Topshop's plastic high heel shoes - just pop them in the washing machine if they get dirty!

Now, I haven't seen these shoes in the flesh, so to speak (maybe "in the plastic" would be more appropriate here?), so I may be way off beam with this, but the fact that Topshop are proudly calling them"plastic high heels" plus the fact that they're apparently machine washable, makes me think that these aren't the leather-look plastic we're used to seeing on shoes, but are, in fact... plastic-look plastic. The picture certainly seems to support that theory - they look a bit like the kind of thick plastic you find on jelly shoes and the like, only in high heel form. Well, they'll certainly come in handy in all this rain we've been having this summer, but what do you think about plastic high heels? Would you pay £50 for them, which is what Topshop are asking?
