Fall's "Must Have" Shoe??

[ Edited ]

These new $995 Gucci loafers, lined with kangaroo fur, are being touted as fall's must-have shoes... Or are they glorified slippers? I, personally, will go with the latter. What do you think?

Oh my. Must have shoes?? I don't think so, at least not for me. My opinion only. Lol.

i saw them in a magazine.  i can only say if someone wanted to give them to me as a gift, i MIGHT wear them.  i woud imagine your feet would get awfully hot wearing them.  also, kangaroo fur doesn't appeal to me either.

They look like men's slippers to me and no to "roo" fur!

Must have? Nope! But if they were lined in faux fur---and a whole lot less expensive---I might wear them with jeans. They look awful with a skirt, IMO.

B. Gross

C. Perfect with that hideous skirt

I would love to be able to wear stylish shoes once again in my life, but if those Gucci's are the style, my orthopedics are just fine with me.

Who or what is actually doing this "touting"?  I ask because it annoys me when high end designers/magazines/bloggers infer everyone should buy something just because they say so.  Especially when it costs the same as a mortgage payment.

These are quite ugly if you ask me.  The leather doesn't look to be real leather, and lined w/kangaroo fur???  REALLY???  Has the dentist been out AGAIN shooting our furry friends?????

 

Lets leave the fur on the animals PLEASE!!!

 

Honestly - these shoes are UGLY!!!
