The founders of United Nude, Dutch architect Rem D Koolhaas and British shoemaker Galahad Clark, have launched their Spring/Summer 2010 collection. It’s bright, cool and sexy in its own way and very emblematic of how a Dutch architect would design footwear. Solid at the base, with lots of loops for support and an emphasis on soaring verticality. United Nude has produced a striking S/S collection that will please shoe lovers worldwide.

Very interesting designer shoes. They stand out in a crowded field.

Why the belt?

Why the belt?

In honor of Michelle My Belle, of course.

United Nude is very loopy. )))

[Leg Olam]

Sabots by any other name.

[MinuteGal]

Ah, thanks for the additional photos. Very revealing.

Now we see that these shoes are designed by......and I'll put it delicately......faggots who hate women.

I kind of like this one. It is symbolic of the totally mixed up Obama Administration. It is obvious that the designer of this shoe, like the designer of the Obama Administration Agenda just lost his vision about half way up the shoe.

The middle one looks like something Geiger would do.

I actually liked one or two of the designs. Does that make me gay?

I was misled into this thread by the word “nude”.

I really couldn’t care less about shoes — gimme a pair of boots that are reasonably passable as business-casual, and I’m good to go.

But, Heaven (and my budget) knows my wife’s into shoes — and God bless her for it. I find fashion tedious, but its always good to have a wife that knows what she’s doing. For one thing, she takes pride in the way she looks, which has definite benfits (if you know what I mean). Also, she’ll generally object if I look too ridiculous to leave the house ... which probably saves me some embarassment.

The first shoe is actually kinda slick looking though.

That was actually my first thought!

[bgill]

Yes.

[Defiant]

Does that make me gay?

It doesn't help.

[Between the Lines]

Other than the black dog collar they are very interesting looking shoes.

[N. Theknow]

My best pick up line when I was on the singles scene was that I owned a chain of women’s shoe stores.

According to this link, 250 smackers for a pair of plastic shoes.

Snort.

[sportutegrl]

That reminds me of the Steve Martin book, Cruel Shoes.

I don’t know about gay...perhaps just “kinky”?

[ozarkgirl]

Mostly what I don’t like about these shoes - they look painful to wear.

They are neat to look at though.
