Better Than Crocs

Helena Bonham Carter was bouncing around London yesterday with her man and son wearing these things on her feet. I've seen this shit before. The spring is supposed to help with your back and hips or some shit. Spoiler alert! I don't mind them so much. They sort of look like you made them yourself using an old sneaker, a spring from an office chair and a sofa leg, but least they don't look like giant perforated rubber vaginas.

They would be even hotter if they had springs on the front part too. Then they would be perfect for kinky sexy times. You could hop on and off the peen like you were on a pogo stick.

I would rather wear Crocs than these ugly pieces of shit.

If anyone else wore these, I'd roast the shit out of them. But if it's HBC, it works for her. I love that bitch. Mrs. Lovett and Marla Singer...FA'LYFE!!

I just can't get over what a perfect couple they make!

I wish I were bouncing around London too. Like WTFOMGLOL, I love it!

Nurses at the hospital I work at wear sneakers with heels like that, but of course, they're on their feet for 12-hour shifts.

That isn't shocking. She's a fashionable woman.

Whoopi Goldberg had on a similar pair this morning.

Victoria Beckham needs to replace her heel-less shoes with these. Or crocs.

Fuck the shoes. I wish I was bouncing around London today. I spent two weeks there this summer, and didn't want to leave.

I wonder if they were at the zoo. That fence looks like very familiar.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was raining/cold today and the late autumn hayfever has started up, bah :( It is Camden somewhere, it's printed on the dustbin behind them.

The shoes are ok, the kid looks happy and he was picked up by both parents. More than I got 20yrs ago.

Actually, those shoes are really comfortable, I have a pair in tan:

I like how their son looks like he stepped out of a republican convention. With kooky parents like that he's bound to turn out conservative.

Neither of them can do any wrong in my book. They're creative, unique, and talented...unlike most people in Hollywood.

I love the shoes and they suit her.

OT: Any news on who HBC will play in the Tim Burton "Dark Shadows" movie?

jaydawg, sorry, i didn't see your post. you think the coil looks "special-needy" and i feel the same way about crocs.

nurses sometimes wear the coil shoe, or anyone who is on their feet for long periods of time.
_____________________________________

Wearing them for a purpose like a nurse (who has to be on her feet all day is forgivable....but there is no excuse for Crocs. It's so funny that I hated those shoes from the very first time I saw them (crocs). I was so happy when I discovered so many other people agreed with me that they are hideous. I don't care how comfortable they are, I am not wearing clown shoes. They were designed for gardening NOT to wear around the street dammit. :-)

I saw some dude in a line at a Burger King with shoes like that on Sunday.

those are better than crocs though. when i first really noticed the hideous rubber shoe on a family of beach-goers two years ago, i figured they had special needs children or something... little did i realize...

If I remember correctly I think those shoes are called Z-Coil or something like that. If I cared enough i'd google it to be sure. They make sneakers with the same coil design that make you look like you should be riding on a short bus to special school.

Those are z-coil shoes.

OK- I don't think there is any medical reason with this lady. I LOVE HER tho! She IS really One of a Kind!! That is rare these days in Hollywood. Come on- you gotta love her. Atleast she owns it!!

Ed's mom probably had shoes like that, he most likely wore them whenever he wore her taxidermied vulva.

Not liking the Hammer pants/skirt/whatever that is, but can get on board with the rest.

Isn't that just a super ugly version of a pair of Nike Shox?

Now if she can just add some nice gold spoke wheels to her hydraulic springs and maybe hang a pair of fuzzy dice or a crown air freshener to the toe she'll be the coolest Chola in Sylmar.
