Cadillac, Cadillac, Long and Dark, Shiny and Black
Manolo says, Ayyyy! it is the hot-rodding Prada Tail Fin Wedge sandals! Clearly our muse Miuccia has had the very specific influence: the 1959 Cadillac, with the bullet taillights!

The Manolo knows Springsteen! Seriously cannot imagine wearing shoes like this, but they are striking. So striking, I can’t tell how I respond to them as shoes, but I do kind of like them as modern sculpture.

I’m with Sherry. One can’t help but stare at them, but I also think of them as something that should be on a pedestal, not on a foot. Sherry also picks the right adjective: They are indeed striking.

Love this pair – they look so cool! I don’t mind having them and rocking the trotters with a neon color bodycon! ; )

If only these shoes had tiny concealed jetpacks, enabling the wearer to cruise along. Maybe a couple of inches off the ground, for extra effect!

I was thinking it would be cool just if little flames would shoot out of the “tail lights” with each step. Like kids’ blinking tennis shoes, only with fire.

I would absolutely wear these shoes.
