If you fancy yourself something of a fashion crime fighter, then the Stiletto Police project by Tim Cooper is for you. Featuring flashing red and blue lights on the toe and heel as well as a white and gold sign on the side emblazoned with the word ‘police,’ the Stiletto Police might even give you license to slap someone with an order to cease and desist (should their outfit offend).
No word on whether the Stiletto Police are equipped with any sort of siren, but if they are, please wear them wisely. We wonder if jay-walking in a pair of Stiletto Police shoes would still be considered a crime.
