i think that they would be nice if they were made on a feminine last with much more swing on the outer edge, and more if a cure on the inside bridge.
im a shoe designer and maker so if you want any advice i'd be happy to help you!:)

Oh, well then!...;) If I was going to spend that much I'd probably say in for a penny in for a pound (or 6000 pounds in this case).

I really like those double buckle models--but I'd never pay that much. Also, you hit the nail on the head when you said we gals get ripped off on quality. So true.

lol . When you wear heals, don't your little toes get all crushed in the ends of the shoos, especially with pointed toes?

If they're made well, no. Also, keep in mind that alot of girls grow up in ballet shoes and either a)have horrible feet and don't wear heels or b)become immune to foot pain.

Yes, I really want some brown brogues. I'd prefer them a bit funkier as Ms dodgette says though.

I do know where you can find a large market of ladies who want masculine shoes in smaller sizes though....ahem :D

1. Not if you buy high heel pointy toe shoes that fit you properly.
2. Sometimes beauty hurts. We're used to it.

I once dated a ballerina whose feet were the bane of her existence. I wouldn't wish those puppies on my worst enemy. (google 'ballerina feet'.)

One would think that, by looking at pointy shoes, eh? If the shoes are fitted properly, the toes are in the wider part of the shoe and the pointy part is functionally useless, so to speak - it's all for the look.

Exactly the reason I hate pointy toes shoes. I have long feet....why would I want them to look even longer? lol

My friend is a ballerina, she soaks her feet in metho, sorry, methylated spirits to toughen them up...
