What does everyone think of these shoes?

I'm usually not crazy about anything with a platform, but I think these are really cute. I think the mules (2nd link) would look good with jeans.

They're awfully pricy, but it's rare for me to find something like this that comes in my size. And they look very well-made. Seems they build them to order here in the U.S.

Oh, and now I just saw these:

Not so much of a platform. Maybe with brown suede and the bottom color in "natural"?

Nothing I'd wear, but they're not bad looking at all. If I saw these on somebody's feet, they'd get my attention.

Hi Dr Shoe

does that mean that you know of somewhere UK based where they can be bought?? (the first link particularly). Apart from your garage workshop of course!!

Adorn:-) I'm not a plat fan myself, but if you don't mind them being a bit pricy and want to try them with jeans, you have my blessing. Enjoy! Good Heavens!!! Did I see a posting by Terayon??? It is so good to see that you are still around. Don't be a stranger and post with us a while. Welcome back. Cheers--- Dawn HH

I WANT ONE OF THE SECOND PAIR! OMG! I remember seeing those back in the 80's have wanted a pair like that ever since! Woo-hoo! Someone DOES truly bless those of us with bigger sized pop-tooties! *does happy dance* :drinking:

have a close eye on exactly how these are going to turn out. they offer three heel height options, check whether the highest of the these comes at the expense of thicker platforms before committing. they should be fun to wear though. somewhere in a box of my vintage collection, I must have a heeled closed clog in tan like this from the 80s; they're a size small, a uk7, and have definitely never gone out. guess I should sell them.

Indeed -- in the Clearance section they have a pair made on the same base with the 4 1/2 inch heels, so you can get an idea what those would look like:

Looks like the platform might be just a tad thinner. I'm guessing the ones in the original pic are the 5 1/2. I wouldn't be surprised if the 6"-ers had an even thicker platform.

Hi Shiela Ann,

I posted already a link to "shoesusa" some weeks ago. Your style is my favourite style too! If they weren't so expensive. Especially the freight rates to Europe :wink:

The best fashion is your own fashion!

I love your first two choices, they are really hot. I've checked the shoes usa website many times and would love to order a pair but I agree they are VERY pricey. No doubt the quality is good but their return policy is pretty steep. Make sure they fit!!!

If the shoe fits-buy it!!!!!!

Sandalcrazy27:-) A very nice shoe. A round-toed, ankle-strapped, Dorsay style pump in a tapestry print. You can't go wrong with that. JeffB:-) Hey! How about this one in a size 13 for the office? You could match this pair with about any outfit going. Cheers--- Dawn HH
