Ugly Shoe of the Week

Oh, Chie. You just make this column a little too easy, don't you! I know your footwear is well known for its comfort factor, but it baffles me that to make a comfortable shoe, you have to sacrifice style and beauty. It's my understanding that Louboutin's heels are some of the most comfortable on earth, but you don't see ol' Christian making seriously ugly shoes (well, not often, anyway). I guess there'll be some lovely ladies who fancy a pair of pilgrim-styled, heeled moccasins out there; and who might be able to make something of these, but really? I suggest it's back to the drawing board for you! So, what will this ugliness cost? A square $345 from ShopBop.
