Nicholas Kirkwood Mixed Media Swirl Wedge Sandals, £1066
It’s been a while since my last Heroes or Villains post, and when I spotted these Nicholas Kirkwood wedges, I thought they’d be the perfect shoes for the job.
For those of you just joining us, Heroes or Villains? is a game (if that’s the right word) in which, rather than me showing you a pair of shoes and then telling you what I think of them, I show you a pair of shoes and let you tell me what YOU think of them. Of course, you’re more than welcome to tell me what you think of any of the shoes shown on the site, but in this case I’m mostly looking for a one-word answer: are they ShoeperHeroes (i.e you love them) or ShoeperVillains (you HATE them)?
If you’ve been reading this site for any length of time, I’m sure you’ll be able to work out what I think of these particular shoes, but what do YOU think of them? Are they heroes, villains, or something in between?
Definitely villains. I think I might actually be in physical pain, just by looking at them…
Only appropriate to wear when cast as a really vile alien on a new Star Trek series … right before it’s cancelled.
I could almost love these, as three different shoes. One with that heel, one with the lacing area on top of the foot, and one in black white and silver. As one shoe? Shoepervillain.
Shoepervillain !
Bleh!
A word that speaks for itself: VILLAIN!
Well, I beg to differ and say “Heroes!”.
I think they look great and also very stable to walk in. I would buy them (if I could afford them, of course…).
The only word buzzing around my brain right now is hideous. I guess that puts them firmly in villain territory.
