Vigilante-Inspired Heels

Embrace Ferocity With These Bedazzled Batman Pumps

— July 11, 2013 — Art & Design
Unleash your inner superhero and strut around town in a pair of bedazzled Batman pumps. These showstoppers are not just for anyone; to pull these bad girls off you have to be tough enough to kick it with Batman and walk in heels.

Heads will definitely turn when you walk by, as the shoes are dressed in over 2000 beautiful Swarovski crystals. Whatever you do, don’t lose these. These sweet heels make a bold statement, as the designers chose to use bright red and yellow to contrast against the black. Eyes will instantly be drawn to the words “Bam!” and “Kapow!” designed in a neat and bold font. The Girls at Wicked Addiction embraced the Batman theme with the recognizable logo, and they also included an outline of Gotham City.

Another amazing quality about these shoes are that they are hand-painted. The careful detail put into the shoes shines brighter than the pumps themselves!
