Hate It or Love It? Shoes With No Heels!

February 28, 2008

Check out these different shoes that are quickly becoming the new IT item amongst celebrities. They were designed by Briton Antonio Berardi and retail for $3,600! Berardi says that “When you walk, it is almost on tiptoe. You look really dainty.” Supposedly, Gwyneth Paltrow, Uma Thurman and Victoria Beckam have already picked up a pair.

Well, what do you think of these shoes? Do you hate it or love it?

How exactly does this work out?

ok those shoes look odd but in a good way but they look like they would hurt and when you first wear them you would probably end up falling because your not use to them but honestly i don’t hate them or love them so ……… there okay

I absolutely live and breathe fashion and I’m just a fashionable person if I may say so myself ;), but I am not feeling these shoes!!! They’re…I don’t know….um….weird, I guess. Maybe it’s the print on the shoes. IDK!! I just don’t it.

IF YOUR GOING TO KILL YOURSELF AT LEAST DO IT FASHIONABLE!!!!!!!!!!

That is going to be an absolutely Hate It!! People are always trying to come out with the next big craze but this is dangerous and stupid and someone could really get hurt…not to mention the fact that the design of the actual shoe is ugly as hell The print is fly and all but I’ll stick with Christian Louboutin.

HATED IT! Those look dumb…
Dalia on February 28, 2008 at 2:34 pm #

This is just stupid!

These shoes are not fashionable. They are just plain stupid.

These designers want us to be as dumb as they are and buy them.

HATE IT!

Who ever created this shoe is a misogynist. They must secretely hate women to want them to walk around looking the damn’ fool!
Chance on February 28, 2008 at 4:18 pm #

This also makes the feet look like hooves.

What a STUPID idea.
BeautifulBoy on February 28, 2008 at 4:21 pm #

Some people will buy anything if you slap a high price tag on it. That’s why so many American’s are in debt now, chasing a dream they can’t afford. That’s a big HATE IT. Tacky a** shoes. The heel is the essense of a good highend shoe. The heel is the exclamation point of the shoe that says, “YES….I am doing it!” lol
texas mama on February 28, 2008 at 4:24 pm #

my feet hurt just looking at them!
nic on February 28, 2008 at 4:26 pm #

structurally, i think they’re very interesting, but they would be terrible for your feet! absolutely no ankle support. why would anyone want to wear them?
Harmonica Sunbeam on February 28, 2008 at 5:00 pm #

The heel of the show is the sexy part of the shoe. The point of wearing those shoes is so you can have that sexy stilleto. THose shoes look retarded.
KR on February 28, 2008 at 5:15 pm #

I can respect that it is different and out the box. Now I feel sorry for the women who wear them. Heels are hard on the body already so I know these will do you in. But they are interesting to look at, almost like art.
CeeCee on February 28, 2008 at 5:41 pm #

Yet another perfect way to destroy our feet lol. But you know some celebrity will be photograhed in that mess
LDnUk on February 28, 2008 at 5:55 pm #

more ideas for more hip replacements, kidney problems and maybe more athritis patients down the line. it comes with that much problem and it’s still that expensive? yes people, go and buy your death! I assure you it will be a very painful one too!

no maam
DrmKpr on February 28, 2008 at 6:26 pm #

i love them….. so different…. i’m a shoe feind so i love all shoes… let a couple of some celeb get them and they will be a hit… i thought of being a shoe designer at one point…. these are along the lines of something i would dream up….
missy_b on February 28, 2008 at 6:59 pm #

looks painful
babybrown on February 28, 2008 at 7:08 pm #

UUGGGGGLLLLYYY!!!! I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WOMEN FALLING!
.: R-H :. on February 28, 2008 at 8:27 pm #

Hmmm…
I actually like them
If i saw a woman walking
in these there would be a definite
double-take…

oh and I’m sure there balanced in
a way that a heel is not required people…
honeybfly on February 28, 2008 at 8:29 pm #

walking in them will be like walking on your tip toes. People will buy into any stupid thing
Much2much41 on February 28, 2008 at 9:09 pm #

It looks like there was a heel there at one time and it was erased. Not a good look.
Bird on February 28, 2008 at 9:37 pm #

Gee whiz malloy. I was just talking about this very thing on another site where Pharrell had bought a custom-made purple crocodile purse from Hermies that he is calling luggage. It cost 67k. These celebs will by ANYTHING by certain designers just because they are outrageously expsense with no regard for how ugly, silly, impractical or seemingly gay when your straight the item is. These ridiculous shoes are no exception.
msqdixon on February 28, 2008 at 9:39 pm #

those are definitely a joke! no woman in her right mind would buy those. they are not constructed for actual wear. if victoria beckham wants to walk around looking like an idiot, cool beans! but ladies, don’t be followers. that’s gotta be the dumbest idea yet
Ms.NeeCee on February 28, 2008 at 10:05 pm #

I’m glad I am on the laid back,Tom Boy side. That is just doing too much!
jade on February 28, 2008 at 10:12 pm #

I tried on a pair of shoes just like this years ago at a steve madden store and they are really not that bad.
Tyerie on February 29, 2008 at 6:29 am #

Oh hell to the no! Those shoes will get someone killed! That’s asking to fall back on your ass, just watch. Most people can’t walk right on shoes with an actual heel!
Erica Nicole on February 29, 2008 at 8:43 am #

They do look interesting…but I keep picturing myself in them and then falling backward on my ass lol…not unless they are made to not cause you to fall on your ass…then I’ll buy them.
Twanthen on February 29, 2008 at 9:01 am #

They sort of look made so you dont fall backwards on your tail. Im sure Beyonce will be rocking them down somebodys red carpet
gho on February 29, 2008 at 10:58 am #

clearly shoe makers are not goign to actually sell shoes that are going to have u falling on the ground, they are more than likely very weighted on the frotn and made properly so that all your weight is distributed! this is FASHiON!!!!
msqdixon on February 29, 2008 at 11:10 am #

fashion my ass! if there’s a high priced tag onit, these idiot celebrities will buy it. right on bird! some of this stuff is just outrageously stupid and then we buy into it for what?!?! NOBODY on this site is about to go shell out $3600 for them so why again are they being called anything other than ridiculous? they probably ARE made so you don’t fall. but just like some of that crap you see on the runways in paris - YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ACTUALLY GO OUT AND BUY IT GUYS…
Why you gotta be anonymous?? on February 29, 2008 at 11:29 am #

HATED IT!!! Im a girl thats about my heels. I like to clickity clack when Im walkin.
NeoLocks on February 29, 2008 at 3:42 pm #

Hate them, but they look like they could be a great workout for your calves.
grafittix on February 29, 2008 at 4:05 pm #

i think they’re interesting to look at, but i wouldn’t want to try to walk in them!
Ammie on February 29, 2008 at 10:51 pm #

$3,600! the emperor has no clothes.
JCain on March 2, 2008 at 7:20 am #

The things women will go through for beauty.

Heels are already hard on a woman’s feet as it is, but we endure some of the pain to look good. But this is pushing it. All the weight of your body on the instep of your foot????

Probably only ballerinas can make these work. Not for me. HATE IT!
troy on March 3, 2008 at 6:54 am #

Those shoes look so AMAZING!!
Memmorium on April 11, 2008 at 6:48 am #

Good idea!
P.S. A U realy girl?

These shoes with no-heel and short platform are so nice … !
And they are wearable. You aren’t convinced ? All you have to do is to watch videos of the catwalks of Antonio Berardi’s collections : spring08, and fall08 too.
All the models were walking very well, nobody fell down.
Posts about Berardi’s shoes are very partial. That’s the problem of talking about high heels. Those who are against never wear high heels ; but if you are wearing high heels day after day, outdoor and home, you know that obviousness : high heels are just a question of training.
Oooooooooooh, Mr Berardi… what amazing shoes you’ve created !
