   Menopause boots? For when you’re sweating and freezing at the same time.

    It looks like what the doctor makes you wear when you break your ankle. Only not even as cute as that.

    Like a foot straight jacket. But why do they let the toes be free? Do the toes pose no threat? Are they underestimating the toes?

    Deb (#16) took the words right out of my mouth. Definitely a foot straight jacket. Except for the toes. I guess even the insane need to show off their pedicures.

    I agree w/ Angela and Deb.. I totally thought it was some type of straight jacket for your leg/foot.. Is it supposed to be attractive?

    So, is it a ‘classy’ expensive shoe or a brace?

    Made me think of skiing-boots but not sure I am up for that with an open toe, the high heel could maybe add a new dimension though.

    I don’t know if this is where Bossy found the incredibly ugly shoe-like-product above, but you can find other strange footwear here:

    Achilles tendon ruptures used to come with a boot that looked a bit like this; and yet… something’s not quite right.

    Or is that moi?

    I thought straight jacket too. I had rollerblades in the early 90’s that kind of looked like that. They didn’t have laces.
