They look okay for pumps, though they're a little on the feminine side. I'd like them if they had higher vamps.

is it just me but does anyone else not see the appeal to this type of shoe.

they are a bit dainty and feminine. More like slippers than an evening shoe, imo.

Most guys probably don't. Most guys also don't wear tuxedo's often.

They look like ladies shoes, as do most evening pumps (they even sound like ladies shoes.)

yeah, that's true. me being 25, age may also play a part in it, but i really could never see myself wearing any formal shoe like this.

they are great looking have a pair from moreschi almost identical, but I have never taken them out of the box. They are way too pompous for the south.

Wow - I'm really tempted to cop those. There is a pair of Paul Smith tux trousers on sale at my local Saks that they would be perfect with, and i'd probably have to cop a black velvet Theory jacket I'd been eyeing as well.

Admittedly part of it is the Louboutin Cache. Louboutin makes such gorgeous women's shoes...

they look exactly the same as any other evening pump I have seen.

I don't think I'd ever wear an evening pump, but I definitely wouldn't wear an evening pump with a red sole. The shoe looks like it's for women, and the red Louboutain sole just seals that deal.

If you're going to cross dress, at least wear sexy heels or something...that's what my ugly mid 50s assistant wears.
