Zan sandals by Gwen Stefani's line L.A.M.B are edgy stilettos filled with straps, buckles and large treaded 1-inch platforms. The 5-inch skinny high heels have a gold zipper in the back for the perfect bootie-sandal effect.
My favorite part about the Zan sandal has to be the large tread on the bottom of the platform. While most treads are usually hidden, the Zan sandal displays it for everyone to see.
Implications - These are definitely fierce heels that are not for the shy. Strut your stuff down the sidewalk in these bold babies and you're sure to stop traffic. Slip into these spicy kicks and hit the town.
