Rat Shoes! Fish Shoes!
Manolo says, the Manolo’s internet friend Wayne has alerted the Manolo to two pairs of the unusually life-like shoes…

Manolo says, perfect for the beach! And oddly preferable to the fishy Christian Louboutin monstrosities.
And the next shoes are not for the faint of heart..

As for these shoes, the Manolo is creeped out, and much prefers the visual wit of the Marc Jacobs mouse shoe.
P.S Via this website.

“There’s something fishy going on here!”

“I smell a rat!”
Someone is VERY good with Photoshop!

I rather like the Marc Jacobs ones. More shoes should have whiskers.

I purchase the rat shoes for the ex-boyfriend and super glue them to the feet of the rodent man… This way he can be identified…
The fish flip flops are particularly masculine with the realistic drops of blood coming from the abdomen. Such a piquaint touch would you not say????

I agree with Iopine. (And oh dear, the third one on the original site is even more disgusting.)
Would someone who reads Japanese please check the true original site (http://news.qq.com/a/20070922/001314.htm), and confirm whether these are Photoshopped?

you can get the effect of the rat shoes without the price tag just by living in new york.
