I'm in love with the Prada Car Shoe, but can't find it anywhere in my size. In fact, I've only found one, and that was on eBay (where I got the pics). Any help guys? I'm a US 11, which is a Prada 10.






I've seen them in black and brown, but not in white, which is the color I'm looking for. Bluefly had the white model with green detailing a while back, but again, not in my size.

If you can't help me, we can still have fun by posting pictures of shoes that are ugly and expensive. I'll start:

If you're talking about the Prada, then you might want to watch your back, providing we share a shoe size (lol alliteration). If you're talking about the Etro, then I can sympathize with you, as I have a friend who is color blind too.

Because I don't want to start a new topic, what do you guys think of these boots? Most of my jeans are skinny and straight or tapered, so I've never really looked at boots too hard. Would these work, you think? Or should I look at a oxford (or whatever the term is for that kind of shoe but low cut)?

I think that they are atrocious, but thats just me. It just looks like the boot is trying too hard.

Prada car shoes are cool. Those boots are not.

I wear skinny/straight/tapered jeans most of the time and wear them with boots. I actually think it looks better than wearing bootcut jeans made for boots.

Wow, I guess my taste in boots sucks. Maybe I should just stick to white sneakers? I pretty much only wear my white PF Flyers now, and am wanting a new shoe.

Too bad I can't find the damn Prada.

What shoe size are you, Get Smart? Size 11 + 7 inch hem = clown shoe is always a fear of mine, so I tend to wear slim shoes.

Another reason why I wear bootcuts. having a shoe size bwteeen 10 and 11 would make me look like Krusty the Clown if I wore tapered skinny jeans, especially considering the fact my legs are not too thick. Well, at least in shoe preference
