The Scariest Shoes of All Time

So_Streets_Ahead · 2012-10-10T00:18:27+00:00

They look as though they should be worn by the people of Silent Hill.

Narissis · 2012-10-10T04:04:54+00:00

Those shoes cost three hundred fuckin' dollars. Let's get 'em!

BrookeWantsBaybuh · 2012-10-09T23:59:45+00:00

If anyone is interested in the story behind them, including a creepy video on how to walk in them: http://shine.yahoo.com/the-thread-how-to/scariest-shoes-time-173900092.html

sgoshorty · 2012-10-10T03:34:46+00:00

reminds me of

Snakescale · 2012-10-10T02:43:39+00:00

Good luck walking down stairs

laurev23 · 2012-10-10T03:30:27+00:00

All I saw was an awesome leg work out.

bakergirl11 · 2012-10-09T23:57:37+00:00

those look real fun to walk in

weedhigh · 2012-10-09T23:52:35+00:00

I think she's wearing them backwards

sagan_drinks_cosmos · 2012-10-10T03:24:26+00:00

Fits right in with The Beautiful People, The Beautiful People, no?

Phallic · 2012-10-10T04:00:16+00:00

I love them.

The future isn't going to look like a sci-fi movie unless we actively encourage it.

LotsOfButtons · 2012-10-09T23:53:32+00:00

just looking at this gave me shin splints.

JagdTurkey · 2012-10-09T23:56:41+00:00

HORSE WOMAN

PatriotsFTW · 2012-10-10T02:57:15+00:00

Why would women torture themselves with shoes like these

TyleReddit · 2012-10-10T03:29:06+00:00

Metal gear?

Duodude55 · 2012-10-10T04:04:05+00:00

Now we know where Voldo buys his shoes.

CupandSaucer · 2012-10-10T04:33:06+00:00

One of the YouTube comments on these shoes makes a good point: They are meant to make you cognizant of how ridiculous high-heeled shoes are, and the pain/effort it often takes to walk in them.

Backwoods_Barbie · 2012-10-10T05:19:32+00:00

These are not meant for actual wearing (in case that's not obvious) and is an art piece.

ophello · 2012-10-10T05:35:28+00:00

Those look strangely comfortable.

abigdill · 2012-10-10T05:35:56+00:00

Who runs the world? Girls!

Wildf1re07 · 2012-10-10T01:31:29+00:00

Lady Gagas' slippers

PUMPKIN_IN_MY_POOPER · 2012-10-10T03:16:07+00:00

If Triangleman was a woman, this is what he-she would wear.

Lbones007 · 2012-10-10T03:41:49+00:00

Looks like something out of silent hill...

IHopeYouStepOnALego · 2012-10-10T03:43:40+00:00

Nah. Bitch just put her shoes on backwards!

rwaweber · 2012-10-10T03:46:12+00:00

Finally! I found the shoes to complete my stalker costume!

XxMuf1nzxX · 2012-10-10T04:11:02+00:00

These shoes are Lady Gaga approved.

jermslice · 2012-10-10T04:14:13+00:00

The video is so creepy

HeyILoveYou · 2012-10-10T04:15:17+00:00

pyramid head was exactly what i thought when i saw this.

bitwolfy · 2012-10-10T04:17:28+00:00

"So, how do we make these shoes as uncomfortable as it is fucking possible?"

"I think, I have an idea..."

TJarnold92 · 2012-10-10T04:33:38+00:00

I think they're on backwards.

m3lston · 2012-10-10T04:40:28+00:00

It's like a pointe shoe, but only not as painful because there is some weight redistribution to the shin.

LFran22 · 2012-10-10T04:41:57+00:00

is anyone else reminded of...

tornadosniper · 2012-10-10T04:44:44+00:00

I can't be the only one who sees massive shin splints.

restrictionenzyme · 2012-10-10T04:53:57+00:00

This just gave me some new ideas for torturing people.

fastjeff · 2012-10-10T04:56:45+00:00

Stub your toe and break a shinbone, yep, looks painful.

cruz818 · 2012-10-10T04:58:42+00:00

Pain within the first 3 steps

Boogybugg · 2012-10-10T05:00:15+00:00

Wouldn't these make you walk like a "special" t-rex?

MrMoustachio · 2012-10-10T05:02:43+00:00

You could do some serious t-rexin' in those things. I'll take one pair.

fishnetdiver · 2012-10-10T05:11:56+00:00

fucking.

gorgeous!

hobbitstoisengard · 2012-10-10T05:13:02+00:00

Dark Crystal Landstrider? Anyone?

Here's the trailer, there's a flash of them in motion at 0:13

ForgettableUsername · 2012-10-10T05:13:14+00:00

Those are Lady Gaga's knees.

Jorden1 · 2012-10-10T05:13:24+00:00

I could've sworn I saw this posted a few weeks ago...

SerasAtomsk · 2012-10-10T05:15:22+00:00

Holy shit. Wear a mask on the back of your head and walk backwards.

rjwax13 · 2012-10-10T05:19:20+00:00

What has science done.....

ExplodingUnicorns · 2012-10-10T05:19:45+00:00

Pyramid Head decides to go out on the town.

TwistedxRainbow · 2012-10-10T05:22:48+00:00

I'm guessing you have to squat the entire time you wear them...

thunderballz · 2012-10-10T05:23:05+00:00

These shoes are actually really good at making circles and navigating oceans

throwaway021280 · 2012-10-10T05:28:24+00:00

Autobots...trans..form?

jeblis · 2012-10-10T05:28:40+00:00

Try walking on your toes in ski boots and you'll get the general idea.

Miaoudeminou · 2012-10-10T05:28:40+00:00

Meh. At least they have that front part. Ballerinas don't even get that.

4LostSoulsinaBowl · 2012-10-10T05:29:42+00:00

The Cruel Shoes are still worse.

Bmerc · 2012-10-10T05:30:45+00:00

Are they built for speed or comfort?

KevinUxbridge · 2012-10-10T05:31:58+00:00

Practical.

w006tcm · 2012-10-10T05:33:09+00:00

it's like walking around and looking like you have to drop a deuce the entire time.

MarvinLazer · 2012-10-10T05:33:45+00:00

They actually look like they're pretty stable.

Awesomerdude · 2012-10-10T05:36:05+00:00

my feet, they hurt

joeymp6768 · 2012-10-10T05:43:31+00:00

I think you guys mean this belongs on the feet of a human centipede.

miffy303 · 2012-10-10T05:52:40+00:00

I love Daily Mail picture reposts!

strawberrybabycakes · 2012-10-10T05:55:51+00:00

They would make you walk like a velociraptor

Bakuroneko · 2012-10-10T05:57:14+00:00

Been weeks since I last said WTF, well done.

Mundas · 2012-10-10T05:59:37+00:00

"But Dad, you could never be a dinosaur!"

Oh ho ho, I beg to differ.

OmegaWrex · 2012-10-10T05:59:52+00:00

Belongs in a tool video

Patchy_Burrito · 2012-10-10T06:01:09+00:00

I looked at them for a few seconds. Wait for it, wait for it... nope nope nope nope!

Krescentia_ · 2012-10-10T06:10:52+00:00

If it doesn't work. Add "i." in font of the URL, and ".jpg" at the end of the URL.

ragobash · 2012-10-10T06:12:20+00:00

Gaga?

necrons_ftw · 2012-10-10T06:16:34+00:00

They look like training shoes for ballet

Br1tt12 · 2012-10-10T06:22:38+00:00

W... T... F...?

NoctGent · 2012-10-10T06:23:01+00:00

I guess I'm the only one who thought immediately of starcraft for some reason

schwoopsies · 2012-10-10T06:25:18+00:00

I have foot cramps just looking at these. Yikes

adriannezy · 2012-10-10T06:28:11+00:00

Feels like it belongs to this performance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDXjlILLFHA

God I love that video.

jetsam7 · 2012-10-10T06:28:29+00:00

I think they're brilliant.

TheRAGEmage · 2012-10-10T06:33:27+00:00

In Soviet Russia shoes wear you!

runkelso · 2012-10-10T06:34:45+00:00

You would walk like a T-Rex in these. Just add the claws...

ofcourseilikepasta · 2012-10-10T06:35:45+00:00

They remind me of clothes pins.

Woodshadow · 2012-10-10T06:46:08+00:00

this may be the best thing I have seen all day

bonjourdan · 2012-10-10T06:48:10+00:00

Where do I buy them

hanke11 · 2012-10-10T06:48:53+00:00

Mano's Hands of Fate

inewtonior · 2012-10-10T06:51:14+00:00

I think they might be on backwards

airyka · 2012-10-10T06:54:25+00:00

The Video of her walking is definitely one of the creepier things I've seen in a bit.

Melos555 · 2012-10-10T06:54:29+00:00

Kinda reminded me of Abe's Oddworld.

heftysnowflake · 2012-10-10T07:02:28+00:00

These remind me of Halo Elite Legs.

m_s_v · 2012-10-10T07:09:00+00:00

i cringed

Taerer · 2012-10-10T07:11:45+00:00

Lady Gaga, you've done it again.

Artemus_Hackwell · 2012-10-10T07:12:13+00:00

Looks like those things in "The Dark Crystal" they rode upon...Landstriders. Maybe a crippled one.

Also Steve Martin's spoken word "Cruel Shoes" comes to mind.

atomatoisagoddamnveg · 2012-10-10T03:38:28+00:00

So this was reposted at least 3 times, all at the same time (3 hours before this post), all to /r/wtf. Come on, we're better than this.

Aperfectmoment · 2012-10-10T00:35:27+00:00

I know its weird and i know they are models but this turned me on.

somebody get me a psychologist.

Bummstoff · 2012-10-10T02:23:54+00:00

Somehow reminded me of the hell knight from Doom.

ofa776 · 2012-10-10T02:32:22+00:00

As if heels weren't already painful enough to walk in.

adidasaids · 2012-10-10T02:08:13+00:00

The stupidest repost of all time.

SupaflyTNT · 2012-10-10T02:56:32+00:00

That certainly got a hearty "holy shit " outta me.

LadyGrizabella · 2012-10-10T02:57:02+00:00

My feet (which are already pretty jacked up as it is) cringed in horror when I looked at these shoes.

Creedelback · 2012-10-10T03:15:16+00:00

Well that's it. That's every pair of shoes in the place. Unless you'd like to try... the cruel shoes.

hollsh · 2012-10-10T03:17:15+00:00

Why would women wreck their feet and legs and whatever they'd break falling in these just to wear them? Ladies, seriously, sneakers are good.

Guineypigzrulz · 2012-10-10T03:33:25+00:00

They stole the alien design for my novel :( well I wasn't gonna work on it anyways thanks to reddit

supersparklesparkle · 2012-10-10T04:01:16+00:00

One question. Why?

Lrobluvsu · 2012-10-10T04:25:30+00:00

Fuck. Lady GaGa is gonna try and make this a "thing" I hate you.

Ashleyrah · 2012-10-10T04:28:53+00:00

Terrifying

pharmabeast · 2012-10-10T04:42:49+00:00

TIL you can make shoes that are modeled after a protractor and girls will buy them
