Irregular Choice Shoes

[Luna]

If you go to a shoemaker in your town with your shoe.. he'll fit your shoes with some heel lifts... for a small fee shouldn't be too expensive. Oh yea.. the bigger the better if you can't get a perfect fit.. the shoemaker can also grind them down to make the fir the heel of your shoe.

i love them ...i bought a pair awhile ago...before they were widely available in the US...my boyfriend hated them...said they were too retro and too juvenile...which i kind of agreed with...but i loved them anyway...then i wore them...i walked only five blocks home from dinner...and they literally scraped off severall layers of skin...the leather is so hard...if it's even leather...i think it is...but it's as hard as plastic...i wound up giving them to an assistant...i just couldn't stand the pain...but i still think they're adorable... ...i just don't wear them myself...

i hardly like any of the IC shoes. the ones posted are ok.. but i still find them too much..
maybe cos ive seen them everywhere and they are nothing new over here in europe..specially in london..

the ones ive seen had super hard leather. almost plastic like.. dunno if the ones above are the same

I think that most of the Irregular Choice shoes I've seen were good ideas that were executed poorly, and over the top.

You bought the pair in the pic I posted, softgrey?

I'm wearing them around my apartment.. and the backs of my heel are killing me... I can only imagine how they'd feel if I walked a few blocks.. uh oh.

I have a pair, but only because one of my favorite manga artists drew on 'em. Mostly I think they're overrated.

 

[Luna]

I have to agree with you there... some of them are a little too "pop"ish for me...
I just thought these would be so cute to wear with jeans tho... ..

i feel like they're gnawing on my feet though.

Here are some more that i'm getting off of urbn.. cuz i'm lazy

ehhh

 

[softgrey]

luna...mine were diferent...same toe and heel...but all closed...like a ballerina shoe with 2 striped plastic balls at the front...like a pony tail holder ...they were sooo sweet....but much too painful...yours actually look a bit more manageable...and they are very cute indeed...

Thanks Softgrey..

these remind me of my mom's old shoes that she wore... she could never wear heels.. horrible balance.

I don't know now, I've met some pretty pairs on my travels (to and from the shop)..

If you saw these boots in the Japanese street style, you'd all be raving... you know you would

 

[softgrey]

..strawberry...you're so right...as long as i don't have to wear them myself....

 

[Luna]

I only got the ones in my first post... I find most of these ugly... unless i comment otherwise.

More pics:

 

[Luna]

I can't post anymore...

I look at the ones I got.. and then I look at the rest of the ICL shoes and I find the majority of them to be repulsive.. in fact, I looked at all the shoes on urbn.com.. they all look the same... Jeffrey Campbel, We who see, ICL.. they all copy one another..

silly urban outfitters.

Thanks for the tip, Luna.

Softgrey, are these the shoes?:

I don't like the heels on some of them. I think they'd look so much better if they were completely flat.
