Spotted on heelcandy: shoes perhaps even more geriatric and hideous than the aforementioned Christian Louboutin fugsters! Type Z says that the “stretch fabric covering the ankle and heel serves as both function and artful design.” Say what?
Ok, I’ll give you ‘function’, but I don’t know what kind of ‘artful design’ Type Z is going for…sports bandages? Nursing home chic?
All I can say is no. Just no. Just say NO to these fleshy grandma shoes!
(…but if you are morbidly curious, here is the link) 
Man, I have got to score a pair of these for my grandmother. Sure, the 5″ heel would probably lead to a broken hip, but these platforms would really take those elastic-waisted polyester pants to the next level.
Seriously, Christian Louboutin must be trying to tap the granny market; what else could explain these hideous shoes? Three shades of beige, an unholy trinity of suede/wood/mannequin plastic, and a handy zipper with a nice big pull-tag for those slowing motor skills. All the hot broads in the nursing homes will be clamouring for them.
You can snap up these fug wonders for just over a thousand bucks, if you can handle it.
