Heel Condoms

These are not a joke. There are really things called heel condoms out there.

I was alerted to their existence by faithful reader Laura, who wanted to know my take on them. I didn't have a take at the time since I had no idea what she was talking about. But after a quick trip to the Heel Condoms website I feasted my eyes on these:
Now I have an opinion to share.

1) The name is terrible. What self-respecting lady wears something called a condom on her shoes? Not this one, that's for sure.

2) At $20 a pair, they're actually priced better than I thought they would be.

3) Some (like the studded red ones at the top left of the pic) are reminiscent of some Loubs I've seen. But that just makes me think these are a poor man's answer to achieving high-end-looking shoes. But, if you know me, you know I don't do knock-offs. And these are not even good knock offs. Sorry, Heel Condoms buyers, but these look really cheap. And may make you look like a tranny hooker. But if you're a tranny hooker, go for it! Buy as many as you want.
