forward! why do those shoes give me the impression that they look more uncomfortable than they should? Imagine having those straps welded shut? Eeeek! Obviously someone has taken the time to craft these shoes. They would have looked better with a slimmer style of strap or maybe use chain. Interesting project though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelheels Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Wow. Those heels are something! They do look quite uncomfortable, but I haven't tried them, so couldn't say! They might be reasonably comfortable I suppose. Bring a new meaning to "bondage" really, especially if they were welded shut! SH Hi! I'm a signature virus! Copy me into your sig and help me spread!

azraelle Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 they'd be alot more comfortable if they were and inch longer (for the big toe). They'd be awfully slick soled, tho.

Laurieheels Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 My toes hurt just looking at them. The design looks great, of course. Except for that toe hook part. But I guess this is required, since the straps cannot be adjusted. They would be great for building muscle. Having to lift up one's feet while walking with such steel on would certainly do that.

Jay1 Posted March 1, 2003 Share Posted March 1, 2003 Azraelle's right, as soon as you'd get to an incline up or down you'd be skating around like Torville And Dean! Also forget trying to walk on marble or a similar surface!

BobHH Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Nice sculptured design! I wouldn't want to weld them shut with someone in them!! It would be a little hot Where are the pictures from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 The ankle strap is a little too high up the leg, but mainly the base is too short for the toes, especially the big toe. The base should be longer, and that toe hook looks less than ideal. Definately very different, and very noisy I expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamyam Posted March 2, 2003 Share Posted March 2, 2003 Ouch and further ouch! I don't think I'll indulge! But they look damn impressive. Perhaps when they film Mad Max 6 - Beyond Brantano ? Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
