Got a couple of weeks ago. Breaking in nicely, but the laces are too long (which is weird when wearing 16s).

The maker of those red wedges and assorted similar designs is "Bronx." They're a sort of average shoe-ghetto level of brand but they do good work here and there and I really love my bronzey leather version of those heels.

I have a pair of motorcycle/engineers boots, but they don't have nearly enough buckles on them. Or go high enough.

Caution re the rope platforms above: the heel might jam your poor toe junction mercilessly into that thong. Also, the back strap doesn't buckle, it only has elastic, and that elastic WILL wear out. Granted it's only like $5 to have replaced but y'know, it's just one more thing.
Blue fishtail-y wedges are purdy!

The cross in front strap seems better to me on more delicate shoes, I guess, something about the really thick straps doesn't work on me very well. Maybe I have fat ankles!!!!

I am really coming to the point where I find it harder and harder to justify paying large amounts of money on shoes. I wear them down tremendously, make no effort to take care of them, and then really just don't have the attention span to remember to get them fixed before the heel etc gets tooooo manky.
Doesn't stop me from going through Bluefly hoping for some mispriced Jimmy Choos to show up eventually but hell if I'm paying even $200 for them.

― Allyzay Rofflesbot (allyzay), Tuesday, 9 May 2006 19:32 (seventeen years ago) link
but 39.99 is reasonable! you should get them, since I can't.
― horseshoe (horseshoe), Tuesday, 9 May 2006 19:34 (seventeen years ago) link
shit.
xpost I know. I often get influenced by the percentage-off number, and not the actual price actually. More so with clothes than with shoes but I tend to hang onto clothes a lot longer than shoes so I justify it to myself, yet still I'm sitting here like "Why DID I buy those thigh high stiletto boots again?"
― Allyzay Rofflesbot (allyzay), Tuesday, 9 May 2006 19:36 (seventeen years ago) link
XP: yeah but you have to take care of shoes! I mean, you don't HAVE to in which case yeah, keep buying ones you won't miss and everyone's happy. But I like finding that $200 pair of Italian boots for $20 (TRUE STORY) at DSW and even over the LIFE of the pair of shoes I probably won't pay the orig price for re-heeling/re-soleing/polishes. And the construction is gorgeous. It's just a terrible idea for "event" shoes cos you never know what you'll find or when.
