At least they look like a Lamborghini and didn’t just slap on a logo.
I’m not sure it’s a product fetish thing, since the AB posting makes it clear that it’s just a design study and not for sale.
Part of me thinks it’s a clever idea. Superleggera shoes with carbon fiber heels are so way over the top that you have to smile. At the same time, though, it’s a bit like kids’ beds that look like race cars.
I’m sure the market is huge for women’s shoes that look like a car. Maybe GMC will come out with their version soon. That logo would look great on a pair of stiletto’s.
If this tasteful concept ever makes it to WalMart I have to warn the women that may purchase these that carbon fiber is only good for one hard impact, and not multiple hard impacts.
So is it a decal or what? The striped heels look neat.

That’s what models beside cars at the autoshows should wear. Looks hot!

You can’t heel and toe while wearing them.
If GMC made a pair of these, would they be “Professional Grade”? Hooker shoes?
Nothing. The girl wearing these is in my heart forever.
Porsche should make jeans.
Also,
Smoke rising from car = serious burnout performance.
Smoke rising from shoe = serious foot fungus or glandular problem.
The Diablo wears Tonino?
They’re not on my girlfriend right now, that’s what’s wrong.
Not a fan of the ‘intakes’ and ‘exhaust’ for your feet fumes but i think they are hawt otherwise. A good extension of the brand… like Cat workboots
… there’s no supporting data, durability reports, drag coefficient #’s, perhaps R&T will do an article on these.
It’s what not right with this picture, where’s the hot model that should be wearing them?
Lamborghini figured out how to make something even more uncomfortable than a Gallardo.
100% pure uncut EuroTrash.
forraymond has easily the funniest comment of the month. I will never look at those “professional grade” commercials the same way.
“..there’s no supporting data, durability reports, drag coefficient #’s, perhaps R&T will do an article on these.”
I think that Gentleman’s Quarterly is going to have to do the report on “Drag Coefficient”, but it’s going to be pretty damn high.
Wow.. slow news day over at AB? I stopped reading that site ages ago.
These would make for a great valentine’s gift though wouldn’t they?
No_slushbox,
In the case of Italian cars, smoke means the electrics are acting up again.
Notice that the inside of the heel juts in, to carve up the woman’s ankles. No pretences of comfort here, just like the real thing.
No LED lights in front or back. :-)
Man, Autoblog really demeans itself by whoring such snake oil. What were they thinking? Oh. Never mind.
Just how large a market are cross-dressing Imperial Stormtroopers anyway?
No wings?
I like intelligent women. Intelligent women don’t wear this garbage. High heels are a mild form of chinese foot-binding.
A tick OT, but it’s going to be SHO-time soon…
I’m guessing they’re planning to build a stealth-fighter inspired pair of shoes too, albeit at 10 times the price?
too much down time sitting at the cobbler waiting for spare parts to come in.
Aren’t those the same shoes Max Mosely wore in his video?
