Gucci’s Hairy Shoes for Fall are Actually Really Scary

by
Gucci's Hair Shoes Loafers

During their Fall show last year, Gucci had their runway models strut their stuff in what appeared to be wig adorned & human hair lined footwear. Hair shoes, really. Seriously, though, some of the ugliest shoes of 2015, if you want to check them out!

But apparently these horrid shoes were soooo popular, that they've come out with the exact same line of wigged out shoes for the current, Fall 2016 season. With some newly added special designs. And yes, I'm talking that kind of special.

Let's have a look at these weird shoes, shall we?

Crochet Frog Sock Heels: Ugly or Interesting?

My friend Simone over at skinnydip.ca is always thinking of ShoeTease when ugly shoes cross her path (wait a sec…is that a good thing)? Just the other week, she forwarded me this amazingly bizarre frog high heel from Pinterest. It's a shoe. But if you look closely, it's really a sock.

I don't know what's up with me & bizarre/ugly shoes with pom poms on them, but it's becoming a bit of a thing. A quasi-obsession, really. Did you see last week's No. 21 tassel shoes? Yep, told you.

So let me start by saying that these types of loafers with pom-poms are vintage. You know, like, really old. Which makes it feel almost inappropriate to make fun of them. A close equivalent to mocking an old lady.

Ugly Sandals Brown Straw N21

If you thought those Proenza Schouler woven straw boots were bad, today's Freak Shoe Friday item reaches new heights. I haven't seen ugly designer shoes quite this appalling since….well, I can't even remember.

And if these weren't hideous enough, they come in a flat & multi color version. Not sure which is the lesser of the 3 evils.

Help me decide?

Karlito Pink Hair Sneakers

Fendi Karlito Pink Hair Sneakers

Hello shoe-lovers!

Simone from the sex & relationship blog, Skinny Dip here. Last weekend I was exploring the brand new Nordstrom store in downtown Vancouver, when these freaky pink-haired Fendi “Karlito” sneakers stopped me dead in my shoe-loving tracks.

Made of suede, patent-leather and hot-pink shearling, these questionable kicks are reminiscent of that self-proclaimed “cool guy” who sat behind you in high-school math class. You know exactly who I’m talking about.
