Defective sex toys get a second chance as shoes.
Note: The original headline describes them as "fashionable" shoes. It's not horrible enough that they are making shoes that are sodomy-adjacent-- they are also flat out lying.
Now, I have brought this up in this Ladies' Sub-forum because I know some women tend to lose all common sense when it comes to footwear. They spend money they shouldn't, they get heels that make them tower over their husbands, and based on what this manufacturer has to say, other things might be going on as well.
“Something like 28% of the sales are going to women,” Teitelbaum said. “We're hitting an interesting narrative. I think there’s a deeper connection.”
Needless to say, I have no indentions of strapping on something rejected by some latex-fetish freak to my feet, but these shoes aren't exactly selling like hotcakes. (Praise Jesus.) Alas, that brings up the concern that they may be down-marketed somewhere to innocent customers who won't know what they are literally stepping into!
So, my advice to my True Christian™Sistren is to keep your tootsies pure and sinless by avoiding any plastic-made footwear altogether. From here on out, make certain that you and your feet are only into leather.
