I have to say...Pretty ******* gross. But that is just my opinion.

I think #1 is the go to shoe for the 7 dwarves.

They look home made in a bad way, the grainy leather looks extremely cheap and has no shape whatsoever - again - in a bad way. Pretty cool if you know who made them, I'm sure they'll get better with time if they keep at it. As far as wearable shoes go though, I'd avoid these like the plague.

The second and third ones are cool, would wear. First ones are too much wallabee as stated.

The first one is too wallabee.
The second one is interesting if you had the right style.
The third is a blob.

If you get the third one, make sure and use a shoe tree. You wouldn't want it to lose its shape.
