Well, it looks like Marc Jacobs is determined to add the strange, turned-up toe to EVERYTHING this season.
Why, Marc? Why? Why must you lace your regular moments of genius with a large dollop of “ridiculous”. You see, I’d love these boost if it wasn’t for that toe. I love the colour. I love the fact that they’re suede, which always seems like a more wearable option than leather when it comes to thigh highs. I love the height, and the fact that they have a wide, Puss-in-Boots style top, rather than one that hugs the leg. And actually, I don’t really hate the toes – or not as much as I did when I first laid eyes on them, anyway. But the thing is, if I owned these, I just know that every time I looked at them I’d think, “If only they didn’t have those turned-up toes on them”, and if I was paying £1,260 for a pair of boots, they’d have to be pretty damn perfect.
Must agree – I love everything about these boots, apart of the toes (and the price, obviously).. But believe me, the golden mule version with these toes is so much more horrible!

If they were regular knee high boots, without that silly toe, I’d have to sell something to get them.

I dunno…they actually seem to work in person, ie on the model.
i am actually quite fond of the toe! but i tend to like more unusual….i love this site!
