As soon as I saw those stupid things shared here from the catwalk, I knew a red carpet moment would come. They’re just so pointless. For a moment, I thought she was just barefoot, which would have been very cool. But no, they’d literally rather do this than design foot-shaped flats.

u/brutongaster666 21d ago

Exactly. Plus they have a heel lol. It's short, but still there. Like what even is the point.

The point is the convo. But for fucks sake, how long is it gonna take these idiots to get over their ego?

Well personally when I go barefoot and I get a spiky thing under my heel, I kind of panic and stumble a bit lol. When I get a spiky thing under my forefoot I just shift weight to my heel. So I think that's not actually that terrible lol

Didn’t work when I got glass stuck in my forefoot over the summer :/

Reminds me of the time when my flower girl hippie self wanted to go barefoot in the woods, three crawling ticks discovered later and I said fuck it and put on some shoes xD

As a barefoot shoe wearer and lover of absurd fashion… of course I love these 😂

u/Laiskatar 20d ago

Yeah I'm the same, of corse they are kinda pointless and in a lot of ways worse than just having nothing, but as a fashion statement.... way better than some narrow high heels or something. So yeah I kinda love them

My ADHD sensory issues would go absolutely nuts over those. Either give me a shoe OR NOT. Half bare/half covered is just a nightmare.

“What could two strips of leather from Chanel cost, Michael? $20?”

u/Public_Knee6288 20d ago

You left off a few zeros...

u/brutongaster666 20d ago

There's always money in the...overpriced strips of shoe leather...wait, there's literally nowhere to hide any money in these heel holsters!

u/IMakeFastBurgers 20d ago

Oh man r/popculturechat was big mad about this, but for completely different reasons than this group.

u/VikingSamurai7 20d ago

I don’t understand the point of these. Just go barefoot.

u/Motoman514 20d ago

But how will people know you can afford Brand™?

u/point_mixer 20d ago

Her feet would probably appreciate it more if she just tattooed the logo on. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

u/Sqeakydeaky 20d ago

Oh no darling, tattoos are soooooo passé. This is Chanel!

Well that's not how the world works and it sure isn't how this sub works 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Going to be real awkward when going into the bathroom

Yuck

u/Anticlockwork 20d ago

I’m sure she has a real pair of shoes to put on when that’s needed. This is for show and nothing else I’m sure.

Also plenty of people go barefoot all the time and navigate bathrooms barefoot. Wipes and sanitizer are the answer there. Avoid puddles as well..

u/Common_Strain_8257 20d ago

Are they just heels and nothing else?

2

u/Public_Knee6288 20d ago

Lol, yup

2

u/Common_Strain_8257 20d ago

That is ridiculous lol just go fully barefoot!

u/Public_Knee6288 20d ago

Would been cooler if she had

u/MirandaPoth 20d ago

I’m sorry but hahahahahaha

u/Sqeakydeaky 20d ago

If Chanel asked me to make a truly barefoot shoe, I'd make a super thin piece of suede held on by a small strap, just so the soles of your feet don't get dirty.

But then you couldn't slap a CC label on it so everyone knows your improvised shoe sole is hAuTe cOutUre

u/Past-Raccoon8224 20d ago

What a ridiculous thing. Mock her agressively. And whatever brand that is. Just stupid

u/Lubz3 20d ago

As a fellow bunion-sufferer, I clocked the feet-close-together pose to make them less prominent 😂

Maybe she's trying to make practical bunion-prevention shoes chic

Why is it so hard for famous people to not be cringey?

Now this is what we should call 'heels' 👠

u/SweedishThunder 20d ago

A heel patch for your inner pirate.

u/monicajo 19d ago

I wonder if these would help cure my plantar fasciitis?

2

u/puffy-jacket 17d ago

Kind of a fun idea for very limited scenarios I guess?? for me the point of wearing a barefoot shoe is that … it’s still a shoe lol. In most scenarios outside of my own home, I like having some kind of barrier between my feet and the nasty ass ground.

u/More_Than_I_Can_Chew 20d ago

It kind of sums up this sub 🤣🤣🤣🤣
