The luk-cha / Operation Paprika Moral Support Thread

[voxsartoria]

Photographs of my Kiss shoes to accompany Cha-Cha's very nice photographs. Click pics for gigantic shots if you wish. Special thanks to Adrian for giving me first pick, and of course, to fritzl and the young Teutonic lad, Sterling G.

Let the fur fly.

What's your foot size

 

[kolecho]

Those heel plates are scary, in a nice way

This guy makes soles that are meant to be stepped on.

 

[forex]

Those came out very nice, Bill.

I really like the waist on those. And everything else of course.
One of the nicest Paprikas I have seen!

Not my cup of tea but they look well-made...

 

[JPHardy]

You and Luk-cha's photography have made the Paprika's more tolerable for me.

Those are vomit inducing.

 

[jpeirpont]

corthays they are not, but they are meant to be paprikas...

I might replace the heel toplift...the metal heal plates are a bit too Prussian in their hall echo.

So far today, and after a leisurely midday stroll, they are (a) comfy and (b) the squeakiest fwocking shoes I've ever owned.

Between the metal heal plates and the squeaks, I was striding around Cambridge like the bastard sonic son of Rosa Klebb and Baron Friedrich von der Trenck.

I am hoping the squeaks will go down a few dBs because, otherwise, it sounds like I am killing hamsters with each step.

At the risk of being called a sycophant, I like these and would get them in a dark, smooth leather or better yet, dark suede.
