Whoa, this Pleaser Women's Ballet Ankle Boot ($138) should come with a serious warning. How about,"Likely to cause a broken ankle"? I've seen some crazy footwear, but this is asking for a hospital bill. I just don't see how anyone can walk in them. It's part ballet shoe, part stiletto, entirely nuts. I'm staying away, what about you?

These shoes aren't meant to be walked in. They're basically a form of bondage for sexual fetish play or photography, and the woman (generally in some sort of submissive role) is meant to be immobile or carried.
1alrighty then
2They don't even have the support of a good ballet shoe. How awful.
3Torture. Not to mention hideous.
4They may be decent if they were normal stilleto boots, but this here, the whole stilletoed ballet boot deally is just kind of dumb and your feet would be killing you after 5 minutes of walking. Ugh. watch, these are going to be the next popular type of shoe and women are going to have another painful standard of beauty to live up to. P
5I think skigurl said it best: alrighty then, indeed.
6I would love to see someone try and walk down the street in them. Not me, mind you ... I prefer flats!
7just so weird
8Ummm, this could do serious damage to someone's feet. Not okay.
9i agree with the first anonymous poster. id hope nobody bought them with the intent to wear them out; but it seems more like a bondage/sex/for show thing. just how sometimes i buy sexy underwear to take photos in or surprise the boyfriend with, but dont actually use them otherwise.
10especially with a brand name like "pleaser" and take a look at the other shoes in their line, they all kind of scream just for play to me.
11Beyonce and her dancers actually wore these shoes or something like them in the music video for "Green Light".
12WHOA!!! is right. Wonders never cease.
13Just the sight of them makes me cringe in pain!!! No, no, no!
14if i was dating a guy who had this in his fantasy, i'd dump him on the spot
15total louboutin knock-off from years ago!
16Those are sex/fetish shoes. Why is fabsugar having this ridiculous poll about them?
Snarkypants...to his or her own.
17yah total fetish, nobody can actually walk kin these, well i have yet to see it anyway.
18lol, snarky, and agreed. anything involving these shoes is probably not for me.... they're just sorta hideous.
19lady gaga wore these in a photoshoot she did when she first started out when just dance became a hit
20They don't have the support of real ballet shoes. The reason most women can't go en pointe, like ballerinas, is that they don't have the ankle and leg strength, which takes years to build up. This is an accident waiting to happen.
21Yeah, Nice one Fabsugar. Posting a serious poll on a not-for-actually-use fetish shoe? Way to confuse everyone. Next time do your research and provide proper context. Thanks.
22painful fetish shoes no thanks. i can barely stand reg heels
23what the f*ck
24looks like the ones used in rae's first photoshoot for antm cycle 13 (the ballerina pic)
25I saw these in England 5 years ago! They are crazy over there and they're crazy over here.
26For the runway but not everyday
27Ouch! Those were kind of pointless to make. Who is honestly going to wear those? And who could do a walk down the runway in those too.
28I love mine. I wear them everywhere -- at work, vacuuming,driving my manual transmission car.
29wow, those are just hideously ugly!
30Good Lord what is the world coming to.
