The worst shoes you have ever owned. Well??

Now can I complain about Paul's unbearably ugly platform disco shoes? They are truly vile. They are so vile that Jarvis Cocker complimented him on them. I mean, honestly... I won't let him out of the house wearing them.

The worst pair of shoes my wife wore was a pair of white sandals that she _knew_ were too narrow for her feet that she bought anyway because they were so cute. I called them the Cruel Shoes.

Wish this was about favourite shoes: I have this amazing pair of black platform shoes that are really clunky. Jarvis Cocker actually complimented me on them, and I try to wear them out every chance I get even though it's hard to walk in them... They really are so ace...!

(well, they made me look like John Major's Ideal Schoolboy, which is fucking bad enough.)

No wonder these sandshoes only cost $6.99. The stench of Chinese rubber is overwhelming. I feel sick. I think I will have to put bags over my shoes today.

Chucks ruined my feet FOREVRE. Nude Spock OTM for once & only; Fluevogs only lead to tears, pain & regret.

Worst shoes I ever wore were all hand-me-downs from cousins. Most notably rip-off Tevas with velcro that no longer worked (they'd come off my feet if I ran).

I had a pair of the Dan & Dave Reeboks. Bad on so many levels.

i bought some old navy ballet slipper things and they are just shoe shaped fabric dipped in black plastic. my feet are so torn up

Sorry to drag flip-flops in here, but I had a pair of "Dupe" flip-flops once and they were the shittest thing ever. Fell apart and I always ended up with a dull pain in my feet.
(nb. on the whole, I like flip-flops. It was just this particular pair.)

i think i was given some purple brushed suede loafers at some point but I could have dreamed them. my late teens saw a succession of bad hand me downs from friends and(worse)new clothes from Marshall's.

ugh. The Torture Sandals. Platform sole, uppers were criss-crossed elastic bands (like thick hair ties). In theory, and on sale, they looked cute. OW OW FUCKING OW. Walking was horrid, because the elastic bands caused the sole to slap at your feet if you walked fast, and the tension on the elastic bands caused by the heavy sole gouged out the tops of your feet. Worst. Shoes. Ever.

I have a pair of Pumas that I really like the look of, but after wearing them (not even daily) for about six months, they developed a horrendous smell. At first it was just when I'd take them off, but eventually they got to the point where I would get a whiff while I was sitting down at my desk at work. I liked them so much, that I bought some of those Dr Scholl's inserts, but they didn't seem to have any effect. I don't have smelly feet, and they don't smell when I wear any other kind of shoe. They are suede.

Needless to say, I had to discontinue them, and I won't be buying another pair like them. I hate my other shoes, so intend to go get a new pair soon, but am afraid of spending another $100 and ending up with smelly shoes. Anyone else had this problem with suede shoes, or even more specifically suede Pumas?

I bought this god-awful pair of Julius Marlow square-toed dress shoes some years back (my first proper 'work' shoes). They were so uncomfortable at one point, I literally couldn't walk for two days (my foot / ankle was so badly swollen) - and they were my correct size.

I had the "Dan & Dave" Reeboks. They were really uncomfortable and really ugly.

Those probably weren't actually the "worst" shoes I ever owned, which were more likely some craps from payless, but that was the best answer I could think of.

Polo Sport topsider-type deck shoes in navy leather and white canvas with neon yellow accents. Don't ask.

I once bought some black leather Nikes with a red swoosh and white base. I think I wore those for a few weeks before deciding I hated how they looked. In terms of the ugliest shoes I've bought, those come close. The shoes I have right now are lame, too. They are K-Swiss and super comfy, but they are pure black and look like the type of shoes service and retail workers wear when they need something comfortable that is black for a dress code.

y r chucks the worst

They kind of assume your foot is a pancake, when it is in fact a foot and requires the support and love a foot needs. You shouldn't be able to feel everything you're stepping upon.

The GROMMETS heat up in the hot summer sun and bcz the canvas tongue is so thin you get grommet-row foot burn. And the plastic toe cap lines up with my toe joints to irritate them. And I associate them w/being saddo 15-yr-old bcz mine had all SY lyrics all written on 'em by me, until I realized they were an insult to all human feet and stopped buying/wearing them.
