Ugly Shoe of the Week

crocs-high-heels.jpgThere's not a lot of love lost between Shoewawa and Crocs, but nevertheless, when I heard tell of a new, high heeled Croc, I had to go and investigate, in the hopes that it might actually be quite nice. But nope, it's the same old primary coloured plastic, I'm afraid, and although Crocs say that these will "spice up any fashionista's wardrobe," I regret to tell them that fashionistas have better things to spend their money on than plastic shoes. Am I wrong?

Hmm, I think the last sentence is a little unfair. Fashionistas wouldn't skip those shoes because they're plastic, it's the fact that they're UGLY!

I think the last sentence is a little unfair as there are plenty of plastic shoes + accessories out there that fashionistas love (e.g. Stella McCartney, Louis Vuitton bags, etc.).

The reason I'd skip buying that shoe is because it's plain ugly.

Although not a fan of the Sassari, I sort of like the Crocs Canvas Capri flip-flop. I featured it today on my blog. You gotta hand it to Crocs for getting rid of some of the plastic and replacing it with fresh, natural canvas...now only the bottom of your feet will sweat ;)

These might just be even uglier than Crocs - at least Crocs had a purpose (gardening), and if left to that, they were fine. Although I think I would like to see some person gardening in these...

it's hard to believe anyone thought it was a good idea to make those. they're sort of like a car wreck, i don't want to look at them, but yet i can't look away......
