Gun-Inspired Shoes

Violent Footwear Featuring Ammunition and Pistol Shapes

— January 17, 2009 — Fashion
Trend Hunter did a feature on the irrepressible and controversial queen of pop Madonna showing off a pair of shoes with the heels fashioned as hand guns. Predictably, the gun-toting footwear caught a lot of heat from some anti-violence organizations.

In view of that reaction to the pop icon’s shoes, it is safe to say that the ammunition-inspired footwear in the gallery might bring about a hissy fit by the general public, or even an anti-violence movement.

In a sick kind of way, however, I find some of the heat-packing footgear in the gallery intriguing, if not attractive.
