Killer Heels, But Why...?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Why are high heels sometimes referred to as 'killer heels'? Has there ever been a loss of life as a consequence of such footwear being worn?

I am sure there have been Leo - but there again they wouldn't be in a position to tell us all about it would they.

I posted an article about ' shoe rage ' in another thread. :unsure: . Give it a read. LOL!

REPEATEDLY ARGUMENTATIVE, INSULTING AND RUDE. BANNED FOR LIFE.

Perhaps it has some connection with the fact that most poorly fitted very high heels 'kill' ones feet, but on that principle, I own a couple of killer flats too and believe me they're nothing to look at! Chris

I think the " killer shoes" expression comes from the fact someone would do anything to own those very nice shoes. Even killing the person wearing them to get the shoes. ( Doing so is not a very good idea and it would be illegal. Hoping nobody do this in real life... ) So I guess "Killer shoes" is the opposite of "They are to die for" :unsure:

A few examples from online dictionaries.

Slang Having impressive or effective power or impact; formidable: had a killer smile; made killer profits; She wore some Killer Heels.

Very good, excellent, impressive; COOL, AWESOME.

That was killer dude!

An adjective used to describe high quality items.

damn, those are some killer heels.

FLAT SHOES, LIKE FLAT DRINKS, ARE FOR FLAT PEOPLE
