Stripper shoes!

You know, they say that the extreme always makes an impression. Just for the record, I couldn't even walk, let alone dance, in any of the shoes featured in this post. Yet I have this bizarre fascination with the engineering of them, the ridiculous exaggeration, even the lighthearted fun of them. I had see through shoes once, and my feet looked all smooshed and weird in them, and they never made it out of the house. See what you think. . . Yes, the disco balls roll around whilst you're dancing.
For when you want a little goth touch.



Dice, poker chips and mini playing cards. Ante up!


Seriously, there's a mini light up stripper inside the sole of the shoe! Does it get any more fab than this?



Not sure what the Asian characters say, so insert your own joke/translation here.




Love, love, love the cherry embroidery.





Hot dog, they glow in the dark! Magical.



Kinda like those sneakers you had as a kid that lit up when you walked.




Okay, these absolutely scream, "Drag Queen!"




Gloriously, ridiculously implausible.




Almost demure. . . for eight inch platform heels.




These have a glow in the dark tip jar right in the see through sole! Practical and stylish.
Yeah, don't you secretly want a pair?

  7. Well, there's actually a whole science behind these shoes......

    The slick plastic helps pole dancers stay on the pole better when they are doing fancy tricks because the plastic likes to stick to the metal of the pole. It's almost like a safety precaution. Isn't that funny? These shoes? Safety? HAH!
